I don't think that half time entertainers are actually paid. The NFL does pay the cost associated with producing the show. Maybe there are some money transfers from other sources.

Some people maybe don't like her stance on issues. Certainly Fox News has been attacking her because she is pushing young people to register and vote. What a terrible thing to encourage participatory democracy.

That is hardly much coverage.

The lady puts on a very good show. You can rent her Eras concert performed in LA on Vudu.

It's wonderful that she is there to support the guy she is dating. It's wonderful that Eminem is at the Lions game to support the team he likes. It's also wonderful that people in MD eat crabs. But none of that has anything to do with the game.

Swing the camera to show the random, excited fan or the fan doing something particularly noteworthy? Hey, that's fun. Swing the camera to the same fan time after time? Now it's becoming annoying.

The story should be the players on the field not the guests in the owner's box (or the menu at the restaurant down the street).

You don't know that they don't, just not covered. You also don't know how many wives and girlfriends stay home during the games. Just because the TV Networks and the NFL take advantage of the "love" story" doesn't mean it doesn't exist with other players.

How cute throwing Kisses and making hand signal hearts for his girlfriend Taylor Swift during the game. Wouldn't it be a show if all 53 team members on the roster of each team did the same.
