Ah, the Super Bowl. When sports fans everywhere gorge themselves on salty snack treats and frothy libations and non-sports fans like myself, um, play with Legos or something. Even if you don't watch football, you know that advertisers roll out some of their best stuff during the game. AOL Sports has a site where you can view some classic Super Bowl spots, including the Joe Greene jersey ad and Apple's "1984" spot. You can also vote for your favorite. On February 7, commercials from Super Bowl XXXIX will be added.

Thought your special little vibrating razor was making you look clean shaven and sexy, didn't you? Thought that it was worth the 14 dollar price tag, didn't you? Well, AdAge reports that the District Court of Connecticut thinks you're a fool. Because as it turns out, vibration does nothing for whiskers. And Energizer (Schick razors) is going to sue the G-beast for making it's take an unnecessary dive. Gillette ran its first ad for the M3 during the 2004 Super Bowl, undoubtedly causing sporting men everywhere to rush to their local CVS. Oops.

The Miami Herald carries a letter on Sunday from a reader who is quick to point out the hypocrisy at the NFL (and FOX television, in this case) towards the advertisements they ran (or didn't) during the Super Bowl this year combined with what goes on during gameplay or in other ads.  Specifically that cheerleader shots continue to be in the game, commercials with violence end up being "funny," but how dare you show a woman's shirtstrap fall down.

PETA joins the club of advertisers who didn't make the Super cut in recent times.  Thankfully for us, they've posted their "rejected" ad online.  It features some seventies-looking girls pillow fighting on the couch over dolphins being cute or something, followed by the pizza man showing up at the door with....extra sausage.  Or not, as it were! 

All to promote their new GoVeg.com website through a 'threat' that men eating meat can cause, well, problems.
