Dummies guide to Super Bowl 50 (click here)
The Carolina Panthers and the Denver Broncos will battle it out on Monday to be crowned champions of Super Bowl 50.
The NFL's best offence (the Panthers) go up against the best defence (the Broncos), with two of the league's most iconic quarterbacks fighting to see their team lift the Vince Lombardi trophy.
The Superbowl is a very big capitalism project. Among that evidence are the commercials which are coveted beyond the game.
For a very long time, "Spuds" from Budweiser won the hearts of Americans. But, in recent years "Spuds" has been retired and the classic Budweiser Draft Horses and their Budweiser Wagon that mimics the idea of past vehicles of delivery to taverns. Known in some circles as the no-carbon alternative to delivery of brewers.

Sunday's Super Bowl (click here)
Sunday's Super Bowl (click here) commercials feature hot guys, hot girls, hot cars and, yes, hot dogs in the form of flying Dachshunds. Also ready to roll are the Clydesdales, singing sheep, "Kung Fu Panda" and loads of celebrities. More than three dozen stars will appear in commercials during the big game, according to iSpot.tv which analyzes Super Bowl ad trends.
Christopher Walken, though, can easily steal the show. Walken pops up in a 60 second commercial for the new Kia Optima sedan called, "Walken Closet." The spot is a bit kooky - but would you expect anything less from a high-profile production starring Walken? For the car company, the Academy Award-winning actor was a perfect "get."...
If unfamiliar with "Seven Psychopaths:" it is very violent. I consider more violent than anything Quentin Tarantino has directed and/or starred in. This is considered "the best scene" from the "Seven Psychopaths."
There is nothing like bringing violence to the Super Bowl by proxy.
