  • What was your favorite commercial? I thought the commercials were pretty lacking in general. My favorite may have been the Doritos one where he reincarnates Grandpa. Or the dragon that spits fireworks after drinking Coke.

    Your least favorite commercial? The Groupon Tibet commercial. Totally tasteless.

    What did you think of the halftime show? Eh. The audio stunk, Usher wasn't that good, and I'm not a big BEP fan.

    Are you happy with who won? Yes! And I won $5 from a bet with my dad!

    Would you wear light up, sequined, football shoulder pads? Uh, no.

    Congrats to both my TTC buddies, Amberley18 and sb2006 on their beautiful babies!
  • What was your favorite commercial? The Beaver car commercialYour least favorite commercial?  The Doritos one where the guy sucked the other guy's finger in the break room.  :retch:What did you think of the halftime show? It was odd.  Kind of sucked.  Fergie sounds atrocious live.  And the lack of decent audio staff really hurt it.  Loved Usher's drop in though.Are you happy with who won? It was fine.  I didn't really care.Would you wear light up, sequined, football shoulder pads? Oh yes.  In fact, maybe for Halloween.

  • What was your favorite commercial? I like the one with the beaver.  I think it was a Bridgestone commercial.  And the Darth Vader kid one, too... but I've seen that one before tonight.

    Your least favorite commercial? The go daddy ones.  I like Danica and Jillian... but I just don't like the concepts.

    What did you think of the halftime show? It was pretty bad.  I thought Bruce Springsteen's crotch shot last year was bad but this topped it.  And did Usher sing one syllable when he "performed"?

    Are you happy with who won? Yes.  Can't stand the Steelers. 

    Would you wear light up, sequined, football shoulder pads? I already put a bid in on ebay.

  • What was your favorite commercial? The Darth Vader Volkswagon one - too cute

    Your least favorite commercial? The majority of them sucked this year

    What did you think of the halftime show? BEP's suck live.

    Are you happy with who won? Yes and no. Job security I guess.

    Would you wear light up, sequined, football shoulder pads? Negative.

  • What was your favorite commercial? VW/Darth Vader all the way!

    Your least favorite commercial? Doridos, guy licks finger...gross!!!

    What did you think of the halftime show? I liked it (I think I'm the only person who did). I think the sound was really bad, but I don't think it was their fault. The only thing it was missing was Usher taking his shirt off.

    Are you happy with who won? Ehh, I don't really care

    Would you wear light up, sequined, football shoulder pads?Depends on the occasion.
  • What was your favorite commercial? Darth vader kid - super cute

    Your least favorite commercial? most of them- I thought almost all of them sucked.

    What did you think of the halftime show? theatrically it was cool, the music was terrible - the sound people should be looking for work today

    Are you happy with who won? I am from Cincinnati, its a crime to root for the Steelers so YES

    Would you wear light up, sequined, football shoulder pads? If I was presented with the occasion, yes.

  • What was your favorite commercial? I liked the Bud Light commercial with the dogs as butlers. And the beaver car commercial

    Your least favorite commercial? The Groupon Tibet commercial was tasteless. Honestly, I was underwhelmed by the commercials this year.

    What did you think of the halftime show? I would have rather sat in silence for 16 min than listen to that mess. BEP suck live. I was pretty disappointed with all 3 live performances (the glee girl, Xtina, and BEP). Just bad this year.

    Are you happy with who won? YEP! I'm from CLE and our sworn enemy are the steelers. I HATE big ben rapistberger.

    Would you wear light up, sequined, football shoulder pads? Sure, why not?


  • What was your favorite commercial? The Darth Vader commercial for VW and of course, I loved Ozzy saying "What's a Beiber?" haha

    Your least favorite commercial? I really wasn't overly impressed with many of them.

    What did you think of the halftime show? I think Fergie ruined GNR.

    Are you happy with who won? I really could have cared less...

    Would you wear light up, sequined, football shoulder pads? um...no.

  • What was your favorite commercial? The Darth Vader kid and the Audi/Kenny G commerical

    Your least favorite commercial? The Doritos finger sucking commercial kind of creeped me out. There weren't a lot of great commercials this year!

    What did you think of the halftime show? I thought Will.I.am was great, but Fergie really ruined the whole thing..

