Dang! Not a football or advert fan, but....

Married to a Pats fan so sort of stuck tonight.

I was sickened a year or so ago with the pervasive violence in the commercials.

Tonight I have been struck by the anti - bullying, kindness, etc. .. in the adverts. The not invisible Mindy Kaling Nationwide ad was stunning to a feminist.

Shocking really.

Sad this is note worthy.

for anything but what it is. McDonald's and the RCC are both really good at it.
