Super Bowl Headlines

February 4, 2008 · 4 Comments

While I am on the subject, one of my favorite things about the Super Bowl are the punny headlines that come out the next day or on Web sites just after the game. I was in sports for two years, and it was always fun to encapsulate an entire event in one or two words at the top of the page. This year’s crop is filled with puns and cliches. There are so many angles.

Here are some of my favorites so far. I can’t remember where I saw all of them though:

Nobody’s Perfect (the best one I have seen yet, from MSNBC) 
Giant Killers
Near perfect 
A Giant Upset (saw this a lot. Well it and its less original cousins, A Giant(s) Upset, Giant Heartbreak and Giant Letdown, mostly from the Boston area papers.)
Giants Slay Goliath 
Ginormous 
Not Perfect, Just Better (and its cousin, Better than perfect)
It’s True Blue 

Please add you favorites.

Super Bowl Commercials

February 4, 2008 · Leave a Comment

Last night’s was one of the best Super Bowls I have seen, well, probably ever, but the commercials left much to be desired. So for your viewing pleasure, here is the best Super Bowl commercial of all time, from two years ago.

I will probably update later with actual news blogs, but I thought I would whet your appetite a little. Enjoy.
