As the nations highest-rated television program, the Super Bowl offers advertisers the opportunity to define (or re-define) themselves for the public in a way that no other venue can provide. A memorable commercial will be discussed among friends at Super Bowl parties today, and at the office water cooler tomorrow. Thats why companies are willing to pay $5 million for half a minute.
Many companies take the opportunity to associate themselves with themes and values cherished by current and potential customers. The label virtue-signaling is usually used by me in a negative fashion when companies and people embrace the shibboleths of progressives, but there are many instances of companies espousing positive values that dont offend me.

NOT IN THIS RET. MILITARY House!
I am not boycotting the NFL. "Boycott" implies that one is trying to send a message to protest something. I just don't watch it anymore. They are dead to me. They can never return to "the way it was".
Tks for link
Only two caught my eye
A) Budweiser and the dog....nice
B) the Stella ad is excellent.....really good....Lebowski and SITC.......shes not purty but nice boobies......Bridges nails it.....of course
Amen!
Yup.

“intersperced with a few moments of actual play here and there.”
about 11 minutes total from snap to whistle during a 3.5 hour telecast ...
I;m with you.
Many FReepers will be angry at me now as I tell you
I did NOT forgive the NFL for the Colin stuff, the taking a knee stuff or the anti-Trump stuff.
To me the total boycott of the NFL is still on.
I used to watch the Super Bowl more for the commercials. But anymore, there’s no point to watching it for any reason.
Bring back the Swedish bikini team!
It's horrible...... unwatchable.
A Guiltfest...........
The Puppy bowl and the Kitten bowl have more action
Speciesism at it's worst! Very little kitty action, mostly canine..............disgusting!
Gron-catski played very well.
Cats relegated to the sky box?????? I’m triggered!
And Cootie the cat is not amused.......
I’ll never understand why people who claim to be vehemently opposed to the NFL’s left turn are still turning into this dreck. Even without the politics it certainly isn’t family friendly television. But then I’ve never liked football.

Boring Game, unless you enjoy watching punts. But for m, punting equates with failure.
