I don’t see what was so wrong with the GoDaddy.com commercial. Was it just because the guy was acting flamboyant/effeminate? I mean, thought it was fine.

Oh please. I’m like a police dog when it comes to racism, I can always sniff it out, but I don’t see nothing wrong with this commercial. So what gay black men don’t exist? Whoever fought to keep this commercial off the air needs fight against actual forms of racism in the media because this wasn’t it. They can start with that Netflix commercial, where they have monkeys dressed in stereotypical hip hop clothes. How did that one get by them?

SO WHAT!

God forbid gay people get offended.

Exactly who is that fat c o o n who will sell his soul just to get an acting gig?

I’m a homosexual male and I wasn’t offended by the GoDaddy commercial at all. I thought it was hilarious and shows how easy it is to create a website using GoDaddy.com. Some people are just too sensitive.

I am glad that the pulled the godaddy commercial. Image is important. I know that there are gay black men, thuggish black men and ignorant black men. These are the images that we see on television and (whether you agree or not) it type casts all of our men that way. We should control our images better. We should show more of our men in more positive images.

Now that requires us to put more positivity in our lives and not thrive in ignorance. I am sick of ignorant/violent behavior being the understood standard of what it means to be Black/African American/Negro/Colored or whatever we are called.

The Tim Tebow commerical….I really don’t care. It is one thing to say, “don’t abort your baby…choose life”. Where are these same people when life is chosen? Nowhere. These are the same people who then want to tell you things like:

1. Haitians made deals with the devil for their independence
2. God destroyed New Orleans because they sinned

and on and on and on.

that is the least racist thing ive ever scene…. i feel people are being racist by saying its racist..
and as for the tim tebow thing.. people are going to make there own choice whether he likes it or not

It’s not an anti-abortion ad. It’s a pro-life ad.

Can someone tell me where an organization called “Focus on the Family” who just a few months ago had to fire several hundred people and thus kick their families to the curb, http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/n/a/2009/09/02/national/a150027D78.DTL got the 2.5 plus million dollars to run an ad during the super bowl. so those people who donated to them, had their money go not for resources that the organization needed, but rather to purchase air time to discuss an issue, that is a wedge at best, because while this organization claims to have a “burden” for the unborn, my question is what do they do for the kids that are already here, dying from either hunger or neglect??

The first line of the Godaddy.com is why it is banned.

“When Lola retired from football” the NFL is not going to publically entertain the idea of closeted gay football players during its biggest event.

Black sterotypes be damned, the NFL has a huge conservative fan base.

i dont see nothing wrong with both of the commercials. those superbowl people need to get their head out their asses.

LOL. IF anything those McDonalds commercials are racist with those horrible black actors or washed up R&B stars singing about burgers…… smh

Ok,this Danica Patrick & baller commercial is more offensive to the gay community than it is racist IMO.Anyways,for the SuperBowl is when these outrageous commercials tend to surface,nothing new. Marketing & shock value @ it’s finest

The anti-abortion ad shouldn’t be ran during the Superbowl though. I find that unnecessary,wrong timing since it’s a family-oriented event.

Fine, then anti-”good morals” ads should also not be run…if that is really the format you are going to take. If they have the money to run it, they have the right…again, what is the harm it will do??? State what they believe? Tell me again why is that so bad? I am pretty sure that they will not once say in the commercial that people who have abortions are horrible people..they are just saying that life is wonderful…and anyone who disagrees isnt really looking at the purpose of this commercial.

that godaddy was banned not for racism, but for the same reason Espn Playmakers was banned! NFL is not having gay talk out in the open, its a dont ask dont tell league.

@ Hollywood I think you’re right. Other than that I don’t see the problem with the Godaddy.com ad.

