Hi, Stile.
I did notice that Fergie's microphone didn't kick in until she was a few words into her first line, but the only time I noticed the music was missing was when Slash was playing and nothing was coming out. That was quite disappointing, by the way, because Slash was the best the halftime show had to offer musically.
Overall, I thought the show was pretty fun (if overly goofy), but I was very upset that the Black-Eyed Peas showed up to ruin it.

My favourite joke of the halftime show:
"When did the Black Eyed Peas pick up Dynamo?"
A few days before the halftime show committee landed a product-placement contract with Tron.

Hi, Stile.

I'm referring to that one punt return. I think it was the Pittsburgh guy getting behind the Green Bay guy and trying to push him into the ball? Well, the GB guy didn't like that... you see, that's just a bit too much physical-ness in a physical-game like football, so he turns around and cuffs 'em one upside the head.
He didn't get mad because the Pittsburgh player was being too physical: he got mad because he didn't recognize that he had gotten himself into one of those rare situations in which it was both legal and reasonable to push around a punt returner who didn't have the ball.
He thought the Pittsburgh player was trying to start something, when, really, he was just trying to push him into the ball to make it a live ball that Pittsburgh could recover.
