Super bowl XLII ads....

[poltr1]

I missed the first half of the game, dropping off M and chatting with R. I watched the second half at my favorite sports bar, which was nearly barren.

Here's MSN/Fox Sports' ranking of the 10 best commercials, along with links to quarter-by-quarter ad lists. (And if you can watch streaming video, links to the commercials.)

My favorites? Coke (with the parade balloons), cars.com (Witch Doctor), Audi R8.

[Updated 12:20] USA Today has their ad meter and Flash versions of the commercials here.

Sorry about that. In defense of the practice, though, I think it's standard now for video sites to show commercials before any type of streaming video. After all, someone's gotta pay for the bandwidth and the server space. And until we have a pay-as-you-go Internet, this will continue to be the standard. Argh.

Well, I don't demand an apoplogy, but it is kind of weird, ya know...
