Disgraceful Atlanta Sports Radio Station 790 AM Targets And Belittles Steve Gleason [Audio]

Scott Prather — Mon, 17 Jun 2013 17:27:56 +0000

A sports radio station in Atlanta aired a three minute segment this morning, pretending to talk to former New Orleans Saints safety Steve Gleason. Gleason suffers from ALS, and communicates by using a computer. The morning show recorded a segment speaking to a computer, claiming it was Gleason. Allegedly, one line used in the disgraceful bit was of "Gleason" saying, "I might be dead by Thursday." This is disgusting.

Model Matthew Terry Gets Shirtless For the Ladies In Calvin Klein's 2013 Super Bowl Commercial

Emerald Catron — Mon, 04 Feb 2013 03:06:03 +0000

Calvin Klein was courteous enough to sneak a little something for the ladies into their commercial for the 2013 Super Bowl. Actually, that’s pretty much all this commercial is. Just a hot, random dude in his underpants showing off his hot bod. Turns out that model’s name is Matthew Terry. And it looks like he [...]

See M&M's Take on a Meatloaf Classic in Super Bowl 2013 Commercial

Emerald Catron — Mon, 04 Feb 2013 01:37:21 +0000

Red makes a lot of good points in the M&M’s commercial for Super Bowl 2013. We think it’s perfectly fair to not let somebody eat you just because you love them. It’s also absolutely fine to not shove yourself into a pinata or an oven. It’s totally cool if you don’t want to be attacked [...]

Sarah Shahzad — Mon, 04 Feb 2013 00:51:43 +0000

This contender in Doritos’ Crash the Super Bowl commercial contest features a goat that just can’t get enough of that nacho cheese taste. The story is the budding friendship of two Doritos fans, regardless of difference in species. Tragedy strikes, of course, and their love for Doritos drives a wedge between them–the goat chews too [...]

Is Oreo Whisper Fight the Funniest Super Bowl 2013 Commercial?

Sarah Shahzad — Mon, 04 Feb 2013 00:38:51 +0000

Oreo's Super Bowl 2013 commercial features a "whisper fight" in a library that breaks out over whether the cream or the cookie is the best part of the glorious whole that is the Oreo. It's nice to see that even having such strong feelings on the issue, every single person involved is mindful of keeping it down in the library.

Jeremy Taylor — Thu, 31 Jan 2013 15:19:09 +0000

Century 21′s 2013 Super Bowl commercial has some fun with the old “monster-in-law” stereotype. In the spot, a couple is in church, getting ready to say “I do.” But before they get to that, the bride’s mother leans over and tells the groom, “we’re going to be one big happy family.” What she means is [...]

Mercedes is pulling out all the stops in their 2013 Super Bowl commercial. Not only does the spot feature celebrities like Willem Dafoe, Usher and Kate Upton, it also features the classic Rolling Stones song ‘Sympathy for the Devil.’ In the spot, it’s Dafoe who plays the devil. (Are you surprised? Why are you surprised? Of course [...]

Sarah Shahzad — Wed, 30 Jan 2013 22:32:59 +0000

The Allstate insurance company’s Super Bowl offering for 2013 is yet another example of their philosophy of terrifying customers into buying insurance. Dean Winters returns as the embodiment of “Mayhem,” which, we are told, is everywhere. This time around, Mayhem is shown to be responsible for the temptation and banishment of Adam and Eve, the [...]

Watch the Taco Bell Ad That Was Banned for Upsetting Vegans

Sarah Shahzad — Wed, 30 Jan 2013 20:43:28 +0000

Taco Bell was forced to retract its anti-vegetable commercial for promoting its 12-pack of tacos. The ad opens with the narrator deriding vegetables, saying “Veggies on game day is like punting on fourth and one — it’s a cop out.” Taco Bell responded, saying they didn’t mean for the ad to be misinterpreted, but to [...]

Gildan's Super Bowl 2013 Commercial Shows How Far a Guy Will Go For a Shirt

Emerald Catron — Tue, 29 Jan 2013 22:20:54 +0000

New to the Super Bowl commercial game for 2013 is Gildan. You know, the company that makes t-shirts that other people print stuff on. Apparently our estimation of them is a little low, because this guy is willing to do a lot for his favorite shirt, which is obviously a Gildan. We’re personally from the [...]

Kaley Cuoco Grants Wishes in Toyota's Super Bowl 2013 Commercial

Emerald Catron — Tue, 29 Jan 2013 21:53:24 +0000

This Toyota commercial has got all the necessary ingredients for a big hit at the Super Bowl. There's Kaley Cuoco from 'The Big Bang Theory,' music by Skee-Lo and a guy in a rabbit suit. We're betting there's no shortage of men who don't mind imagining Cuoco as a wish-granting genie. You know, because she could like make enormous trays of nachos appear whenever. Not for any perverted reasons. It's the Super Bowl. Let's keep it clean, fellas.

Volkswagen's Controversial 2013 Super Bowl Commercial Has a Jamaican Flavor

Jeremy Taylor — Mon, 28 Jan 2013 23:55:09 +0000

Volkswagen’s 2013 Super Bowl Commercial takes place in a nondescript office building. Despite the location, the island nation of Jamaica manages to be the star of the spot. In it, we see a bunch of morning-weary workers in an elevator. “I hate Mondays,” one of them says, and the most of the elevator’s other occupants seem to concur. But one [...]

Axe's 2013 Super Bowl Commercial Proves There's Nothing Better Than an Astronaut

Jeremy Taylor — Mon, 28 Jan 2013 22:53:54 +0000

For AXE’s 2013 Super Bowl commercial, the body spray company strays a bit from its typical formula of good-looking women who are inexplicably in hot pursuit of average men. Granted the spot does feature a bikini-clad babe. In this case, she is swimming in the ocean when the ominous dorsal fin of a shark approaches. [...]

Fiat Gets Racy in Funny Super Bowl 2013 Commercial

Emerald Catron — Mon, 28 Jan 2013 15:35:27 +0000

Fiat has released yet another slew of commercials for Super Bowl 2013, which henceforth shall be known as that time we watched a million Fiat commercials. We’ve gotta admit they tricked us with this one. We assumed the hot model driving the car lost control because *joke* women can’t drive, duh. Turns out she was [...]

Coca Cola's Super Bowl 2013 Commercial Features Bizarre Desert Race

Jeremy Taylor — Sat, 26 Jan 2013 15:55:05 +0000

In the first of Coca Cola’s 2013 Super Bowl commercials we meet a man traveling the desert with a camel. In the distance is a giant bottle of Coke. Is it a mirage? It’s unclear, but as he gets closer he sees that a group of cowboys have also spotted the over-sized beverage. And so have a [...]

Sarah Shahzad — Wed, 23 Jan 2013 16:39:18 +0000

M&Ms return with their mascot, the much beloved Ms. Brown. Ms. Brown was introduced in M&M’s Super Bowl commercial in 2012 and found instant popularity. In this teaser for the candy’s Super Bowl 2013 commercial, sassy, no-nonsense Ms. Brown uses clever misdirection to distract a chocolate-lover from herself by drawing attention to the goofy red [...]

Jeremy Taylor — Thu, 14 Jun 2012 09:10:59 +0000

Although you probably wouldn’t recognize Max Page, you have almost certainly seen him before. The 7-year-old played miniature Darth Vader in Volkswagen’s 2011 Super Bowl ad, a spot that is among the most popular in the history of the Big Game.

After the commercial aired, Max made an appearance on ‘Today,’ where his mom revealed he had been diagnosed with a congenital heart defect at birth and has since worn a pacemaker.
