    Wait until the second period before you tell him.

    BTW, I kinda like those commercials, since they got rid of the bleacher vendor dude. I do like both of the girls, the mom with the face paint and the waitress. Both are beauties. Boz is really cool.

    The pre-Halloween Christmas ads are bad - but these Olympics ads on the football game make me think I looked forward to the Olympics more, when I actually had to look forward to the next edition for more than a few months. Sure Covid and all that, but even the every two years between Winter and Summer kind of takes the spectacle out of it. The memories of the previous edition would be a little hazy, the tech advancements in the broadcast and opening ceremonies would really be eye-popping.

    I am OK with the new Walmart one. Etta James with a non-Christmas song for the soundtrack? Yes please.

    However you spell it, the commercials and the soda are garbage.

    Mister Pibb beats out Doctor Pepper any day of the week. :)

    The Samsung commercials that consist of nothing but a form letter on the screen with a drum line playing in the background is an almost impressive degree of sloth and grift on the part of the ad agency.

    I gotta ask the ad wizards behind those USAA commercials: Did you really think we were going to find Rob Gronkowski cute and endearing as he tried to fraudulently obtain military benefits?

    I hope Scrooge’s Peleton catches fire while he’s on it.

    Maybe it's because I'll be the big 5-0 in a few months ... but that damn poop-in-a-box Colon Guard ad seems to follow me everywhere. It's on the radio, it's on TV ... hell, it will probably be one of the ads here on SJ.com.

    Considering its results aren't always accurate and they often have to stick a tube up your butt anyway, I'll just go the colonoscopy route and flush that talking poop box down the drain.
