I'm going to wrap up my Superbowl-themed posts with a quick rundown of yesterday's extravaganza:
Jennifer Hudson's rendition of our national anthem -- great!
Bruce's half-time show -- great (and I'm not just saying that cause he's from Jersey)!
Second half of the game -- great (even though the Cardinals lost)!
Superbowl commercials -- NOT so great!
Overall, I was really disappointed with the level of un-funny that were the Superbowl commercials. Bud, in particular, was disappointing to me because they have always come up with some clever ads. Remember the Bud-weis-er frogs? Or, more recently, this one:
Hopefully, next year, they drop the horses and redeem themselves.
Amidst all the horrific commercials, however, were a few noteworthy bits. I enjoyed the E*Trade ad--I appreciated the cute black baby they brought into the mix and, if the fact that he just randomly broke out into song wasn't funny enough, he busted out Tupac's 'Broken Wings' which, for some reason, just made it that much funnier for me. Doritos to me had the two best commercials of the night and I have given top honors to this one that actually had me laughing out loud:
So that's that...one more Superbowl come and gone...anyone have any thoughts they'd like to share about the game, the commercials, etc.? I'd love to hear input from others...
