@Len Penzo So weird Len, cuz I re-watched the Snickers Betty White commercial again, and it just ain't that funny! Maybe it's cuz you just turned 46, and Betty and Abe are even more economic for folks in their 40's? Happy b-day! @Brad Indeed. Hands off my momma! lol

The google ad was great but there was something about the one where the kid laid down the law that I found hysterical!

I with Boomer. Snickers Betty White/Abe Vigoda one was LOL funny. My #1. Beaver was #2.

In my book, that’s one of the few times the beaver came in second to anything.

Best,

The guys who made the dog park commercial for Doritos spent $200 bucks, and made $600,000. Nice :)

Money Funk :That was your number 1??? My favorite is the Doritos commercial where the dog puts the bark collar on the guy at park. Now that was hilarious! Money Funk´s last blog ..Find the Best Online Savings Accounts

That was definitely a good one; we (myself and my fiancee) had a good laugh about that one. I do think the beaver one was better, though. Beavers are adorable. The Google ad was also pretty good; the last bit had my fiancee and I awwwing at the screen.

@J. Money @Credit Card Chaser @Mike Piper Can't give Google too much love though, as they dominate everything and I'm right here in Google hive central! @David @ MBA briefs Indeed, hence why Monster and Google are my top two. I associate Doritos now with FUN, and more FUN! I will buy Doritos if there are 3 different options staring me in the face. I loved marketing during b-school! @Ryan @ Planting Dollars Oh yeah? Pls send profile pic if you want. I didn't realize these guys were hot. Just highlighting Brad as someone who is helping rebuild the 9th District in New Orleans. Go Brad! Besides, Christine from Money Funk said she had a dream of Brad in one of her posts, so why not. @Kosmo @ The Casual Observer You're exactly right. A lot of delusional people out there! I have a post coming up on this subject, but gotta keep it under wraps. Maybe for 4 months like this current post! lol.

Would you believe this is the first time I’ve seen these ads. Yeah I wanted to watch the Superbowl this year (though I missed it) but like most, I suspect, I wanted to watch for the halftime ads! Those Doritos ads were good. Did they air all three during the Superbowl?

Nice thread; It’s great to see the commercials again! One thing’s for sure – a boatload of cash went in to paying for some of these commercials and having to pay for the air time. I think its good to see the Saints win it all, especially with everything the people of New Orleans have been through over the years. Its nice to see the team bring it home for the fans.

@admin I guess I’m grading the commercials like a marketing professor would, and the Doritos ads score points for being funny but don’t necessarily make me want to run out and buy a bag of chips. The beaver commercial scored points with me because it was funny and got the message across that Monster.com can help anyone find a great job, even a furry woodland creature. I expect the Super Bowl commercials to be a showcase of the best commercials of the year so my expectations are a little bit higher than they normally would be.

One thing to note is that the intent of the point spread is not necessarily to be accurate, but to encourage a roughly even split in the betting, to protect the sports book from taking a bath. The bookie makes money from the vig.

Great picks – I thought the Doritos “Momma” commercial was hilarious and I was pleasantly surprised at how “feel good/non tech” the Google commercial was – very nice job on their part.
