Ugh, is right.

As the hosts on WEEI said on my way home tonight, we are all sad, frustrated and upset...but we all have each other to get through it. Tonight's game was not what a lot of us had anticipated for Patriots history, but the Giants played well.

Anyways, on to lighter things, a review of the Superbowl ads. One, they sucked, am I right? Nothing really lighted the mood. However, some ads were good. Below is my pick for companies that made it work:

1. The Pepsi commercials. The Diet Pepsi, "Night at the Roxbury" ad was entertaining, and of course the Justin Timberlake ad was cute. I would like no one else but him to say "Hey You" to me.
2. The NFL Super/Superbowl Ads - the stories were cute and funny.
3. E-trade's baby ad. Renting a clown, the whole bit worked.
4. The only Bud ad that worked was the one where Will Farrell pimped his new movie. "Bud Light - Great Valentine's Day Gift. Bud Light - Suck One."
