SAME OLD, SAME OLD

So the superbowl this year was pretty… boring… I was rooting for the Colts but it wasn’t a huge disaster when they lost. What was a huge disaster were the superbowl commercials. Is there any company out there willing to make a commercial that will actually make an impact or cause a stir or be funny? The closest thing I got to being impressed was the Doritos commercial with the kid slapping the man telling him not to touch his mama or his Doritos. Other than that… boring, same commercials that have been on the last two years. Everything about the superbowl this year felt “safe”. I’m not saying I can come up with better ads I’m just saying I wish companies would take more risks and put out memorable, clever, boundary pushing material. Google had pretty nice commercial too.

A lot of people can’t stand him. I can. Don’t care about his wishy washy decision making. Don’t care about the packers or the jets. I just thought he was a beast this year. I found some photos online of Brett Favre after the Saints game. He’s a tough dude. Check it out here.

Matt Stansberry and I are embarking on a long journey through the amazon. Figuratively speaking. I will be doing illustrations for a children’s book(s) he is working on. Here is the first illustration layer in pencil. Head hunters.

SUPA BOWL

Drew Brees
VS
Peyton Manning

Who to root for? I love Peyton Manning and think he is a funny, classy guy. On the other hand Drew Brees is a beast and I think the town of New Orleans could use something like a Superbowl Championship to really help their city. Any thoughts?
