Increasingly Disconnected Bob Garfield Weighs In On Super Bowl

If you want a seriously retarded re-cap of this year’s Super Bowl commercials, be sure to check out Bob Garfield’s video in which he thinks one of the Bridgestone commercials was homophobic, an extremely tame Victoria’s Secret commercial somehow compels guys to go home and masturbate, the cartoonish heart in that Careerbuilder commercial as well as the “blood curdling scream” in Audi’s Godfather spot will “scare the wits” out of children, Diet Pepsi Max is somehow marketed as a drug, McDonald’s somehow shouldn’t make people aware it’s behind the Ronald McDonald House and that it’s impossible for two people of opposing political parties to put aside their arguing for a day and relate to each other like human beings.

Seriously, Bob. Life really isn’t as bad as you paint it. Didn’t you see Coke’s beautiful balloon ballet? OK, so this year’s Super Bowl wasn’t a stellar one ad-wise but it was not the debacle you paint it.
