For the third year in a row, the NFL is asking fans to pick the pitch that will become its Super Bowl commercial. Following the success of last year's promotion, NFL players again will be going head-to-head off the field with their pitches for the NFL's Super Bowl XLIII commercial.

The winning pitch will inspire the NFL's commercial that will run during Super Bowl XLIII on Sunday, Feb. 1 on NBC. The player who submits the winning pitch will be featured in the spot.

The pitches will be posted on www.nfl.com/superad and 48 of them will be eligible for voting. The selected pitches will be grouped by division and fans will vote for one of six players from each division during the playoffs voting rounds, between November 20 and December 17. Videos from the NFC will be eligible for voting November 20 – December 3. Videos from the AFC will be eligible for voting December 4 - 17. The remaining videos will be posted on www.nfl.com/superad in the All Videos section.

The "Super Ad: Believe In Now" championship round begins December 18. The contenders will be narrowed down from 48 to eight, with each division represented by one story. Also, one additional video will be included in the championship round as the wildcard. Fans will vote for their favorite out of the nine finalists over an 18-day period.

The winning pitch will be determined by fan vote and a panel of judges, consisting of various members of the extended NFL family in areas such as marketing, advertising and media. The championship round voting period will run from 12/18/08 – 1/4/09.

Joe Pytka, filmmaker and award-winning director of numerous television commercials, including last year's critically acclaimed NFL spot featuring Ephraim Salaam and Chester Pitts of the Houston Texans, will direct the commercial made from the winning pitch in collaboration with the NFL, NFL Films and BBDO.

I do note that Usama Young with the Saints is still in the running for this as well, but I like Jake's story much better.

Actually, the caption at the bottom says that the order they are shown in is not indicative of their current rankings. That isn't stopping me from voting over and over. I have voted about 100 times so far. I'm at work today doing nothing, but have to be here anyway. Hopefully if Jake wins, he will thank me by sending me Super Bowl tickets to watch him beat the Titans.

Well, it's up to my Packers to pull their head out of their arses and beat Detroit tomorrow or end up being the joke of the season. Nobody wants to be the team that lost to this team, but the way our season has gone it would not surprise me to see us lose. Gosh I miss the 90's. Geaux Packers!

Jake had fallen off the leader board late last night I see he is back on.

We just have to make sure he gets to the next round.
