  1. I missed the Tebows ad entirely, I just watched it on YouTube. I thought it was fine.

    I have no problem with people speaking up for what they believe. I just think every woman deserves the right to choose for themselves unhampered by the other side.

    Was there a rebuttal ad that played during the Super Bowl?

  2. Most of the giants have now done the Super Bowl haltime show:

    Prince, McCartney, the Stones, the Who, U2, Springsteen, etc.

    I think it’s time to bring back Carol Channing, who performed at Super Bowl IV in New Orleans in 1970.

  3. The much touted anti-abortion ad passed by me nearly unnoticed. In grad school I once knew a single mom who had a nine-year-old daughter she would bring to social outings. One night the mom and I went out drinking (she was trying to set me up with a friend of hers) and she told me a story about how this total jerk got her pregnant and she went to Planned Parenthood for an abortion, but wasn’t sure. The PP staffer told her it was now or never, they were booked, so she had to decide. She couldn’t go through with it she said.

    “Wait…that was in ’89? Nine years ago? Isn’t Hannah nine?” I said.

    “Yeah, it was her I would have aborted,” she said.
