Super Bowl XL Highlights Lowlights Girl in the Locker Room loved: The tricky two-handoff play that led to  wide receiver Antwaan Randel El's touchdown pass. Reminded me of those loopy semi-cheating plays we make up during touch football at the beach. (yes, yes I know generically it's called a flea-flicker but does anyone know the origin of the reference?? why fleas?)   Girl in the Locker Room hated: The molten "model" woman followed by "model" car in the Escalade ad and the naked girl silhouette selling the Honda truck. Did you know that more than half of all new cars sold in the U.S. annually are purchased by women? Did you know that according to a Gallup poll 54% of U.S. women planned to watch the Super Bowl? Can someone tell GM and Honda? The Ameriquest "friendly skies" ad, tasteless and offensive to just about everyone. Women reporters once again relegated to shouting from the sidelines inbetween plays. -RH 11:19:31 PM    comment []
