And The Award Goes To...

The only reason why people watch the Super Bowl is for the commercials.  So here are some things that stood out during the TV timeouts:

-Pepsi was the biggest winner.  They had lots of commercials, and lots of variety too.  Unlike Budweiser, who only had a horse.  Speaking of which, what happened to Miller Lite?  Did Budweiser finally win?  Is that why their commercials are so crappy?

-Doritos came in second, with two pretty funny commercials involving a crystal ball to the genitals and clothes flying off a beautiful woman.  Those two situations work in any scenario.

-Peyton Manning saying "That's G" was classic.  I don't know if they were purposely making a reference at slang or not, but that got a chuckle out of me.

-Danica Patrick makes me want to watch Indy racing.

-Alec Baldwin for Hulu.  Weird, but it worked for me.

-MC Hammer is still alive apparantly.  And he is selling his gold for cash.

-Movie trailer for Transformers 2, which I will spend money to see.

-NBC took advantange of being able to host the Super Bowl over Fox this year.  Lots of ads for Conan, Heroes, and even a Jay Leno bit.  Wait, I thought Leno was retiring?  I'll have to look into tha... oh my god Tina Fey is so cute.

Speaking of the Super Bowl, Janet Jackson and Justin Timberlake ruined the Super Bowl halftime show for the next 20 years.  Just look at the lineups after their malfunction.  Did anyone watch who was in the crowd for Bruce Springsteen?  All 40+ year old women.  There was a guy with a Vince Young jersey on.  Sorry buddy, wrong place, wrong time.  He didn't even play for the #1 regular season team this year.  Oh wait, he took a couple of snaps before he was booed off the field.  My bad.
