(Keep the sports comments down in the Sports forum.)
So far, funny commercials. I liked the "Live The Flavor" one from Doritos and cracked up at the "I threw rock" beer commercial.

Dave and Oprah -- who knew?
The Doritos commercial was part of a contest. The winning commercial was aired. The winners came from nearby Cary,NC.

I've missed some of them, but I think the Doritos is one of my favorites so far.
Funny and cute!

The Budweiser "Dalmatian" one was great.

Believe it or not, we don't get ANY American commercials on any SuperBowl coverage here in Canada (GLOBAL TV CANADA has the rights to the broadcast). They aren't allowed to be shown here, I read why the other day, I just don't remember. It's so dumb.

I wonder if they'll have a tear-jerker this year, like the one with the Clydesdale COLT!! "pulling" the wagon.

I am not rooting for any team, like the previous Super Bowls.

That would be a SPORTS post?

While this isnt a commercial, I thought it was funny the commentator "I forgot to tell you, I failed Meteorology school"

I loved that part...As for the Cary, NC commercial...I told my parents "only someone from NC would think of that"...I loved it though

Hmm, well...just when I was about to say I'm glad he's doing his Jimi Hendrix-esque act instead of his horrible androgynous crap, he turns around and actually does Jimi Hendrix song.
I'm still not a fan though.

Halftime shows suck now. Remember it was on CBS that Nipplegate happened.

Yup, you got that right. I still don't get why they'd bring a has-been like Prince to do the show. Why not someone more current?

I thought the chevy commercial with the guys taking their shirts off was funny.
