The most improbable streak in sports at last will come to an end in February, when after six consecutive years of Super Bowl halftime acts older than I am the NFL turns to the Black Eyed Peas for the big event.

The move was inevitable after the league wheeled out The Who last year, pushing its post-Janet Jackson-wardrobe-malfunction preference for classic rock geezers to an illogical extreme.

At the time I suggested Beyonce for 2011. I'll settle for Fergie.
