If you’re a betting man, put your money on the San Francisco 49ers to win Super Bowl XLVII.
What does TruthinAdvertising.org (TINA.org) know that ESPN doesn’t? Well, after an extensive review of ads featuring members of each team, we determined that San Francisco’s star linebacker, Patrick Willis, has some of the most inspirational and humorous commercials of all of this year’s Super Bowl players.
Wish we could say the same for Raven’s linebacker, Courtney Upshaw, who stars in a deceptive ad. Don’t believe us? Take a look for yourself.
Having now viewed the ads, you may be of the opinion that Upshaw’s car flip makes Willis’ golf cart flip look like Willis needs a few more Duracells inside him. After all, Willis needed help shoving the golf cart over just once while Upshaw single handedly flips a car multiple times.
But the fact of the matter is that Upshaw’s car flip is a fake. According to the Raven’s linebacker, “It’s a little movie magic, man. You know how they do that. They just made me look good.” According to TINA.org, that “magic” will cost you the game.
