I have just watched Martin O'Neill wear headphones, at the Super Bowl, converse about a sport he's never heard of. My life is complete.

Does that mean that Martin O'Neill should have been in the BBC studio during their coverage of Super Bowl 50 as a pundit.

Absolutely yes.

What followed from O'Neill was superb. His headphones kept falling down his face. He revealed the whole Irish squad were at the game as a treat. He even compared Cam Newton to Roy Keane.
