Controversy surrounded the Tim Tebow and Mom Super Bowl ad long before it aired last night ... MSNBC said this morning that it was one of the worst Super Bowl commercials of the night.

The pre-Super Bowl discussion was primarily focused on the issue of abortion - whether that was an option or not for Mrs. Tebow when she was pregnant with Tim, and whether CBS should broadcast a decidedly pro-life commercial. Focus on the Family, a Christian organization, created and sponsored the commercial featuring the 2009 Heisman Trophy Winner and his loving mother.

Now that everyone has had a chance for themselves to see the ad (if not, then you can watch it [included with article] Are you as disappointed as the reporters at MSNBC?

It was. For all of the hype, it was confusing and did not say anything. The only thing in it that might have been good information was a web link that those who need to go to will never click.

The other superbowl ads were lame this year.

Who judged this at MSNBC?

Olberdork?

What an evil, hateful bunch they are over at MSNBC. How could anyone hate an unborn, defenseless baby so much that they would begrudge such a positive message from airing. They are just plain evil people. What’s interesting is that the younger generation of woman today don’t even agree with the middle-aged liberal hag philosphy.

It really didn’t say much. It was cute but I don’t see what the hype was about. Now the Betty White commercial was hilarious.

It wasn’t controversial enough for MSNBC, particularly Olbermann.

I’m sure the MSNBC gays thought the best commercial was the 50 pantless guys.

What is with the superbowl and their facination with wardrobe malfunctions?

The worst ad was how bad the economy is, CBS had to promote their own network for lack of selling ads.

So the Tebow's will be featured now on the Eggplant's 'worst persons in the world' segment?

Now the Betty White commercial was hilarious.

Which is why I missed the Tebow ad the first time around (I watched it again on the DVR). I was still laughing at Abe Vigoda and completely missed the Tebow ad that followed.

This from the lowest rated and most assuredly worst cable news network in history.

Who cares.

My first thought after seeing it was, "That's it??? That's what all the fuss was about??"

This just shows what a bunch of unstable psychopaths the Planned ParentHOOD mob is!

Msnbc only gets commercials with dancing horses and singing dogs. You have to keep the viewer IQ at around 60 for them to have a positive response.

Considering all the free publicity that went along with it, I’d say it was one of the best Super Bowl ads ever.
