In watching the Super Bowl and the advertisers wet dream of eyes not only watching but actively interested in the ads being played I came up with my own ad that should be made.
It would be for Bud Light and plays off their series of ads where guys do stupid things to steal Bud Light because it is such incredibly delicious beer. There are a bunch of ads in the series from the aliens offering Bud Light to the men to help keep their species alive to the guys drilling through the wall and refrigerator of the apartment next door to steal the Bud Light in the fridge. And many, many more.

UFC 126 Scorecard
FanFest in San Francisco ended up being a good day. We were pretty sure we weren't even going to get in since Murph announced the event was sold out while we were still driving into the city. But we went anyway, wandered around the outside of the park and then got lucky as they opened the 2nd Street Gate and we were able to walk out onto the field with literally no wait at all!
Damn, there were some crazy ass fights last night. A snoozer in Torres vs Banuelos but most of the rest of the card was pretty darned good. And the whole night culminated in the kick heard round the world as Anderson Silva retained his title, extended his record wins and title defenses and made Vitor Belfort smell his foot before he went to bed!

Super Bowl XLI Prediction
I don't have a real horse in today's Super Bowl match up. I like some things about the Colts and I like alot of things about Da Bears so, in a one to one matchup, I'm more of a Bears fan than a Colts fan.
And only a little bit tinged by my up-raising in Baltimore during the era when the Colts were stolen in the middle of the night.
My prediction for today's game is for the Bears to win, final score 31-24. Not for them to beat the spread (7 points last I checked) but for the Bears to win outright. What am I basing this on? [Update 3:13 pm: With a wet field and conditions, I'd knock three points off each score, maybe more if the rain holds up.]
Defense, fire and special teams.
There's no question that Peyton Manning is a far superior quarterback at this stage in his career than Rex Grossman. That's not really debatable.
But the Bears defense is well rested, fired up and is going to really make things tough on Peyton to get his job done. And yes, Manning has weapons to use in Marvin Harrison, Joseph Addai, Dallas Clark and Dominic Rhodes. But you watch the Bears D come on strong and smack them right in the mouth.
On the Bears offensive side, Rex is shaky and it'll remain to be seen if Good Rex or Bad Rex shows up today. But he's also got some weapons to make use of.
The game will, as many NFL games do, come down to special teams and turnovers. If the Bears can strip the ball or intercept it more than twice, they'll win. If not then they'll lose. And don't be surprised if Devon Hester lights up the scoreboard on a kick return.
Either way, it'll be a good game and I'm looking forward to it.
[Update: Nine twenty pm, Colts by 12. Damn. The game got kind of boring in the second half. Oh well, nice job Peyton, Tony and the rest of the guys.]

Super Stupidity for Super Bowl Sunday
NFL Wants To Remind You That Having People Over To Watch The Super Bowl On A Big Screen Is Copyright Infringement
I saw that Rick had written about this and it reminded me that I wanted to pen a quick note.
If you watch the Super Bowl on a 55 inch or larger screen then the NFL says you are infringing on their copyright. Putting aside the utter stupidity of this pronouncement, how in the hell are they going to enforce this? Spies all across the nation? Bounties for evidence of the "infringement"?
The NFL needs to really think about what this says to fans and casual fans who tune in just for the Super Bowl. Just like the incredibly stupid warning not to disseminate broadcasts or accounts of their broadcasts, that means you are, technically, not allowed to even talk about a football game you watched on TV. And that is just incredibly stupid.
Maybe the NFL's taken too many hits upside the head?
[Update: Brian Krebs at Security Fix has just posted an alert about a Trojan horse on the Dolphin Stadium website (where the SuperBowl is being played in two days).]
