These POS companies should only make commercials that are advertising their products and focused on their products.
They shouldn't make commercials telling us how to think or feel. They shouldn't make commercials telling us we're racists or guilty. They shouldn't make commercials promoting men pretending to be women.
Yes and millions fewer than last year, which was millions fewer than the year before.
Imagine, if you will, having a time machine where you could go back and correct one big mistake. Not sticking to a simple policy of "All Players Quietly Stand For The Anthem" would be that mistake for the NFL.
If you're watching TV you're being told what to think and how to feel. That shit is designed to control you. Sports and all the other bullshit time wasters are to keep morons preoccupied so the government can raid the coffers.
Maybe they're claiming that, but I suspect the underlying reason is far more basic: CBS paid through the ass for the super bowl years ago before BLM was a thing, they need to keep prices high for ads to get their money back. However thanks to the hand egg joggers little social justice temper tantrum nobody with money actually wants to watch the super bowl, so the ROI simply isn't there for Pepsi and Coke.
That’s my thinking. It’s not that they are worried about offending anyone (lord knows they’ve never given a shit about offending conservatives). It’s all about the money.
If I were CBS, I'd sue the NFL for deliberately alienating the audience. Surely the contract between CBS and the NFL has some clause about the NFL grossly mismanaging the league and causing people to stop watching in droves.
They are still buying ads but not for “budwieser”. Just all the other crap drinks they sell. They are playing both sides and folks that only read headlines will fall for it.
Only sport that might have some staying power is baseball but even they are suffering. Fans are not patrons for politics. They are there for quite the opposite; to escape it. Why we have to keep learning this lesson over and over I do not know. NFL knew this would happen because it already happened last time. Looks like they let everyone virtual signal to the tilt, get it out the way, pull everyone through the clown tent then kicked it over. Well it's not over. We are pissed for having to enter the circus. Not going through this again. Millions are done with all of it.
Agree. I'm done with all of it and I was a big patron. Just invested in my own high dollar oasis in the backyard. Hotub, pool, bar, grill area. Went all out. Fuck it. Only thing I might attend is WWE. Went for the first time in 2020 before shit hit the fan. We all had a great time.
Maybe you haven't heard about the fact that the MLB was one of the groups that pressured Cleveland Indians ownership to first drop Chief Wahoo, and then announce that they will change their name.
Baseball is the worst of them all. They threw away their audience when the teams started signing exclusive contracts to Regional Sports Networks. They've been spiraling in the bowl ever since.
What pay gap, bigot? Are you implying there is a space between two things? Implying there isn't an infinite spectrum of genders upon which we are all generously sprinkled like pearly drops of genetic material?
Yay. But do what I do and brew your own. It's legal and tastes hella better with more kick than the lame ass shit that's out there. You'll make awesome friends!
It's the Budweiser beer itself not Inbev. They are still advertising bud light and bud seltzer etc. They are virtue signaling for the quote about the ad council. That's all. They will be still spending millions, aaaand millions on commercials.
Seriously the NFL bowed to a couple players throwing tantrums and the lefty establishment and alienated all their fans. They are just stupid it’s why we call them libtards.
"Budweiser will give the money it might have spent on running a Super Bowl commercial to the Ad Council, an industry coalition that produces and places public-service announcements, to help raise awareness of the benefits of getting the coronavirus vaccine."
I love how Variety is couching it as "because of the pandemic".
Oh people aren't buying Budweiser, Pepsi and Coke "because of the pandemic" or are they not staying home and watching football "because of the pandemic"?
This is a start, it is not enough, we must continue to look at the economics behind our daily lives and cut out the corporations that have fucked us. Buy local brew, and pick up a good soda syrup recipe + seltzer. Serve with lime.
I quit watching afrikan football 2 years ago. Ungreatful bunch America hating bastards . Hating America but not enough to give all the millions of American dollars I guess.
I won't be watching, but this is a good thing. They may not agree with us, (then again, they may, but sold their souls), but they realize we are voting with our dollars. As long as it hurts the NFL, and the networks, I love it.
Hmmm...weird how when everyone is stuck at home and there is little out there for entertainment that Super Bowl commercials would not be huge this year. Wonder what is going on? Could it be the NFL is hurting for viewers? Seems the advertisers don’t think it is a good investment...
This isn't the whole story. If you watch the Super Bowl you will be browbeaten to take the vaccine. Watching the game on mute. Gotta see if Brady gets number 7...
Wait.... now they are pretending to be the "good guys"?
Fuck them all.

They're not buying ads because no one watches football any more.
Go woke get broke
Not really true. Lots of people still watch it, especially the superbowl.
This is going to be the lowest rated Superbowl since the 70’s.
Likely so, but that doesn't mean millions won't be watching.
Especially since Tom Brady is making an astounding 10th Superbowl appearance.. I'll skip it... but many wont.
Yes and millions fewer than last year, which was millions fewer than the year before.
Imagine, if you will, having a time machine where you could go back and correct one big mistake. Not sticking to a simple policy of "All Players Quietly Stand For The Anthem" would be that mistake for the NFL.
They gambled.
THEY LOST
But millions less than the very recent past when they started openly hating straight white America loving men.
Some, but peak football has passed.
Lefties hate sports and team competition and they've alienated their base with the woke shit

Not to mention, good luck creating a funny memorable commercial with today's SJWs.

I wonder..
My thought exactly.
They are still buying ads but not for “budwieser”. Just all the other crap drinks they sell. They are playing both sides and folks that only read headlines will fall for it.
theyre giving the money to pro vaccine ad instead. read the article.
So they traded one retarded cause for another. Got it.
exactly. theyre still playing the game they just think it will placate us.
What is this "Super Bowl" of which you speak?
A superb owl that is worthy of attention
This one?

