1. I'm interested in seeing Grown Ups
I may not like it but it's worth a try.

2. Me too. The movie ads. The beer ads. Men need an anti-defamation organization. nt

5. lol.
No, I meant the movie titled "Grown Ups". I thought that was the movie you were referring to when it comes movie ads featuring immature men. I think I might like the movie.

4. Yes. But you'd think a big ticket championship game would generate and reach out to
a slightly more diverse demographic.

6. I always thought that was a televised sports requirement.
I'm trying to think of any sport that doesn't have those. x(

7. I can't imagine it was worse than the Super Bowl
Though I only watched the last five minutes of the NCAA championship so I can't say.

The Super Bowl had some really wretchedly stupid and sexist ads this year. I really don't know why men aren't a little more put-off by being portrayed as fat, slovenly idiots CONSTANTLY.

8. Didn't watch the final, Cap'n.
Have seen pretty good ads about NCAAers WILL DO GOOD THINGS IN THE FUTURE, NOT related to sports.
