Heh

Well, it was a damned good game, closer than most Sooper-Dooper Bowls I've seen.  Seein' as how I don't follow the NFL... or watch any of their games, this bein' my first one all season... I had no dog in the fight.  It's amazing how cool, detached, and analytical one can be when one isn't emotionally invested.  I almost wish I could feel that way when watching college ball or hockey.

Nah.  Not really.  Not EVEN!

As for the ads?  They sucked compared to previous years.  Some were downright embarrassing to the products they were supposed to flog, others were simply tasteless, and most were just tacky.  Madison Avenue ain't what it used to be if Sooper-Dooper Bowl ads are the industry's Academy Awards.  There were exceptions, of course.  The Bud Light ads were good... they're ALWAYS good (a shame about the BEER, though)... and the Volkswagen "Darth Vader" ad appealed to me.

But the BEST one, for my money?  This:

I don't give a big rat's ass about the car and wouldn't have a Chrysler if someone were to give me one.  But I LOVE the message about Detroit; that's Right-fuckin'-ON.  Good On Chrysler for sayin' that.  And yeah, the visuals made me homesick.  Very much so.
