  1. Watching the SuperBowl always reminds me of how pathetic AFL’s pre match “entertainment” is. Whilst the NFL put alot of money and effort into it, the AFL (considering the former is a bigger league and bigger market) still manage to serve up crap. The AFL must transition its showpeace event into a Night timeslot and invest money into decent entertainment during pre game or halftime.
