The children liked the commercial where the dog and the horse high-five.
Best Political Commercial: Barack Obama. If Obama keeps running commercials like this, he's going to get elected emperor. But why does he want me to text HOPE to him? Is his rusty vat of hope running low? Please, America, text him some hope so he can win California. I kind of wanted Hillary to come on and just shout into the camera like, "Are you still watching football? Are you going to turn that thing off and come and help me clean up after all your slob friends? What's a first down? How can you tell who the players are? Are you listening to me?" That would have been AWESOME. I'm voting for the shrewish bitch stomping around in the kitchen banging dishes.
Favorite Game Moment: When that guy with the long curly hair tried to rip Tom Brady's head out by the roots.
Worst Talking Baby: Dear Etrade commercial checking to see if babies that talk with adult voices and animated mouths are funny yet: Still no. Love, LYDIA.
Best Movie Trailer: ALL. I want to see ALL of them. I want to see boyish George Clooney and bloodlipped Renee Zellwegger in Leatherbacks. I want to see Angelina Jolie and that one guy in Assassins Inc or whatever it is. I want to see WALL-E. I want to see The Chronic(what?)cles of Narnia: Prince Caspian. Actually, I have to take that general endorsement back... I no longer like the trailer for Jumpers. I am fed up with being handed this premise via jazz hands, and wan to now know what the plot question is going to be. I get it. They can teleport. So what, Samuel L. Jackson? (Thanks, Kristen!) BTW when did Samuel L. Jackson get promoted to Morpheus?
Worst Commercial: Madonna selling cheap shampoo via Ipod knock-off graphics. Very low.
Best Halftime Show: TOM PETTY. Tom Petty was awesome. No one beats Tom Petty. Tom Petty owned the Superbowl.
Coke or Pepsi: Pepsi. Pepsi ads destroyed the Coke ads. Pepsi had Justin Timberlake's groin getting smacked into a mailbox repeatedly. Coke ads had things like metaphor, narrative. So 90s. EVS, COKE.

Hi there,
I don't follow the Gridiron because I'm an Aussie, but I just wanted to drop a line to say thanks for leaving a comment on my blog. Muchly appreciated.

i figured i should leave this for you here :D
jumper has samuel l jackson - not morgan freeman.
and I LOVE LOVE LOVE the chronic(what)les of narnia – had me laughing out loud!
and we got NO political commercials during the whosawhatsit. must’ve been b/c we’ve already had our caucus.
my favorite commercial, I think, was the bud light one - “bud light can make you fly” hee hee hee! had me laughing very muchly. in fact, I think there was a very loud guffaw.
best play for me? when manning magicked out of that sack and proceeded to connect with tyree! DUDE!!! that was flippin’ AWESOME! (dude and awesome in one sentence – heh heh).
I didn’t even remember that there WAS a pepsi commercial until I saw your reminder...but I did like charlie brown getting the coke – with the little lucy girl clutching the football.
TOTALLY with you on the baby thing — just ick. and yuck. and making the baby spit up didn’t make it any better.
Thanks so much for this!
I had been lamenting the fact that I'd missed the game (Who knew it wasn't going to be the typical crappy Super Bowl?) but figure skating was on! (Anyone for Stephan Lambiel? Never mind.) Then, I heard about the commercials and was really sorry I'd missed the game. So, thanks again for the recap.
And, thanks for stopping by my blog and entering my contest. I sincerely hope the moose poop wasn't the only incentive...
Love Love Love that the Giant's won, now Eli can get out of Peyton's shadow.
I love the commercials with Peyton and Eli eating the Oreo's. Not shown during the game, but funny funny stuff.
I'm glad that Fox did Tom Petty justice. I was worried that his performance would be ruined by shotty camera work, bad sound, nipple flashing, but no. An Awesome performance with all my fave Tom songs.
I loved Justin Timberlake getting smacked in the head. In fact, I think I liked it a little too much.
My fave commercial with the "what is love" from Night at the Roxbury and the Chris Kataan cameo at the end. AWESOME!!
You are so funny! How did I miss that rat suit commercial? It must have been when I left our neighbors' Super Bowl party to go home and rotate my laundry. Love the image of Hilary Clinton as the angry woman banging around in the kitchen. That makes her so much more likable. (I'm commenting here with my blogger identity, but I'm also daylily02 on xanga.)
The rat suit dude was good, but I'm with your kids. I loved the Budweiser commercial, probably for a different reason: I'm a sucker for motivating music, like that Rocky soundtrack.
Hey, I've "tagged" you over at my blog, lovenewsjh.blogspot.com ... I have few friends with blogs so you seemed like a convenient victim, and I'd love to read your responses.
Oh I totally love that first one!
I made a commitment to comment (blog 365 group) and I’m popping by to say hi! *waving*
When people say Superbowl, all I remember is Janet Jackson's waldrobe malfunction incident. :P
