Super Bowl ads could arguably be the best part of this Sunday’s championship game. Companies are paying nearly $4 million for one 30-second Super Bowl ad this year, but as fans we don’t care if this is worthwhile for them, we just love the funny and witty commercials. We’ll judge and critique and scrutinize each one, mentally taking notes to determine the winning ad. And 48 hours later, after we relived the videos on YouTube and debated coworkers about the sexiest and most hilarious ads, we’ll start counting the days till next year’s stock. Youtube Ad Blitz is a great channel on Youtube that compiles all the best Super Bowl ads for you to watch and share; and adds in a load of extra content related to the non-football bits that so many of us love about the Super Bowl.

Though the big ‘did she lip sync the national anthem at the Inauguration‘ commotion is far from being behind her, Beyoncé has all her attention focused on Sunday eve, when eyes from the whole nation (and a big part of the other continents as well…) will be set on her Super Bowl XLVII Halftime Show. No one really knows if Beyoncé’s husband, rapper Jay-Z, would join her as an on-stage cameo, or if singer’s former co-stars in the female R & B group Destiny’s Child will complete their glamorous comeback in front of the biggest crowd television can provide… No matter what will happen you can bet it’s gonna be big and extravagant! We don’t know if Beyoncé will lip sync again, but we do know that it will be one hell of a show! She has posted rehearsal pictures on her website, so go on and check out her preparations for Sunday’s big show.
If football is not really you’re thing, or maybe not your significant other’s thing, all hope of getting involved in the Super Bowl fun is not lost, thanks to Animal Planet.

It itches… I know it is… Who wouldn’t want to take an active part of Superbowl XLVII and sit in the beautiful Mercedes-Benz Superdome in New Orleans, while the Harbaugh brothers go head to head? Stub Hub’s got a whole host of last minute tickets for this year’s Super Bowl. They’re all available at the click of a button, although the prices are really crazy. But hey, if you gotta go, you gotta go! Click here if you’re interested in buying that golden ticket, or even just curious as to how much it’d cost you…
10. The Site for Watching Online:
Watch the Super Bowl Live Online, on CBS – Haven’t got a TV? Away from the one you do have? Never fear, because the Super Bowl is being streamed completely live online via CBS’s Super Bowl Website. Last year NBC made a precedent by broadcasting the Superbowl on it’ s website. From now on then, every network that will broadcast it is obliged to do so as well (A good move for the little man… 😉 ) So you can check out all the pre game buzz now, and check back again on Sunday to catch the entire game live!
I couldn’t pick just one blog here, because there’s too many great choices. But here’s three that really stand out for interesting content: 1. Grantland – long articles, in-depth analysis, with a touch of humor 2. The Fifth Down – comprehensive, covers interesting stories, but hey, it’s the NY Times NFL Blog so it delivers where we’d expect it to! 3. SBNation Super Bowl Special – site for all things football, made by fans, for fans.

G'Day! Danny Davies,
Maybe a little off topic, however, The Super Bowl XLII Game is back and will be held at Arizona on Super Sunday 3rd Feb 2008. It's a day where New England Patriots will be looking to cap an 18-0 season with their fourth Super Bowl victory in seven years. This game is targeted to reach 1 billion audiences world wide but the best part is that people will be more interested in the super bowl xlii commercials ads than the actual game itself.
BTW great blogpost
