TAMPA, Fla. -- Admittedly, I am worried. I've seen too many giggly sportswriters, too many smackgobbed football players and too many awestruck NFL officials who usually act like cardboard cutouts. I never felt this way when the Stones were being censored, when Prince did "Purple Rain'' in a downpour, when Tom Petty dug into his nasal cavity on "Free Fallin','' when Britney swapped spit with Aerosmith or even when Justin Timberlake gave Janet Jackson's outfit a ripple...And let the world see her nipple.
But for the first time, as the lines between sports and entertainment blur into an almost indistinguishable blob, my sense is that the Super Bowl halftime show might be as big -- or bigger -- than the Super Bowl itself.
