Underwear and Celebrities

My husband and I had surrounded ourselves with our favorite dips, chips and beverages. He was for the Patriots and I was for the Giants. We were having a great time watching the Superbowl game and of course the Superbowl Commercials. He works for Frito-Lay and they aired a commercial about a Great Dane who bribes the master of the house with Dorito's to keep quiet after he sees him burying the missing cat's ID tags. I thought that it was a cruel concept, poor kitty! My husband thought it was funny, but then actually agreed with me, and said the commercial will probably get negative feedback from PETA.

The game was exciting and some of the commercials were really funny. Then the David Beckham underwear commercial aired. What? Are you telling me that this guy has been reduced to selling underwear? The best soccer player in the history of the game? I know he endorses many products and has amassed a considerable fortune...but this??? I'm devastated!!! This exhibitionism brought him down a couple hundred points in my book. In my opinion THERE IS NO WAY AN UNDERWEAR AD, OF ANY KIND, IS CLASSY OR TASTEFUL! Yet I'm sure the first thing some people will do today, is run out and grab some of those Beckham trunks. What a bargain.

At least Madonna was very modestly dressed during the halftime show this year! I guess it works when the public demands change. We've had problems in the past with half time shows but our complaints registered. The half-time show has improved tremendously. OK, one of the dancers flipped the finger. I didn't hear about this until today. Thank goodness I missed it.

At any rate, we did enjoy Superbowl Sunday, best of all, I picked the winning team!
