So far, mine are the Pepsi 'new generation', the Transporter Audi 6, the Clydesdale and Daisy. Honorable mention goes to Doritos where the clothes come off (and only for the clothes).

AZ wasn't tackling worth crap early on, they seem to get penetration but PA made the plays. Glad they overcame 1st qtr and made it a game in the 2nd.

flag flag

Alan T · 02-01-2009, 06:51 PM

What a game turning point this could be depending on what that flag is.

Eaglesfan27 · 02-01-2009, 06:52 PM

Some nifty moves from Harrison on that return. Huge momentum change obviously.

SirFozzie · 02-01-2009, 06:52 PM

sterlingice · 02-01-2009, 06:52 PM

Ugh. Everyone kindof half-assed it because they saw the flag. That definitely changes the game.

SI

Izulde · 02-01-2009, 06:52 PM

I can't believe I just saw that!

miami_fan · 02-01-2009, 06:52 PM

A veteran CAN't make that mistake.

Icy · 02-01-2009, 06:53 PM

WOW what a return!

Northwood_DK · 02-01-2009, 06:53 PM

Thats short again......

Radii · 02-01-2009, 06:53 PM

holy crap

sterlingice · 02-01-2009, 06:53 PM

Down?

SI

Thomkal · 02-01-2009, 06:54 PM

OMG what a disaster for the Cards, looking like they were going into halftime with the lead and then give up a 100 yard INT return. That just sucked.

Edward64 · 02-01-2009, 06:55 PM

Crap ... I'm rooting for the underdogs. Great run back though.

Eaglesfan27 · 02-01-2009, 06:55 PM

Looks like he is down to me. His wrist hits and the ball is short.

Alan T · 02-01-2009, 06:55 PM

It looks like a TD from what I see. His knee doesn't hit the ground because it is on Fitzgerald, and the head does not go down until the end zone.

I don't see any way it is possible he is down before the goal line. The ball touches right on the plane, so looks good here. Don't see any way this one is overturned.

sterlingice · 02-01-2009, 06:56 PM

So is it that if you're on a player you're not down?

SI

Dr. Sak · 02-01-2009, 06:56 PM

That is correct.

Radii · 02-01-2009, 06:56 PM

Yeah I agree w/ the call, if his knee ever hit the ground you certainly cannot tell in any of those camera angles to overturn.

That may go down as one of the biggest plays in super bowl history. That was an incredible return.

Edward64 · 02-01-2009, 06:57 PM

Just wanted to say that Jennifer Hudson was great. Very emotional.

Alan T · 02-01-2009, 06:58 PM

I love the choice for the halftime performance too..

With Springstein performing, there is absolutely 0 reason for me to watch. So I can take a break and do a few things and not miss any of the game or commercials

No doubt. One for the ages.

Buccaneer · 02-01-2009, 06:59 PM

Alan T · 02-01-2009, 07:00 PM

Can someone please explain what that commercial was that started with Swan lake? I assume a commercial for that drink?

I take it the early 90s was not your period. Springsteen is great.

I am pretty ok with most music. As long as it is not heavy-death metal, or rap music or bluegrass type country music I can tolerate most anything. I like pop, rock, alternative, opera, classical, jazz, etc.

Just never been a fan of Bruce Springsteen, he always came across as yelling in his music to me and I did not find it very enjoyable.

Alan T · 02-01-2009, 07:06 PM

Hahah.. I loved the heroes vs NFL greats commercial.. best one of the night so far to me.

Thomkal · 02-01-2009, 07:06 PM

tell me when the halftime show is over

Izulde · 02-01-2009, 07:07 PM

Okay, now that Heroes commercial was just too cute.

Edward64 · 02-01-2009, 07:07 PM

Was that McFadden? Yeah, also liked the Heros spot.

Noop · 02-01-2009, 07:08 PM

Who is this guy performing at half time and why is he telling me to put down my chicken wing?

Yes, I loved The Boss when I was a teenager. This is the first Halftime Show I've watched in at least 3 or 4 years.

Dr. Sak · 02-01-2009, 07:10 PM

Wow we just got Bruce's cock in our face

Ryan S · 02-01-2009, 07:11 PM

That looked painful..

Izulde · 02-01-2009, 07:12 PM

So far my top 5 fave commercials in no particular order:

Hyuandai commercial
First Doritos commercial with snow globes
Heroes vs NFL greats
Pepsi different generations

And it's really hard to pick a 5th. Some solid commercials so far this year, but the overall quality seems a little weak.

Shkspr · 02-01-2009, 07:13 PM

When did Bruce Springsteen become Tom Jones?

Thomkal · 02-01-2009, 07:15 PM

my fav is the other Doritos commercial with the guy with the "lucky" bag of Doritos. Love the ads that surprise you at the end, and that certainly did lol

Yeah if I picked a 5th one, that would be it. Great job by Doritos overall so far.

Big time +1, this is the first time I've looked forward to a halftime show in a long time.

Eaglesfan27 · 02-01-2009, 07:21 PM

I liked that Priceline commercial.

early 90s? I don't think most people think early 90s when they think Springsteen.

Karlifornia · 02-01-2009, 07:22 PM

Cheetos commercial was the only one I liked, and Bruce Springsteen bores me. Boss time? More like cigarette time.

Go Cards....absolutely devastating play at the end of the first half, though. If they don't score on their first possession, I might be ready to throw dirt on them.
