The tagline at the end reads, "Studies show vegetarians have better sex. Go veg."
A PETA spokeswoman said the animal rights group received an e-mail from NBC saying the ad "depicts a level of sexuality exceeding our standards." PETA said NBC asked it to edit some of the sexy scenes out of the ad but the organization refused.

(Jan. 28) - NBC has deemed a PETA commercial featuring lingerie-clad models demonstrating their fondness for veggies too sexy for the Super Bowl, the animal rights group said.
The spot, titled 'Veggie Love,' shows the beauties relishing their passion for produce in a series of steamy scenes. One suggestively rubs asparagus down her bare torso, another lovingly caresses a spear of broccoli, while a third enjoys a vegetable bubble bath.

I understand that Hef has canceled his Super Bowl party as well. Perhaps televised brutality based war games aren't the place for sex.
Remember the outcry over the nipple slip a few years back? Since then the halftime show has been handed over to wrinkle rockers and everybody seems a lot more comfortable.
No kidding. He'f canceled the Heifer XLIII Roundup. Interesting, yes... and he is all about tradition, at least in the wrinkle department, these days.
Lots of surprises... this PETA thing is kind of like a team of vegetables against a team of large big dumb animals... winner gets the brass ring.
Tonight at the concert EW Bridwell asked the audience if "anyone knew the names of the teams in this year's SuperBowl..." ? Then he explained his grandson's explanation... "Hamas thirteen, Hebrews thirty..."
I made that up... but we group could not name the teams... the joke is on me. Sex has finally been suppressed to depths where only transparent phosphorous animals can dwell in enormous pressures; Sort of like a Greenwich Village Strip Joint... near Ground Zero.
And teams have become generic bundles of I don't Know What.
Hmmmm... play the SuperBowl in the crater at Ground Zero. I know you agree a change in venue is required... or this World Champion Ideal for institutional commercialism will die with everything else.
I am truly sorry to have this feeling of dread for all wrinkle rockers... but they should also seriously consider retirement to a reclusive site, if they cannot play jazz, before playing to the Theater n the Round at SuperBowls.
I know someday I might have to say something nice about my generation of rockers, but JeeeeZ, that Jagger trotting Rolling Stone thing a few back... what in the world was that?
Apparently, Hef isn't recession proof. Along those lines, where does PETA get the cash to enter in to the advertising ultimate fighting championship at the same time that the truly big time players are pulling out?:ask any vegetable I guess.
Change of venue-should be played at Green Bay every year.
I felt a little bad about all the wrinkle rock stuff when I read Posnanski's piece

That being said, and maybe it's my own perception but, these guys seem to carry around sacks full of pretentiousness. Like they are trying to make up for something they ain't got any more. Never got that from Mudd you know?
The Mick thing...I watched that with a roomful that was half used, spent small businessmen and half menopausal women. The guys all hated it, the gals all loved it. Don't know exactly what that testifies to. I asked a few people later; Lou (producer TAO) dug it, Ryan (stepson guitar slinger) thought it was the dumbest shit he ever saw.
Uncle Fred used to say "there's an ass for every seat". He sold used cars for 50 years and the logic applies to much of the status quo.
I just thought of a baking up of Uncle Fred's adage... "an ass for every Jesus."
No?
