The Super Bowl commercials and other random observations thread.

Isn't he a weekend Vegas act now?

 

Yeah.

 

You read my mind.

 

Didn't we make money on the interest from those loans? Correct me if I am wrong.

The number reporting has always been really fuzzy. Droski would be the man to ask. Regardless some stockholders got their lunches eaten to help out the unions.

I do not remember one Super Bowl commercial. So that tells me one of two things. Either I was not paying enough attention or, they all [uck fay]ing sucked.

Real Steel?
