NFL Begs Fans for Ad Help

We’re convinced we told you this already but since a search through our archives gave us nothing, we’re going to call it Deja Vu and tell you again. In an ad that’s actually mildly funny, the NFL marketing board decides they need help after tossing around some frail ideas for the next Superbowl. Then the screen is molested by big letters that say PITCH US YOUR IDEA FOR THE BEST NFL SUPERBOWL COMMERCIAL. SERIOUSLY.

We’re fans of the whole “involve your audience” thing but wonder if people will start thinking marketers are getting lazy.

Guess there’s no harm in that. Once they get comfortable we can pounce on them like super-awesome ninja spider monkeys with our creative prowess, which will hopefully happen sometime before we all lose our jobs and go back to being occasionally witty baristas. – Contributed by Angela Natividad
