2021 Super Bowl Commercials

[Dark Powers]

This year will defiantly be different. Not just the teams playing. But so will be the norms for the ads.

This year many mainstay advertisers are backing out and refusing to run ads out of fear of angering views. Not just on the right by running PC correct social justice ads, but also the left by running ads that call for peace or unity.

Some bowing out this year include Coke, Hyundai, Olay, Avocados From Mexico, Little Caesars and Ford. While others are opting to use their air-time to promote health safety or just general company information opposed to their usual ad buys. These include Pepsi and Budweiser.

This year, will see many new advertisers who in previous years could never buy ad space due to cost. And there will be much less ad space compared to previous years as ad space is going unsold. 

In the next three post, I will be doing a full rundown of all current advertisers and their ads. So enjoy.

[Dark Powers]

I am having some unfamiliarity with this forum settings. Do not know how to if it's possible to post videos directly other then a link to their location. So will have to make do.

Who takes the hardest hit from this?  The nfl or the network who bought the rights to televise the game?

That would be a good question. To be honest, I don't know.

[Texacon]

I think some of it is driven by the fact viewership is way down from past years.  The NFL pretty much screwed the pooch by not stopping what was going on.  I know I used to be a football junky, hardly missed a televised game, but I haven't watched a single game in 3 years, including the Super Bowl.

I wouldn't rule that out, and there likely is some. Could also be partly the teams. Seriously. Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Not really a nationally discussed team.

But many of the large advertisers have flat out said they don't intend to due to the political climate.

Coke flat out said with the fact their having to lay off a large portion of it's employee's it didn't feel it was right to spend millions on super bowl ads with so many of it's workers laid off.

Budweiser though it's running nearly 4 min of ads for it's brands, for the parent company which usually does the Clydesdale or a heart warming ad, is instead using that money to run ads on regular spaces to promote covid vaccinations.

Pepsi is bowing out after their 2017 ad blew up in their face featuring a BLM protester walking up to a police line offering a office a pepsi in peace. The BLM movement torched the company for that ad and they have been reeling sense.

Gillette for the same reason after their horrid campaign questioning "Toxic Masculinity" and promoting transgenderism as well as the #Metoo movement. The company lost more then $8 Billion from that campaign.

[Drafe Hoblin]

I think we're talking low-ratings.  Or we were before Brady got-in.  Not sure how the numbers are going to shake out.

I don't have a feeling about the ads.  There'll be a ton of flops.  There always are.  The thing about the Dot Com era were the amount of one-time-only ads.  A lot of those companies went out of business within weeks after the broadcast.  That's the closest era that I can compare to what broadcast may come-off like this year.

It'll be interesting to see how 'the commercials' frame the reality of kids being out of school.

[freedumb2003b]

Who takes the hardest hit from this?  The nfl or the network who bought the rights to televise the game?

Looks like rates are the same as last year.

BUT

There is always a proviso for refunding the advertisers if there are fewer eyeballs.

I and many millions of my fellow ex-nfl followers will be eschewing the game and its commercials, even on YT.

God willing, this will be lowest audience since SB I.  And the lowest share ever.  I hope nbc takes a freaking bath.

You and me and 10s of millions of others.

[DumbAss Tanker]

Too bad, we could use some actual mindless commercial humor.  I am barfing sick of all the feel-good BULLSHIT 'We're all in this together/be socially responsible like a good little Young Pioneer' crapfest that keeps spraying flecks all over the inside of my TV.

Of course around here viewership is gonna still be decent, since the Chiefs are playing and people here pretty much love Mahomes, and what's not to like, the guy is truly amazing to watch on the field.

Changing of the guard, maybe.  The best (and oldest) QB in history vs. the best of the new breed.

But I will have nothing to do with those woke bastards.  I have a special hate for the cowgirls when I saw jerry kneel with his girls for the Anthem in his little playground.

He and the nfl can kamela themselves and the horse they rode in on.

[Dark Powers]

Well this makes it more interesting. Seems you can't alter post after a certain period of time. This will make much of what I love doing much more difficult. Especially the political tracking.

Since I consider the game 'a Trump win' I can assess the commercials realistically.

They were awful.  Offensive in their utter inoffensiveness, a lot of them.  Hyper self-aware.  Too many unnecessary black-actors.  Embarrassing revivifications...  Like the Wayne's World one.  Cadillac's Edward Scissorhands ploy... pathetic. 

[freedumb2003b]

KC

Me too

I liken it to seeing a woman you really, really loved becoming a corner-dwelling hooker. 

I used to LIVE for the NFL  - never cared for the college game probably b/c I went to a college sans football.  I watched it religiously since 1969.  Just like you, I stopped watching 3 years ago when they started that flipping off the US flag by kneeling (aside: try doing that in ANY other country in the world -- you will be lynched by the fans). 

When it looked like the NFL was taking some steps to put a stop to that nonsense I started watching again for a short while.  But then they started again, in force.  When jerry and the cowgirls decided to take a knee collectively that was the end for me.

I miss it very much but just as I would never go to the hooker unless she came to me forswearing her new lifestyle I will have nothing to do with it.

I hope they get HAMMERED in the ratings: get woke, go broke, NFL!

[USA4ME]

Radical left-wing loser Bruce Springsteen trying to pretend he cares anything about the average American and is interested in unity was enough to cause me to lose attention.

Otherwise, glad Bucs won. Tampa has had quite the run in pro sports this last year.

For the most part, I will agree. Ether just bland. Or leftism pandering on full display.

Think maybe 3 - 4 good/funny one's. And this included some of the regional. And the few trailers.

Didn't bother watching the game. It will take a lot for the NFL to realize what they are doing to them selves, all in the name of making their criminal players happy. (80 arrest in the last 5 years)

[Ralph Wiggum]

Wasn't watching most of the game unless it was on mute, but found this nugget from near the conclusion via Fox News.  And it was from the national radio broadcast.

Kevin Harlan may have had the call of the night during Super Bowl LV.

Toward the end of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers’ domination of the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday, a fan ran onto the field and briefly disrupted the game. The fan appeared to be wearing a pink outfit with the words Vitaly Uncensored written across it.

Harlan, who was on Westwood One, called the incident as if the fan was running for a touchdown, breaking security guards’ tackles along the way. The man slid at the one and was met by about six guards when he went down.

"Some guy has run onto the field. Some guy with a bra," Harlan said. "Now, he’s not being chased. He’s running down the middle to the 40. Arms in the air and a victory salute. He’s pulling down his pants! Pull up your pants my man! Pull up those pants."

After the guards tackled the intruder: "Pull up the pants, take off the bra and be a man!"

Can't really readily imbed the audio call, but here it is on the FNC link:

Sounds like Harlan made an assumption of the man's sexual identity.   He can expect a temporary suspension, minimum of 8 weeks of sensitivity training and reinstatement to his announcing gig only after the high priests and priestess have determined he is thinking the "right way"

I read a story about this online.  I don't know if it's true, but if it is ... LOL!

They said he placed a $50k bet at +750 there would be a streaker on the field during the game.  A friend of his was a diversion so he didn't get caught too soon and he hit the field.  After he paid his friend and his $1,000 fine, he cleared $374k.

Hope it's true.  LOL
