Actually a good crop of commercials this year. I especially liked the Bud Light commercial with the dog, the Doritos commercials and the commercial with the cheetah

They all sucked. It's sad, your kids can't even watch the super bowl anymore without being bombarded with all this sexual crap.

Thought the same thing jbock. Sitting there with my 2 yr old daughter and thought she doesn't need to be seeing these commercials. It's sad.

It's cool. I was just personally disgusted by it all.

It did seem like sex was used in the commercials a little more than usual, but that may have been to compensate for the huge turn-off called the Halftime Show.

I liked the Acura/Seinfeld commercial.

Wasn't there like a 5 commercial for some website? I wasn't paying all that much attention, but I vaguely remember some foreign Arab-looking dude with some obnoxious yellow background with a website pasted all over it.

Oh good lord. I am so sick of these poverty pimps. These so called black leaders are the ones who are keeping blacks down.

Do you ever notice racists use "code language"? Cause when you call Obama a bad president, you must be using subliminal messages to the klan.

Okay, I totally thread jacked this thing. Carry on... (end rant)

It had nothing to do with blacks, moreso the cultural insensitivity displayed towards Asians. I agree with the fact that government overspending benefits China, but the way he highlighted using stereotypes was not a good political move.

What stereotypes? That a Chinese woman in China speaks broken English? Seriously? Is that a stereotype? Five questions in one post?

I was sick all Sunday night so I was playing a mental game of not throwing up during the commercials. Throwing up is all mental. All I remember is thinking it was strange that Franco Harris was on TV for 8 seconds and I think at one point I saw Uncle Jesse.

I was watching and when I saw Uncle Jesse in a commercial, I had the Full House theme stuck in my head the rest of the night

At what point can we just stop caring who's offended by things? To their credit the asians don't really care.

Also, I knew the ad had nothing to do with blacks, but it's the best known for so-called leaders who would be out of a job if there wasn't racism. Which of course, isnt fair to individual blacks who don't need some goofy leader to speak for them.

Stereotypes are funny because they're true. Demographics show if you add twang instruments to a commercial, whites are more likely to buy your product. In the same way, add a rhythm, and blacks will more likely buy your product. Does pointing out about Asian drivers make it any less true? Or how about that God made each distinct race with characteristics that we can all enjoy a little humor over. Including honky crackers.
