It's hard to believe that Mean Joe and The Kid remains as one of the most popular ads ever created specifically for the Super Bowl. Appearing first during Super Bowl XIV in 1980, along with the unforgettable line “Hey Kid, Catch!,” the ad was an instant favorite. The famous line was uttered by a newly smiling Greene as he tossed his Pittsburgh Steelers jersey to then nine-year-old Tommy Okon (the child fan).
Created in October 1979, America discovered that all “Mean” Joe Greene needed after a hard game was a Coke to make him smile. McCann-Erickson’s Clio Award-winning ad “Have a Coke and a Smile” campaign told the heartwarming story of an injured and down-spirited Greene and a kid fan. In the end, grumpy Greene and the ardent fan both share a Coke, and a smile.
Back in the late 70's up through 1989 when I sold my agency and we moved to St. John, I was in the advertising/marketing business in both New York and New Jersey. I remember vividly hosting Super Bowl parties where we religiously watched - for the ads - every year, not really giving a shit who won or lost, but instead we had the parties just for the ad viewing. Certainly some of the most memorable ads ever created were created specifically for the 'Big Game', and some of them were truly memorable, none so much, I believe, as this one. Just my opinion...

Contrary to their leftie/liberal mindset a majority of voters in all segments (and they do that why? Because they themselves are racists?) want voter IDs. Must have been one giant kick in their buts - assuming, of course, that they actually have 'nads. Juss' sayin'...

I wonder - if you go to a Subway store in India, are there a bunch of white guys working there? Asking for a friend...

It's gotten so bad with so many people moving out of Jersey that they're now bribing people to not move. The Stay NJ program offers property tax benefits to eligible homeowners aged 65 and older. It reimburses applicants for 50% of their property tax bills, up to a maximum of $13,000, with a 2025 benefit cap of $6,500. To qualify, you must have owned and lived in a home for the full 12 months of 2025 and have an income below $500,000. If you made P.I.L.O.T. (Payments-in-Lieu-of-Tax) payments to your municipality, you are eligible for the Stay NJ benefit. Mobile homeowners and snow birds are not eligible.

Anyway, the reason I mention this is because he texted me this picture last night, saying that that's his dream suite on any cruise. If they have room service, he'd never leave the suite. Funny shit, huh?

In a move that can only be described as both progressive and potentially confusing for fans, iconic punk rock band Green Day has announced a radical transformation. The band, known for its rebellious spirit, has decided to change its name to G’ay, embracing a colorful and inclusive identity in a bid to stay on the cutting edge of societal evolution.
Lead singer Billie Joe Armstrong, adorned in a kaleidoscope of glittering accessories, made the announcement at a press conference that felt more like a fabulous runway show. “We’re all about breaking boundaries and challenging norms,” he declared, tossing a handful of rainbow confetti into the air. “The new name reflects our commitment to inclusivity, diversity, and a damn good time.”