    Are you happy with who won? I guess so..I didn't really care.

    Would you wear light up, sequined, football shoulder pads? Only if the light up tissue box hats are unavailable.

  • What was your favorite commercial? I like the Doritos one where they brought back grandpa. Also, like the "best first date ever" status update. It was for some type of car, but I can't remember what.

    Your least favorite commercial? I was disappointed there wasn't a good Budweiser commercial. If there was, I missed it.

    What did you think of the halftime show? The BEPs always sound a mess live. This was no exception. Also, Fergie's face looks tragic.

    Are you happy with who won? GO PACKERS!

    Would you wear light up, sequined, football shoulder pads? Seriously, that's what I'm wearing today. ;-)

  • What was your favorite commercial? The Chevy Camaro, the one where the two guys were talking about making their ad and at the end they were like "wait we have to end this... oh i got it SHE'S A TEACHER". 

    Your least favorite commercial? I'll go with the go daddy ones were weird

    What did you think of the halftime show? I wasn't really bummed about it. I liked all the lights and people making shapes. They did a good job doing alot of different songs. I mean when I think BEP I don't think high quality singing anyways, so the fact that the music was all over the place didn't seem to effect their performance for me.

    Are you happy with who won? I was expecting better from the steelers, they really missed alot of good throws... I was really looking forward to another amazing 99 yard run like last year, but packers totally kicked ass. It was a pretty good game, there were alot of touchdowns and thats what I wanted.

    Would you wear light up, sequined, football shoulder pads? Aha maybe if I were fergie... but I'm really not. Just imagine what Gaga would have worn...

     ETA: I also loved the "reply all" one where the guy runs around to destroy all the computers and phones from everyone he sent an email to... hilarious.

  • I have the game on DVR for commecial purposes only - I was too busy entertaining last night that I didnt get a chance to watch any, but I'm going to fast-forward through the game to catch them when I get home.  I could have cared less about the actual game.

  • What was your favorite commercial? Darth Kid of course, and anyone who knows me know I've gotta say the Eminem/ Chrysler commercial. Even though i'm not a chrysler fan.

    Your least favorite commercial? the two Go Daddy ones.

    What did you think of the halftime show? I liked Slash and Usher, and the Tron inspired groupies.

    Are you happy with who won? yes!

    Would you wear light up, sequined, football shoulder pads? no, probably not ever.

  • What was your favorite commercial? I liked the coke commercial with the two border guys. The beaver commercial, Darth Vader, and Doritos reviving gramps.

    Your least favorite commercial? The GoDadddy one where Joan whatsherface was the hot bod chick.

    What did you think of the halftime show? BEP need to retire. They're reworking their old songs into a 2011 show, then doing it poorly. The light people and the stage was great. The rest could have been skipped. I still think that Prince had one of the best half time shows. I mean, it starts raining during Purple Rain. Awesome.

    Are you happy with who won? Heck yeah! Green and Yellow!

    Would you wear light up, sequined, football shoulder pads? Perhaps a remixed version of the outfit. Skip the light up part, go with the sequins and less padding.

  • What was your favorite commercial? E-trade baby, and Ozzy & the Biebs.

    Your least favorite commercial? The doritos licky-finger one. Vom.

    What did you think of the halftime show? I think it was mostly bad audio. I think Fergie was forcing it because she knew the audio was bad and she was trying to sing as loud as she could. It was a combination of things that made it turn out badly.

    Are you happy with who won? ::shrugs:: I guess.

    Would you wear light up, sequined, football shoulder pads? Damn right I would.

     I think it was mostly bad audio. I think Fergie was forcing it because she knew the audio was bad and she was trying to sing as loud as she could. It was a combination of things that made it turn out badly.

    This.  the audio was awful.  Whether you're a BEP fan or not, you have to admit that like 90% of the problem was the audio.  I have a friend that was at the game that said it was amazing, one of the coolest shows he's ever seen.  And apparently an 80yo woman that was sitting by him said it was the most amazing thing she had ever seen. 

    I don't know when the halftime producers will learn to transmit the halftime shows better.  They need to take lessons from people that record live concerts - they seem to do it just fine.  Why does the audio of the halftime show always suck?!  You'd think they would figure it out. 

    At least this year the halftime show featured more people from the 21st century.  Has not been the case the past few years....
