Help to get halftime shows televised!

Why do high school and college televised games cut to commercials for the halftime show? I really don't understand, especially since for the super bowl everyone always talks about and looks forward to the halftime show and that's televised! The NFL pays a fortune to musicians to "play" at halftime, but the musicians who are in college or high school and are actually playing instruments live are completely ignored! And let's face it, most of those pro musicians are making a lot more money than the pro players! The band kids, whether we're talking high school or college, work as hard, if not harder, on their craft as the football players and some may actually make it professionally. Plus for people like me, who would like to see the halftime show, it really stinks! I think the bands should compete during each game just like the players and the winning bands should be the ones to play the playoff game! Heck, the NFL could save a ton of money by having the winner of the playoff game, play at the super bowl instead of paying an arm and a leg to have somebody up there lip syncing! Lots of famous people (not just musicians) have started out in marching bands but just for the sake of shortening this post I'll name just some musicians: Gwen Stefani, Gloria Estefan, Steven Tyler, Celine Dion, Lionel Richie, Aretha Franklin, Nelly Furtado, Tommy Lee, and Trent Reznor to name a few. Please sign this petition so we can see our up and coming musicians perform on the field!