I can see why the go daddy ad was rejected. The NFL is so full of macho conservatives hence why they feel it ok for a man to pontificate about womens issues. I find it strange that this old white man thinks HE knows what is best for women and our bodies. I woul dlov e to know how he votes when it comes to womens’ issues. OR when it comes to low income children. They care so much about the fetus and nothing about the actual child when its born. And Tebow’s mother claims she was in the phillipines and they suggested an abortion…well in case she missed the memo abortion is illegal in the phillipenes so exactly when would they suggest it? Abortion has been around longer than their religion. I wonder what the argument would be if men were the ones to be pregnant? I bet they wouldn’t want women telling how to handle it and I know there would be no issue with abortion. The superbowl is no place for their soap box!

Not into seeing men act effeminate so I’m glad that was pulled.

Black ppl just don’t care about how they are viewed in the world… why didn’t they hv a fat white guy instead of the bro… that would hv truly been funny… fat white guys are comedy, but fat black gay guys are very sad. Maybe b/c of the state of the black family. TRUE BUT SAD.

Speaking of blacks and abortion:

Anyone ever heard of Margret Sanger? She’s the founder of Planned Parenthood. She considered blacks and other minorities no better than vermin, and wanted to control their population with forced abortion and sterilization.

That’s right. The biggest Democrat lobbying group, PLANNED PARENTHOOD, was created to kill unborn black babies.

What is wrong with Danica Patrick promoting pimpstitution that’s happens on a regular??

You thought wrong. Some are funny. Some are thoughtful and poignant. The best SB commercial, the 1984 Apple ad, wasn’t the least bit funny.

Me that’s a bunch of garbage. Most pro-life republicans are also pro death penalty. Tell me how can you be pro-life but be for the the death penalty. It’s the hypocrisy here that kills me. they just use the pro-life agenda to get poor white and black people to vote against their best interests. I don’t know anyone that’s for abortion, but if I’m not going to help financially when the decision is made. I don’t think I have a say in the matter. I’m an independent by the way and view everthing from the center.

Sure. Easy question to answer. The Constitution allows for the death penalty. Fifth Amendment.

“No person shall … be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law;”

Besides, the federal government exceeded it’s authority in Row v Wade, to wit, the Tenth Amendment.

TENTH AMENDMENT – The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution… are reserved to the states respectively, or to the people.

When the feds tells all 50 states they must allow abortions to take place, that’s unConstitutional. Each state has the right, under the Tenth Amendment, to decide for itself if it wants to permit medical abortions.

Debbie don’t hide behind the constitution answer the question. How can you be pro-life and be for the death penalty? This is not a legal arguement but a spritual one.

@debbie

If you agree with the death penalty, then you go first.

Simple.

@me

CBS is a private coporation not the damn government.

Godaddy commercial was dumb big deal

You mean, commit suicide? What does suicide have to do with the death penalty? I don’t understand what your point is.

Steve wrote: “How can you be pro-life and be for the death penalty? This is not a legal arguement but a spritual one.”

It’s the Constitution. It says no one shall be denied life without due process. An unborn human hasn’t received due process. A convicted murderer has received due process.

@debbie desjardins

“It’s the Constitution. It says no one shall be denied life without due process. An unborn human hasn’t received due process. A convicted murderer has received due process.”

That is the legal view, I think Steve was referring to the moral view. At the end of the day you are still condoning putting a man to death. Is this not murder in itself ? Abortion is a woman’s ultimate right ; no religious zealots or right wing reborn types will ever repeal it.

Debbie wrote:It’s the Constitution. It says no one shall be denied life without due process. An unborn human hasn’t received due process. A convicted murderer has received due process.

Debbie just to let you know I’m for the death penalty as long as the person comitted the crime, but that’s another discussion. The point I’m trying to make is you can’t be pro-life only when its fits your political agenda. you are pro-unborn life not pro-life but that your decision and I respect it.

Okay, I have to comment on this post.

(A) I dont understand why the commercial with Danica Patrick and “Lola” was pulled.

(B) I dont see the controversy in stating your position on abortion, especially if its a personal story that you are sharing.

Can anyone explain how these two topics are actually an issue?