I defecated in my super bowl.

MLB opened their season with BLM crap and everyone kneeling. Fuck that shit
Agree. I'm done with all of it and I was a big patron. Just invested in my own high dollar oasis in the backyard. Hotub, pool, bar, grill area. Went all out. Fuck it. Only thing I might attend is WWE. Went for the first time in 2020 before shit hit the fan. We all had a great time.
Don't shy away from ufc!
WWE is great to go to in person.
It's really shit watching it on TV with no fans. Just doesn't work
Maybe you haven't heard about the fact that the MLB was one of the groups that pressured Cleveland Indians ownership to first drop Chief Wahoo, and then announce that they will change their name.
NO sport is immune from the bullshit.
Fucked up thing is, the majority of the natives I know liked the Native teams, bought their jerseys and shit, were proud.
Its ironically white women/xirs taking this away from them.
hello out there, were on the air, its HOCKEY night tonight.
nah im not watching currently cause im lockdown so why should those cunts get to play if I cannot. They are not my superiors
Baseball is the worst of them all. They threw away their audience when the teams started signing exclusive contracts to Regional Sports Networks. They've been spiraling in the bowl ever since.
Wow, Budweiser...lol, that's hilarious.
Too bad. I was really looking forward to hearing about the pay gap.
What pay gap, bigot? Are you implying there is a space between two things? Implying there isn't an infinite spectrum of genders upon which we are all generously sprinkled like pearly drops of genetic material?
Get fucked chud!!1
Probably because of viewership, which means this would only be an indirect result of the politics.
Yay. But do what I do and brew your own. It's legal and tastes hella better with more kick than the lame ass shit that's out there. You'll make awesome friends!
Plus it's not that hard, just requires patience. Making mead is easy too, just requires waiting.
Yes. and Noooooo. Worst. Headaches. Ever. lol
Pepsi is still doing the half time show
Pretty sure they're contracted to through 2025.. which means they've already spent that money
because they know hardly anyone is going to watch the game
don't buy into the hype they care. they just not putting money into the super bowl since no one watches it and the ads are too expensive.
They will just put their ads on youtube and websites since they get traffic and cheaper ads.
It's the Budweiser beer itself not Inbev. They are still advertising bud light and bud seltzer etc. They are virtue signaling for the quote about the ad council. That's all. They will be still spending millions, aaaand millions on commercials.
Bud Seltzer? This first I've heard of such nonsense.
That's because you're not a faggot.
If you would read the article to the end you'd already know.
They are still buying ads, just not for the Budweiser brand.
Yes! Budweiser. I wouldn’t share my horses either.
Seriously the NFL bowed to a couple players throwing tantrums and the lefty establishment and alienated all their fans. They are just stupid it’s why we call them libtards.
At this rate it's going to be "This year's superbowl is brought to you by... Nike"
"Budweiser will give the money it might have spent on running a Super Bowl commercial to the Ad Council, an industry coalition that produces and places public-service announcements, to help raise awareness of the benefits of getting the coronavirus vaccine."
Knock yourself out. I ain't buyin'!
There's a super bowl? Never heard of her
Molson-Coors donated to Trump's campaign, just so you know.
Why advertise a ratings disaster?
Pepsi still sponsoring the half time show though, saw the ads for it Sunday
I hate “professional sports”. Isn’t it all fixed anyway?
This is where those cocksuckers try to get us back as their customers.
Ain’t nobody watching that anti-AMERICAN BS!
just virtue signalling to push the vaccine instead of spending money on ads to a dwindling audience
I love how Variety is couching it as "because of the pandemic".
Oh people aren't buying Budweiser, Pepsi and Coke "because of the pandemic" or are they not staying home and watching football "because of the pandemic"?
Literally neither of those makes any sense!
This is a start, it is not enough, we must continue to look at the economics behind our daily lives and cut out the corporations that have fucked us. Buy local brew, and pick up a good soda syrup recipe + seltzer. Serve with lime.
Womp womp
Awesome
I quit watching afrikan football 2 years ago. Ungreatful bunch America hating bastards . Hating America but not enough to give all the millions of American dollars I guess.
Hahahahhahaha!! It's going to be a beautiful thing when we find out that the Puppy Bowl beat the Superbowl's ratings!
This just fills me with such fucking joy
This decision will get them more publicity than if they had run ads. Genius.
Hilarious news! Think the message may be sinking in yet boys? Hahahahahahaha!
Wasn’t going to watch that shit show anyways
The new ‘normal’ aye?
I won't be watching, but this is a good thing. They may not agree with us, (then again, they may, but sold their souls), but they realize we are voting with our dollars. As long as it hurts the NFL, and the networks, I love it.
Hmmm...weird how when everyone is stuck at home and there is little out there for entertainment that Super Bowl commercials would not be huge this year. Wonder what is going on? Could it be the NFL is hurting for viewers? Seems the advertisers don’t think it is a good investment...
Except Pepsi puts weird shit into their recipe.
Right, so they just sponsored the Take a Knee , BLM and One Year of Riots -- all in all 4 years of tearing America apart .
Draw your own conclusions .
They’ve canceled themselves before the insane leftist mob does. It’s hilarious.
Pepsi and Coke are the same company. 26 weeks you get the end cap. Other 26 weeks are mine.
This isn't the whole story. If you watch the Super Bowl you will be browbeaten to take the vaccine. Watching the game on mute. Gotta see if Brady gets number 7...
Muh Clydesdales
"Based"
*clicks article*
"oh"
That’s nice. Cuz I’m not buying any of these assholes shit.
Some of the most memorable super bowl ads were by those three. The SuperBowl will look we even more if it's essence without them
