Is all publicity good publicity? In this case, one would think not. While visiting with Tieki this morning on the phone, she asked if the church was still going to have our Superbowl Party. I told her as far as I knew, then she sent me here.

…Initially, the league objected to the church’s plan to charge a fee to attend and that the church used the license-protected words “Super Bowl” in its promotions.

Pastor John D. Newland said he told the NFL his church would not charge anyone and that it would drop the use of the forbidden words.

…An exception is made for sports bars and other businesses that show televised sports as part of their everyday operations…

But the NFL objected to the church’s plans to use a projector to show the game, saying the law limits it to one TV no bigger than 55 inches….

I won’t miss the Colts playing tomorrow, but if the NFL keeps this attitude, I might start losing my interest in the entire organization. I haven’t spoken with any real football fans who are excited to have Prince as the half time entertainment.

Must be some marketing ploy to attract an audience that normally would not watch football.

One would think, that particular audience might only watch the half-time show, but whatever. As far as I’m concerned, halftime will be a great time to gather some of this, this, and a little of that.
