NFL Genius or Incoherent Schizophrenia?

I can't decide if the CBS football halftime show, or NFL Today, is brilliance in modern sports marketing/infotainment? Or is the biggest load of forced-emotion, just-regular-guys-bullshitting drivel in the world?

Update: It gets worse: First Pearl Jam song (the laughable new single, The Fixer) on an NFL broadcast that I've ever seen/heard. Shit.

Another update: I love when the CBS (or any other group of) announcers all act like a game (Chiefs vs. Redskins) is the most sad, pathetic putrid joke of professional football (they being all former pretty good pros) imaginable. And the one non-former player announcer ends the "highlight" reel with a, "Ohhhhh, not pretty" send-off. That's when you know the teams (Chiefs vs. Redskins) are pretty bleak.

Another another update: Todd Collins is in! The Washington Savior! The cagey, wily veteran! And a field goal! Coronate him! Sorry Jason Campbell. Barring a Todd Collins ACL sever, you're on the bench. You have to hang out with Colt Brennan.
