Watch Super Bowl commercials on your cellphone, computer or TV

If you need to take a
break during the best part of the Super Bowl --
and, of course, we're talking about those multimillion dollar commercials -- don't worry. The NFL will be
rebroadcasting all of the game's commercials next Monday and Tuesday, via the web, the football league's cable channel
and Sprint's cellphone network. So there you go; you now have no excuse to miss this year's GoDaddy (or
"1984") moment. Miss a key play or a halftime "wardrobe malfunction," on the other hand, and you're
on your own.
Great! I get to spend money (cell usage) to watch a commercial designed to make me to spend more money. How can I lose??
No more wardrobe malfunctions as it's now broadcast with a time-delay.
In fact, aren't all live shows now required to have a time-delay?

But if you can just watch the superbowl commercials, who will actually watch the game? Maybe they should embed a little football game in the corner of the commercials.
This is cool (web viewing, not phone) because some years I can remember the commercials being stripped and replaced with Canadian versions, which sucked.
The ONLY commercials I may ever WANT to watch are during SuperBowl. But you think I WANT to watch commercials (EVER) on my cell phone? BAH!
Great - you can't have bluetooth enabled on your cellphone, but you can have all the commercials you want. Someone needs to break up the wireless monopolies.
