Super Bowl Commercials - IMO... boring
 

.

I really enjoy watching commercials ONE time each year - SuperBowl. In past years there were some extremely enjoyable ones. This year - IMO - so very underwhelmed. Seems so many were targeting Millenials et al. The only one that stands out for me is the GM elec car/Norway commercial with Will Ferrell.. Almost ALL the others...thumbs down. However we did notice one thing. Let me phrase this politically-correct-like. The vast majority of commercials seemed to be over-covering the race-thing. Nothing wrong with that, but - are we the only ones that noticed that?

I'm watching Fox 35 morning show right now, and they just discussed the SB commercials. The Will Ferrell was the only one that kind of stood out, it use to be every commercial during SB was something special. The Wayne's World was nice to see them again, but the commercial itself was lame. Bruce Springsteen was in one, I didn't know what he was selling and he looked sickly. I couldn't believe he's only a year older than me, he's really aged.

I concur no super bowl ads worth talking about this year....years ago talking about the ad's was the game within the game

I too felt like the whole equality message was being overplayed ...in the pregame it felt like I was being reprogrammed to neutralize
the 'white male privilege' that I am suppose to have.

I have had the privilege of serving in the military, paying my own way through college, working since I was 12, paying taxes, willingly supporting Affirmative Action whenever I hired people, contributing significantly to charities, putting 5 kinds through college without any loans and volunteering in my community to help those in need

if that makes me a racist, then go ahead and call me a racist because 'frankly my dear, I don't give a damn'

Watch this SB commercial that didn't air! Brady and Gronk

Commercials were mediocre at best. The half time show was the worst in 50 years. The game outcome was great!

Springsteen was selling jeeps.

Oh Yeah the halftime show. That time was spent - potty - snacks - call relatives - check email - check facebook - check news - potty (again). Drats!!! I think we missed it. (as we fastforwarded thru our DVR - it looked terrible).

Very well said

Spent halftime in the pool.

We thought the commercials themselves were racist.

I recognize that to many us old white guys do not count but since all of the commercials over represented blacks why is it not racist that there were no Asians or Hispanics?

The Norway commercial was the only one worth watching.

The halftime show had me quickly leave as it was not worth watching at all. Made me want to see the wardrobe malfunction again.

I agree, the race thing was way overplayed. If one came here from Mars and watched the SB commercials one would have thought our country was 75% black. Nothing wrong with that, but come on man.

UK adds. are so PC now as well.
One person of each race, someone in a wheelchair, gays of both sexes, (Not seen a Tranny yet!) Most married couples are interacial.
Newsreaders with broad regional accents, preferably with severe speech impediments.
Just waiting for a bloke married to a sheep to round it all off!

Adds were terrible. The half time show was a joke.

I draw the line at blokes being married to sheep just not right.

Now marrying your horse now that is a different story.:bigbow:

Not to me I guess. Waste of time and money.
