Recruiting Football Talk VIII

I think my 3 favorite SB shows

Prince
Michael Jackson
Dr. Dre & Friends

Lady Gaga, Katy Perry (left shark) and Shakira/J-Lo in the honorable mentions

In Living Color was the best “halftime show”

You realize there are millions of people in the country that listen to rap music right?

Literally the most explosive artist of 2024

That said, I got, from the start why Kendrick, a poet, probably wasn't the best SB fit. The SB feeds off pop garbage typically.

It would be like throwing Tame Impala or Radiohead on the SB halftime show. But KL's influence was too much to override in the last 12 months. He deserved it, but, clearly many folks didn't get it or understand his poetry and storytelling. It was beautiful, but will be lost on the masses.

Prince will never be topped. But last night was up there for sure. Just wish they had let him play Not Like Us or Alright or DNA in full.

Basketball poll is meaningless. What you do in March is what matters.

Unfortunately, so much is lost on 'the masses'.

Vols beat Florida and Oklahoma and drop from #4 to #5? Florida, Duke and Auburn get beat and stay in their ranking or move up. Is all this for TV this weekend? Bama plays Auburn Saturday.

How in the world does Duke not drop below us considering they lost to Clemson??

Two robbers were robbing a liquor store when one robber grabs a bottle and asks the other robber "is this whiskey?"

The other says "yeah but not as whiskey as wobbing a bank".

it's about time!

Andy Kelly is my all time favorite VOL QB.


*I thought he was already in the TNHOF.


The "Miracle at South Bend" is one of my favorite memories.

Bro!..hands down best Super Bowl performance…after watching that live I felt like something was going to happen to him it was weird not long after that he passed…the rain coming down ironically during his performance is when I felt like it was a set up for his final act before being called home…it was just fitting…did anyone else feel that way?

This is for you @mrMet

Bruno Mars was pretty good..... and I don't really like him that much.


I like your other 2 choices. I'd drop Dr Dre and friends and put Bruno Mars with Prince and Michael Jackson. That'd be my top 3

Andy Kelly will always have a special place in my memory for a funny reason. When my wife and I were dating, I guess I tended to be vocal about football, especially when watching games, and I'm sure it wasn't a secret that I was not Andy's biggest fan. I probably dogged him a bit more than was warranted, admittedly.

So anyway, on my birthday she gave me this nice Vols sweatshirt, orange with the embroidered letters and all, and when I was holding it up looking at it she said "Hold it up and let me see how it looks on you." So I turned it around facing her and that's when I saw the big number 8 she had pinned to the back just to gig me. Good stuff.

Sorry, don't mean to crap on Andy on his special day. Happy for him. But it's a good memory.

Poor guy

How in the world does Duke not drop below us considering they lost to Clemson??

They started out 200 votes ahead of us. People underestimate the gap.

It's about total vote numbers, not ranking numbers. Some gaps are razor thin, some are wide.

Same reason AU still ahead of Bama. They started out 130 ahead.

Clemson isn't a bad loss either. They've clipped UK on top of Duke.

Same here, its interesting to listen to the stories he can tell that happened during or after games most of which are funny.

Respect my decision.

However you did that…teach me your ways Elon i just had to tap “respect my decision “ because it was blurred out. Adding new flavor to the board is always welcome…I can’t wait for the millions of post asking how to correctly do it like when people tried to figured out how to properly post a gif miss those days @TN-POSSUM

 

[MoCo_Vol]

Can we do a national anthem pole?..hands down Whitney Houston and it’s not even close for me after all of these years.

A very distant second for me is Chris Stapleton
