Really, Maserati has that big of a budget?

What were the odds the game would start with a safety?

They're praying someone buys a few cars before the invoice comes in the mail

The Radio Shack one wasn't bad but if the commercials don't start getting better I'm catching up on Downton Abbey.

I clicked on this topic to post maserati. I should be surprised I was beaten to it.

Yeah, I was disappointed that THEIR definition of Radio Shack in '80's isn't the same as mine.

Breadboards, resistors, soldering irons, etc.

And if you have kids under the age of 15, the woman in the Chevrolet Cancer commercial played the mom on "Suite Life Zack and Cody"

Wow, Weathertec has the budget!

Hey TIM, let's get the GRM guys to go after some of those dollars.

Me too....especially with the ad having a welder and a blacksmith. Not the sort of tradesmen I'd expect them to market that car to.

My response to that was, "They already ruined radio shack by reducing the DIY stuff to one side of one aisle. I don't know how they are going to do anything more...."

Yeah. I kind of feel like Radio Shack just gave me a wedgie and called me a dweeb.

Yeah, but they left out a bullet point. It is not just an American factory with American workers using materials from the USA....they also use Haas Automation (USA) CNC machines. (One of my buddies used to work for Haas, and WeatherTech were a customer he dealt with)

I didn't particularly like the muppets ad, and it was more entertaining than the game. Denver [sigh!]

OK, Kudos to intuit for giving Goldie Blocks a national ad. It was almost as good as the last one, and this time, it was legit. http://money.cnn.com/2014/01/30/smallbusiness/super-bowl-ad-intuit-goldieblox/

The "Puppy Bowl" was actually more entertaining than this game has been... First ever field-goal, power-outage, and a parachuting cat at halftime.

Did I just see Bob Dylan trying to sell me a Chrysler 200?

Next thing you know Zeppelin will be trying to sell me a Cadillac.
