Well the Super Bowl is over and congratulations to the New Orleans Saints. I guess they will be done celebrating around July 4th and cleaned up in time for Christmas.
The Super Bowl commercials did not disapoint and here are my top 10 favorites.
10. The Doritos at the funeral
9. Bud Light astronomers
8. Budweiser human bridge
7. VW punchbuggy game
6. Bridgestone killer whale
5. Snickers with Betty White and Abe Vigoda
4. NCIS head-slap montage
3. Emerald/Pop Secret awesome + awesome = AWESOMER
2 E trade milkaholic
And the number one commercial goes to
1. Doritos dog shock collar!
Honorable mention to the "Bud Light house", "Bud Light "Lost" spoof", "Leno/Oprah/Letterman", "E trade on a plane", "Google life", "Bridgestone your tires or your wife" and "Coca-Cola and the Simpsons".
Of course they weren't all good. Those Denny's commercials were annoying. Charles Barkley Taco Bell and Brett Favre Hyundai were just dumb. And Career Builder casual Fridays and Dockers without pants were just disturbing.

Woody's Movie Review 38
Here we go with a new batch of movies from the big and small screen.
First we have "Skinwalkers". This is a werewolf movie that takes place in the modern era. It seems a young boy has the power to turn werewolves back into humans permanently. Well that doesn't sit well with the blood thirsty crowd and they try to kill him ASAP. On his side though is a group of werewolves who are tired of buying so many razors. Massive fights ensue and lots of people and werewolves buy the farm. 3 penguins.
Next we have "District 9". District 9 is a movie about aliens settling in South Africa. Most don't want them there so they are going to be evicted and sent to District 10. Tragedy strikes during the evictions and the movie gets weirder from there. 2 penguins.
Then there was "A Perfect Getaway starring Steve Zahn and Milla Jovovich. These two play a couple on their honeymoon in Hawaii. Too bad they picked the week when there are 2 serial killers taking out newlyweds. It twists and turns and is really good. Although the one line in the movie did make me chuckle. One character says something like "Don't worry nothing bad ever happens in Hawaii. Did they forget a little thing like Pearl Harbor!!! The movie gets 4 penguins.
Finally is "UP" the animated tale of a a man flying his house to South America. The movie starts out sad but does get better. The squirrel joke is fantastic. 5 penguins.

Final YPEL Report
Well the season is over. It was filled with highs and lows and of course creamy middles.
Since we have been experiencing computer problems here at the YPEL a quick update.
As we know Sweet Chlorine, the Mama Pigs and GTT all have forfeited their final picks.
In the last 2 weeks of the playoffs:
The Ambush went 3-1 & 2-0;
All Ahead Full went 3-1 & 2-0;
And the Highlanders went 2-2 & 0-2.
So with much fan fare here are the final results (ohhh I'm all goose-pimply).
In 6th place was the Golden Trailer Trash with 115-151;
In 5th place was the Mama Pigs at 138-128;
In 4th place was Sweet Chlorine at 164-102;
In 2nd place (tie) was All Ahead Full at 176-90;
In 2nd place (tie) was the Highlanders at 176-90;
And...(insert trumpet sound and confetti dropping here)
In 1st place was the Ambush at 181-85!
Congratulations to all the teams and a well deserved rest.
It should be noted that three teams set season highs for wins the Ambush at 181 (+9), the Highlanders at 176 (+5) and Sweet Chlorine at 164 (+6).
