Other Comments

In continuation of my super blog I have a couple more football comments then some thoughts about the commercials... and then maybe some bonus thoughts at the end.

Mike Holmgren was walking off the field at halftime yelling at the refs. What he should have been doing is figuring out how he screwed up managing the clock at the end of the half so it wouldn't happen again. And sure enough, he screwed up the clock management at the end of the game. You have to kick the 40ish yard FG with 42 seconds left. Your team needs two scores and you have to give yourself enough time to get down the field. You can always throw a hail mary to try and get within a 2 point conversion if you have the ball. And if you don't recover the onside kick it doesn't matter anyway because the game is over. The play calling was terrible too. The short passes inbounds. Terrible game management. If I was a Seahawks fan that is what I would be yelling about not the refs.

Onto what I am sure is some people's favorite part of the Super Bowl; the commercials.
Now I love funny. I have come to the realization in life that all I really want to do is just sit back, relax and laugh a lot. Well the SB commercials definitely appealed to me. The comedy was there and it was booming. Bud Light/Budweiser was right on in all it's commercials. The office, revolving fridge, streaker, bear, stadium beer pour were all awesome. I also thought the Clydesdale horse commercial was nice too.
The caveman Fed Ex commercial started off slow but was awesome. I loved how the caveman walks out of the cave kicks the little dinosaur and then gets stepped on by the big one.
The MacGyver MasterCard commercial was awesome. I enjoyed the first part, but at the end when they showed him buying all the random things like he knew he would need them had me rolling.
I have to admit, I was expecting more from the Emerald Nuts people. It seemed a little too far out even for them.
The Ameriquest "Don't judge too quickly" commercials were very solid.
I enjoyed the Sierra Mist commercial with Kathy Griffin and Michael Ian Black.
Some more random SB thoughts:
ABC ran multiple bumpers for Grey's Anatomy and they kept talking about this code black. All of the sudden I needed to know what a code black was... It was driving me crazy, but not crazy enough to watch the show, nice try though ABC.
Who the hell comes up with these horrible signs. "Absolute Bettis Championship". I know it has the acronym ABC, but come on. This was the best that the camera men could find? And whoever was holding that up... her family or friends didn't say anything to her? If someone I knew was going to bring in one of those crappy signs with that terrible saying on it, I would sure as hell stop them. Unless of course her family and friends are mean and wanted her to look foolish on national TV. Although, they probably didn't imagine she would make it on TV with that bad boy so maybe they just all didn't want to be the bearers of bad news. Oh well, joke's on her.
Well I think that's it. I will post this now and then come back in a little bit with some more random thoughts as well as something huge that is happening on Friday. Stay tuned.
