Giants Win! Third Avenue Celebrates!

A mini-Giants rally broke out at 34th and 3rd last night after the win. There was the requisite flashing girl, the 18-1 chants, toilet paper everywhere, and of course, plenty of police. Not enough burning cars though, Detroit is still the ultimate riot town.


The aftermath:

A lone Patriots fan:

It felt great to savor my first major sports championship as an adult.

At least Lovie Smith can take solace in his Christianity

I'm not gonna gloat about my powers of prediction...wait, my score was just 4 points off from the exact final score? Ok, fine, for once I out Nostra'd Nostra. Anyway, the Colts absolutely dominated this game from post-Hester return to finish, but they also somehow managed to let the Bears hang around for way too long. Oh well, it made for a more compelling game. But enough about the game.

Upon first recollection my favorite commercial was the preview for Wild Hogs. Either that, or the commercial that I actually liked a lot, the one for GM's 100,000 mile warranty. Part of the reason I liked it so much might have been because it reminded me of this ad. I also thought that the the GPS and Maposaurus monsters ad was very funny. And for the last time I will encourage my friends and readers to check out something related to the NFL Super Ad contest. In this case I refer to the :60 version of the spot which is now available online. But enough about the commercials.

I really want to talk to you about how obvious it is that God loves Indianapolis and the Colts more than he loves anyone or anything else. It was so nice to see a good Christian coach like Tony Dungy and a good Christian owner like Jim Irsay walk away with the Lombardi Trophy. Those dirty jews have been dominating football for far too long.

Super Bowl

My predictions are:

Colts 30, Bears 20

Rich 1, Guacamole 0

I've been on the bandwagon for awhile now (just forget about those other years when I picked the Colts...I wanna be right THIS year, ok?).

We have a winner...

...in the Super Bowl ad contest! Check out the winning pitch right here. Congrats to Gino. But remember Tom, this could have been you.

You should also take a look at the Doritos ad contest. I don't love any of them, but I am impressed by the production values, considering that they were all "home-made." If pressed, I would say that I like "Mouse Trap" the best. Although my alternate ending would have had the guy finishing his bag of Doritos and then getting caught in the mouse trap himself because he just had to have that last chip.

Vote Now!

It's finally time for you to vote for the best pitch for the best NFL Super Bowl commercial ever. I have been telling all of you about this contest for weeks now so please indulge me by watching some of these pitches. There are 12 in total, but you have to choose your favorite one. To go directly to voting, click here. The ones that I like best are Abe and Craig. Sadly, the "Baby Free Agent" idea didn't make the final cut.

And we also have a new game called "Playoff Bandwagon." Raiders fans might like it.

PS: I know that mine was better, but I wasn't allowed to compete. If you'd like to see what I came up, leave a comment or e-mail me.
