Fox Sports president David Hill is promising younger musical talent for next year's Super Bowl half-time show, the Los Angeles Times reports.

This year's Super Bowl halftime show featured legendary rock band The Who. Hill joked that he became nauseous have seeing Pete Townshend's flabby belly during the performance. He said he is a big fan of The Who, but time has slowly picked away at the band.

As for a replacement, Hill said he'd like to see some young country divas rocking out during the half-time show. Partly because he's a country music fan, and partly because the game is in Dallas in 2011.

"It's kick-ass country down in Texas," he said.

When Hill says younger, no word if he'll go so far as to try and hire some of the E*Trade babies for the halftime gig, and no word whether Lindsay Lohan will sue.

If he wants to go country, I'm hoping that's not a hint that Taylor Swift is being contacted for the gig. The girl can't sing well live at all. She would be the biggest musical disaster in the history of the Superbowl (and I'm counting the wardrobe malfunction).

Country is a good idea, though, especially since it's in Dallas. I would personally love to see a classic country act - someone like Shania Twain, Faith Hill, Bonnie Raitt, Melissa Ethridge, Reba McEntire, or a combination of the above would be fantastic to see.

If they go country and they want to go "younger," then I suspect only one name, Carrie Underwood.

That would be awful if the Cowboys somehow fumble their way to a SB. She'll distract Romo . That's why he shouldn't date celebrities. I hope he learned his lesson. :( :lol:
