NEWARK, Ohio The performance by Jennifer Lopez and Shakira during halftime of Super Bowl LIV has left a pastor in central Ohio fearing for his soul, so now he wants to sue the NFL and Pepsi.
I think we ought to go sit down in the courtroom and present this as evidence of how, whoever is keeping me from getting into the kingdom of heaven, evangelist Dave Daubenmire says in his webcast Pass the Salt." Could I go into a courtroom and say viewing what you put in that screen put me in danger of hell fire?
The New York Daily News reports Daubenmire complains he was given no warning by the NFL and halftime-show sponsor Pepsi that there would be crotch shots and that he was concerned about how it would affect viewers, particularly teen boys. He also wants to sue his local cable company.
In a second video posted on Facebook, Daubenmire says he didnt even watch the halftime show on Sunday. He says he later reviewed parts of it.
What we saw yesterday was a strip club performance at the halftime of the Super Bowl, he says. There was no warning, there was no caution under the age of 18 or caution under the age of 13. Were watching a football game ... and the next thing you know what do you have in front of you, youve got debauchery.
He admits he could have turned off his TV or changed the channel, but says thats not the point. I tuned in to watch a football game, I didnt tune in to watch a porn show."
Daubenmire, a former high school football coach, says in the Facebook video he is hoping a lawyer will represent him in a class-action lawsuit seeking damages of a mere $867 trillion.

Or aroused?
Oh, that's right. He didn't really watch all of it. Just clips I'm sure.

(66,467 posts)is that something you can sue in civil court over?
I don't think so.
One question from the judge: "Do you know how to change the channel on your TV, sir? Or how to turn it off?"
"Yes, Your Honor."
"Case dismissed..."
That shriveled little thing that looks like Voldemort?

(203 posts)But as he watched it he became more interested, and more interested and then VERY interested. And then suddenly he wasn't interested at all, and he was ashamed and confused.
That nut job jackass isnt even going to get a glimpse of the pearly gates-and that fabulous halftime show has nothing to do with it. I think he mustve gotten hit in the head too many times with a football or something...

Then the court should make him produce documented criteria for earning the "kingdom of heaven" or "hell fire."
That would be a trial worth watching.

(15,392 posts)Explaining what the last parts of the show - the caged children, the feathered American flag turning into the Puerto Rico one, J. Lo's daughter singing, "Born in the USA," and, "Let's Get Loud," meant because I figured he was so upset by, 'teh sexy,' that he missed the points. Oh, also made sure to explain Shakira's tongue-waggling was an Arabic expression of joy since Shakira is Colombian-Lebanese.
A couple of Superbowls ago, Coke released an ad with people of different ethnicities in different vignettes singing, "America the Beautiful," in different languages. Conservatives were so upset that for days, they didn't even notice one vignette was a little girl and her two dads.
I didn't want them to miss anything that could potentially get their knickers twisted.

(50,563 posts)This is the halftime show in question:
There is no porn in this show.
It would probably be completely wrong to buy Mr. Daubenmire a porn library, so he at least knows what actual porn looks like.

(14,276 posts)There were plenty of quick costume changes, but I'm pretty sure I would have remembered if there had been nudity.
Let me really ponder what I saw last Sunday.
Nope. There was no stripping involved. I think the pastor has a dirty mind.
