Danica Exposes Herself in the Name of GoDaddy. Again
As always, domain-buying service GoDaddy took the fullest advantage of its liaison with Danica Patrick -- and her beaver -- for this year's Super Bowl spots, whose scripts appear to have been written by pornographers in financial distress.
Here's a trope you might've seen before: pubescent boy's fantasies, realized.
And this spot, confusingly dubbed "Baseball," plays on trashy court TV. I think it would be better served if it were renamed "Enhanced? I'll show you enhanced."
Cast votes for your favorite on GoDaddy.com up to January 23rd. Like last year, each spot continues in a (gasp!) unrated online version.

Where would one even begin...
I'm assuming it's called "Baseball" because it references the steroids congressional hearings, not trashy court TV.
There is a new Edge commerical on tv running right now, that is far more sexie than this Danica one. It seems to me that when people are expecting something on the "cheekie" side in a commerical and it's even a little sex (such as Go-Daddy's)that they jump on it. Yet the new Edge commerical flies under the public radar without so much as one remark.