Planned parenthood has access to every child who attends public school. It is a known fact that they are a business who profits off of our children!!!… They get to market to our children every day..telling them that the girls have a “right” to go to planned parenthood and do not have to consult with their own families..(you know the ones who pay for them to be there in the first place!!)… Our children need to hear the truth about what abortion really is..

Football, schmootball…. we all have rights… including the unborn…. Our young women must understand that it is in fact “their right” to have their own child. They do not have to submit to public pressure to kill their unborn….
This commercial’s message is giving the unborn a voice.. Tiller is a gift from God!!! I thank God that he is alive and here with us… instead of the alternative… like all of the millions of aborted (murdered) babies who didn’t get their own voice or chance at life…

Not Tiller..but Tebow… Sorry.

@ Capria30

WELL SAID

Go Tebow! You have every right to express your beliefs.

I agree with those that say they don’t see anything wrong with the GoDaddy.com commercial.

That GoDaddy commercial is enough to make me never do business with them. …and it wasn’t even halfway funny.

I don’t see anything wrong with the Godaddy commercial with the “flaming” black guy because there are dudes in this world both black, white and latin who live and act like this. Second the anti-abortion commercial is insane. First, a women’s body is her body and she can do whatever she wants (accept get fat). And are all of these anti-abortion people lining up these kids who weren’t the victims of abortions? Hell no!

I could care less about either commercial. My only issue is who the hell is tim tebow and what makes him a spokesman for anti-abortion? I could see if he had the ability to have children but he doesnt so what he thinks means nothing to me. It like me trying to become a spokeswoman for penial implants. Where are all these right to lifers when children are born do they contribute to feeding housing and clothing the kids-hell no. Abortion is a personal choice of WOMEN and women alone.

Religion and religious centers should be treated like strip clubs. We all have different views about them so we keep them in “that” part of town. I don’t mind whatever religion or religious view, but I don’t want it UP IN MY FACE!!!

So, you gonna stop using money? IN GOD WE TRUST.

Apparently the ad agency for GoDaddy.com had one too many connecting flights in the ATL — because that commercial is UNDER-stated, compared to some of the ish that I have seen black gays do in that town.

I thought the godaddy commercial was funny. Why act like gays don’t exist. If you know who you are there should be no problems… Too sensistive people.

As for the other one…..meh, whatever!

gimme a break….pro-life = anti-abortion
either way, dont think i want to bring down my super bowl high with questions of morality.

Go Daddy….they knew that s$%t was NOT gonna fly when they made it! If Isaiah Washington got in trouble for calling a man a F-G, they were not gonna get away with showing a former football player (although fictional) turned girly man during one of the manliest events of the year!

Okay, what is the BIG problem with the Tebow commerical? Because Super Bowl is the biggest night in sports and it is a “family night”? What about all of the sexually infused commericals that are shown NO – ONE is crying it is family night then when you have half dressed women selling anything. How about this if you don’t want to see the Tebow commerical turn the television

THIS is the Go Daddy commercial that gets banned???? I see nothing offensive about it – just an unusual take on a former manly-man football player following his next dream. Why should it be offensive that it is one traditionally considered more to the feminine? Like that’s a bad thing? I am, however, unimpressed (at best) with pretty much every other commercial they’ve offered up. I just assumed they only appealed to the straight redneck male market since their commercials are SO sexist with transparent innuendo about things like two girls hooking up. Strip clubs would come up with less offensive ads (see Hooters ads for reference material). It’s disgusting to portray women like that – although Danica is probably pleased that she has found a more honest avenue to her true market(rednecks) with her only true “talent” (her looks).

As for Tebow…whatever…at least its a real story with a happy ending- Too bad Hitler’s mom isn’t available for the counterpoint.

So? It’s not exactly a secret.

Oh come on! I don’t read anything on the money besides the amount. That is an extreme question. My money is in my pocket or the bank. Not up in my face.

Is that religious television show on Channel 17 on Sunday morning IN YOUR FACE? Nope. Neither is a Super Bowl commercial. It’s not IN YOUR FACE either.
