    That one was great. I liked the first Dorito one where the girl drills her head off the car door, but the bunny one was my second favorite. The commercials went to hell after the first break though.
    There is no genuine justice in any scheme of feeding and coddling the loafer whose only ponderable energies are devoted wholly to reproduction. Nine-tenths of the rights he bellows for are really privileges and he does nothing to deserve them. We not only acquired a vast population of morons, we have inculcated all morons, old or young, with the doctrine that the decent and industrious people of the country are bound to support them for all time.-Menkin

    I'll bet if you were a Colts fan you would have liked the commercials & the half time show. I don't blame you for being pissed. The Bears just plain out suck big time. How the hell did they even get there in the first place???

    I also thought the commercials sucked. I started watching right before halftime though so I probably missed all the good ones.

    The NFL commercial done by the amateur during the 2 minute warning of the 4th quarter. Favre at the end is epic!

    I am a Colts fan and I also thought the commercials sucked this year. The K-Fed and the Blockbusters were the only ones worth a crap IMO.

    And yeah, Wreck Grossman sucks!! Cant really say he lost the game for them but I can say they probably wouldve won if they had a better QB.......mainly one that didnt throw to the opposing team or drop clean snaps.

    Overall ads were piss poor. For the money they were spending, you'd think they'd do better. For me, the rock,paper,scissors Bud Light or the big cashier chick for Doritos.

    The Godaddy.com commercial. Any commercial with Candace Michelle in it is ok with me.

    I also liked the Bud Light commmercial where they were playing rock, paper scissors for the last beer. "I threw paper...Yeah, well I threw a rock".
    My equipment sig felt inadequate and deleted itself.

    GAH! Sorry for you Bears fans, I can see why you'd just hate anything right now, but this was a GREAT batch of commercials! I'ts been years since a commercial made me laugh out loud, and at least three did this year (the K-Fed, the first Doritos with the car accident / girl falling down, and the rock paper scissors).

    I mean... as far as commercials go, that is. They are still ADVERTISEMENTS.
    If you will it, dude, it is no dream.

    I couldn't have been happier with Grossman's Performance. I hate that guy and have since his first game. He's not impressive and didn't deserve to be in the big game. Period.

    As for the commercials, I liked the Bud Light Wedding one. I looked at the fiance and said "Hey, that's not a bad idea!" She laughed then kicked me. hahaha "Going once, going twice..."

    Now Bears and Packers fans have one thing in common ;) . Thing is your 40 year old QB is still better than our 28 year old excuse machine. Grossman reminds me Jim Harbaugh all over again :( . The kid is going to take some heat.......and he deserves most of it. We'll see if he learned anything for next year. I'm not saying it's all Grossman's fault but he needs to take a lot of the blame.

    Thread content: That Snickers commercial had me rolling on the floor.

    I don't know... I kind of liked the sheer randomness of it in a sea of "guys will be guys and girls will be girls" ads.
    I never had it like this where I grew up. But I send my kids here because the fact is you go to one of the best schools in the country: Rushmore. Now, for some of you it doesn't matter. You were born rich and you're going to stay rich. But here's my advice to the rest of you: Take dead aim on the rich boys. Get them in the crosshairs and take them down. Just remember, they can buy anything but they can't buy backbone. Don't let them forget it. Thank you.Herman Blume - Rushmore
