[QUOTE="Voyageur, post: 947586, member: 17953"] I haven't watched a Super Bowl ad since... so long can't remember when. I do think it was back when Budweiser was big time. Loved them horses! Halftime? Nope! Don't interest me. I couldn't tell you one halftime show I've saw at all, or even five minutes of it. I expect Coke to be an advertiser. When I see insurance companies advertising I think of how my cost is going up. That don't make me happy. I avoid the sixteen solid hours of hype leading up to the game because it's all fluff and crap! Nauseating. Even when they "look back to the past," and pretend they really give a rip.... they don't. It's all about today, and how much money they make from today's game. Yesterday? A bunch of losers! They never got the big bucks. I think I read that the winning players get $150k for the game? The losers get $75k? That $75k is more money than the average NFL player made back in 1966, when this all started. The average salary back then was $23,600. That was their yearly salary. Yet, when it comes to their new contracts, today's players don't want to share the big bucks they're getting with the guys that set it up for them to get it. The only time the big game interests me is when the Packers are playing in it. [/QUOTE]
