By now we have all heard the story\u2014under-inflated footballs used in the AFC Championship Game seemingly with the knowledge of the home team\u2014and speculated about which Patriots knew what and who told who to lie about it.

The real problem is that this is exactly what the Super Bowl is. People who don\u2019t care about football 364 days a year jumping in for one day to watch singers, dancers, commercials, wardrobe malfunctions, and sixth grade gossip.<\/p>\n
