Superbowl commercials and The Who

Post by _bcspace »

Halftime. Stinks so far. The Who can't sing anymore. Commercials not funny. The best one so far is the 5 sec. pizza fade to Gold's Gym "see you tomorrow".

While wandering aimlessly for something funny, I found this:

Little girl burying her goldfish
Machina Sublime
Satan's Plan Deconstructed.
Your Best Resource On Joseph Smith's Polygamy.
Conservatism is the Gospel of Christ and the Plan of Salvation in Action.
The Degeneracy Of Progressivism.

Drew Brees makes history en route to Saints Super Bowl win

By Chris Chase


After Hurricane Katrina ravaged New Orleans, it was widely assumed that NFL free agents wouldn't want to sign with the city's NFL team. There was too much baggage, too much drama and too many question marks. But Drew Brees(notes) didn't let that deter him when he chose New Orleans over Miami in 2006. On Sunday, his decision paid off when he led the franchise to its first Super Bowl title with a record-setting, MVP performance in Super Bowl XLIV. The Saints defeated the Indianapolis Colts, 31-17.

Brees finished the night 32-of-39 with 288 yards and two touchdowns and was named the game's most valuable player. The 32 completions tied Tom Brady's(notes) Super Bowl record. During one stretch of the game the former San Diego Chargers quarterback completed 21 of 24 passes.

In one of the greatest quarterback matchups in Super Bowl history, Brees was lightly overshadowed in the pregame by Indy's Peyton Manning(notes). This was supposed to be Manning's coronation, the second title in the QB's illustrious career. But Brees and the Saints played spoiler, delivering New Orleans its first title in any professional sport.

I liked the Bud Light commercial where the house was made out of beer cans! I loved the comment the girl made about the house being "environmentally friendly". Then when the guy said that there wasn't anything environmentally friendly about it, that the cans were full, not empty.

I thought you would appreciate that one, BC! LOL

The Audi "Green Police" commercial was hilarious.

It could happen... ;)

Letterman/Oprah/Leno was the best, hands down.

They certainly watered down the Mama Tebow ad, which was supposed to be a big anti-abortion statement. ("The doctors told me to abort my baby. I didn't listen to their advice, and look at the hero he is now.")

I guess they backed down when it was pointed out that if a doctor in the Philippines had performed an abortion at that time, both he and Timmy's mother would have been sent to prison. Maybe they keep their original claim on the website, but I doubt I'll ever go there to find out. Dobson's an ass.
