Besides you can watch all the commercials on YouTube without having to watch the game.

The Superbowl commercials, like much else in pop culture, have been ruined.

They used to be big surprises worth waiting for. The commercials were well made, often funny or at least interesting, and featuring products we were all familiar with.

Now we are all firehosed with teaser commercials that reveal way too much of the final ads ... like so many movie trailers these days.

And the commercials are more MEH than Marvelous. They are confusing, unfunny, preachy, and poorly scripted.

And the products are a bunch of no-name websites and apps that few have heard of: basically the corporate equivalent of the hail mary pass.

I never thought I'd ever wish for soccer to overtake football here in America, but at least the soccer hooligans make for an interesting show!
