Thanks RC

There's wisdom in that saying, but think I'd print it on my biz card instead

I'm of an age that a tatt from my 30s would be lookin' pretty sad about now .. lol/groan

[jakerobins]

When it said Sonic Bungee Jump, I thought it was a burger commercial for Sonic Drive Ins

LOL! Well those Sonic Chili Cheese Dogs do have a way of coming back on you......(At least they do for me) HAHAHA

[hattend]

Oooh... The Avengers

I’ll go see that

Mr Quigley...Hahhahaha!

[P.O.E.]

Being of Itralian descent, I have to ask

What the heck is squash spaghetti. Is it like a primavera, but autumnal?

[Girlene]

Cute bulldog/tennis shoe commercial.

lol - the cars.com commercial was a little creepy.

[P.O.E.]

[napscoordinator]

Ummmm, the Patriots are not representing the United States. What’s up with that?

Well Patriot means American in every sense of the word typically so why not the Patriots. I am just sad that they are losing so far. Hopefully that changes soon. I always thought being a Patriot was a good thing.....it used to be but with all the changes going on around here, who knows anymore. Maybe being a Patriot is negative now adays.

[RummyChick]

cars.com one of the worst so far..but not the worst

[chessplayer]

Look, I am a life-long Giant fan and so I may be suspected of being biased but I don’t understand your “Mr. Silver-Spoon-In-His-Mouth” comment.

Every thing that Eli Manning has attained has been earned on the field. From being a #1 Draft Pick in the Draft to his Super Bowl MVP, all has been earned on the field.

---

When he was drafted by the San Diego Chargers he flat out said he would not play for them. He got his way and got to New York. Other players would give their eye teeth for a chance to be drafted by ANY NFL team, as long as they got their foot in the door. And they would be grateful for it. But full-of-himself Manning? Getting into the NFL wasn’t good enough for him. He wanted his cake and eat it too, and figured he was so great he would decide who he played for. Yes, Manning is a spoiled, “I’m-better-than-everyone-else” brat. You can see it in that continual smirk on his face. John Elway was another one for refusing to play for who drafted him. Can’t stand him, either.

Hahahaha

exactly

[twigs]

I think the commercials are the worst I’ve ever seen for a Super Bowl. Didn’t like the dog one. I’m a cat lover.

[Shortstop7]

cars.com was bad bad bad....

[rabidralph]

Hooray for Mr. Quigley!

[P.O.E.]

Pats take a first down & time out. Close enough to score at least three.

[tsowellfan]

28 - 2 Pats

[hattend]

E Trade baby is back!

I’m speed dating...LOL!!

[relee]

Chargers fan?

[discostu]

It’s easy to hit Eli for refusing to be a Charger, but the fact that he’s playing in his second SB while the Chargers haven’t gotten close shows he was right. He didn’t want to play for a team he felt was no good. The team with the first pick gets to negotiate with players, they knew he didn’t want to have anything to do with them, they drafted him anyway.

[aberaussie]

I’m speed-dating! LOL!
