the super bowl anthems

the pre-game

show

before the Superbowl, takes about

nine hours

now.

just the anthems alone,

consume

a solid hour

of singing and dancing.

the national anthem, 

the black

anthem,

the Mexican anthem,

the Italian

anthem, the American Indian

anthem,

the Polish anthem,

the Japanese anthem,

the pride anthem,

the transgender anthem,

and all the other woke anthems,

etc. etc. ad nauseum.

apparently we need to play

every anthem from

around the world now,

to make everyone

feel good.

and we all want to feel good,

don't we?

the game

is an afterthought.
