i'm glad they didn't show that commercial. it was a lame commercial to begin with, not to mention, referencing to the whole "janet jackson incident" is SO last year...

That was banned? There was nothing indecent about that.

I guess media companies are just ridiculously sensitive these days.

This wasn't banned... AB decided not to air it. You can view it on the Budweiser web site.

Edit: They should have aired it, though. The GoDaddy commercial was far more tacky, and I haven't heard any complaints about that one.

I'm not sure I understand the offensive part. They implied something about a tasteless incident at last year's game.

Did I miss when innuendo became unacceptable? Was there a memo I didn't get? The frickin media is such a bunch of hypocritical pussies. That commercial won't air, but Fox shows some "Who's my REAL daddy?" load of crap. I guess we have to be selective as to what kind of awful TV we show these days.
