Hopefully all the money spent will at least get some people to the focus on the family website to read more. Otherwise, what a waste of money....think how many ultrasound machines couldnt have been bought and put in crisis pregnancy centers to show moms their baby!Steph Snoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-617484729830304927.post-70583236246944576612010-02-08T12:05:20.741-05:002010-02-08T12:05:20.741-05:00I blinked and missed it!
Glad you gave the link f...I blinked and missed it!<br /><br />Glad you gave the link for us all to see it again.<br /><br />Interesting that it followed right after the ad with Betty White and the other senior citizen getting tackled quite violently. I think I was still psychologically repairing myself from that ad, and then I saw Tebow tackle his mother. I said to my wife, "What is it with all the 'tackling' ads?" And then, we realized that the second tackling ad was the Tebow ad. And it was done. I didn't even hear what she said.<br /><br />I thought it lost some of its possible impact because of that placement. Was that intentional by CBS? Don't know.<br />(They did the same thing with two consecutive unrelated commercials with large numbers of underwear-clad men. I'm sure those two advertisers weren't too happy about that either. I certainly could have done without the underwear.)<br /><br />As usual, most disturbing is the pervasiveness of the sexually provocative. I wish I had counted the number of commercials that ended with a flash of sexual content (beer ads and Go Daddy, especially). It would have been an interesting stat.<br /><br />Jim WAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
