Link to all of them.

The Ozzy best buy was my favorite.

Having a kid that loves Star Wars, the darth vador and Volkswagon was my favorite. That hit home with me.

It got the loudest laugh of the night for sure.

I think the KIA commercial was probably the most elaborate.

The Doritos "Finger Licker" was a little disturbing, but the "Pug Attack" was pretty funny.

I think that was the first Christian commercial that I'd seen during a Super Bowl (the John 3:16 one).

I liked the Ozzy one.

It's listed as rejected, but I saw it twice here in Alabama. I'm guessing it was regional? I don't know.

Overall I thought they were pretty weak.

I did like the Darth Vader one, the Doritos finger licker makes me laugh, and I thought this was the best of the BL ones.

The commercials were mostly lame. Very forgettable. So forget them.

My question is what was up with Cyndi Lauper masquerading as Christina Aguilera and then goose-honking the worst rendition of the national anthem since Roseanne Barr farted through it in San Diego?

And second, when did Slash become a whore? Letting fish face squawk through Sweet Child O' Mine was an affront to common decency.

Worst national anthem, overwrought and seriously bad halftime show, lame commercials and a game that everybody tells me was thrilling but that I yawned through. Tell me again why I spent $284.03 on chips, dips, smokies, crescent rolls, cookies and hooch and opened my doors to friend snd relations.

This. Maybe its just because of how great previous years have been. My wife and I both felt this year was a little lacking.

So true, so true.

Next year I'll have to sell tickets.

Best part of the day? I sqeezed nine holes of golf between church and setting up the Super Bowl shindig. Two birdies. One bogey. Everything was straight and long and on target. Happy day.

If JJ could get $200 a pop for people to sit outside the stadium and watch on a TV, surely you could cadge $10 or $20 per.

Commercials were OK. The one that made me guffaw the most was the Pespi Max where the wife hits the blond upside the head with the can. And then they walk off quickly. I wasn't expecting that one.

Best buy was funny right at the end with the "What's a bieber"?

Bud light product placement was funny.

The other Pepsi Max where we could hear the thoughts. Funny due to the complicated thoughts of the male...

High-lite of my night. I finally broke down and bought one of those Miller Lite mini-kegs, Not bad. Now if it were magical and never run out.....

Yep, the Pepsi Max was pretty damn funny.

Some commercials good, some bad. Every year there are those that just try to hard and reach too far for a laugh.

Black Eyed Peas? I was really looking forward to them, and they were a major disappointment. The only bright spot IMHO, contrary to Kaos', was Slash and Fergie's Sweet Child rendition. And it wasn't great.

Commercials overall grade: B-

Halftime Show: D+ (not an epic failure only because Fergie showed up)

Snaggletiger · « **Reply #18 on:** February 07, 2011, 03:27:36 PM »

I was also looking forward to the Peas and thought the concept of what they did was great. They told everyone from the start they were going to go big..and they did. Slash coming up and Usher coming down etc. was pretty cool; however, I thought the sound was messed up and too much of the singing was way off key. Could barely even hear Usher.

Seemed to me the sound of the whole game was messed up. The crowd noise seemed to be too high in relation to the announcers. If it was up loud enough to hear them well, the crowd noise was too loud to stand, and I'm not talking just during a big play, but the whole time. I guess it could have been the TV, but seems like you're saying the same thing.
