Nobody symobolizes the testosterone-laced force and all-out aggression of football quite like Prince. But, seriously, what the man lacks in masculine facial hair and body type, he more than makes up for with sheer fucking incredible talent.
Did you see him rip that shit up last night? Did you see that? In the driving rain of Miami, in a strangely corporate environment, Prince lit up the night sky with an electric short set that coulda been filmed for his next great music video (albeit on an old tune).

Best live television performance I’ve seen in a long, long time – possibly ever.
Prince is quite the professional, and he clearly was hell-bent on blowing some asses out of their seats.

Incredible!
