The Superbowl was boring. The game played like a midseason inter-conference game. The officiating sucked ass. The commercials were almost uniformly boring and unfunny, except for the MacGyver Mastercard ad, and the town full of stuntmen.
The Diet Pepsi ads, in particular, were awful. That said, if you check out the “video rejects” link at the grotesquely named “brown and bubbly” site (shouldn’t they have gotten Sir Mix-A-Lot for that instead of Puffy?), you might have a laugh or two. At most.
On the plus side, the Steelers covered the spread, so my double-or-nothing bet (carrying over from last year’s Superbowl) is expunged. And Amy’s “Frito Pie” chili was the bomb.
