If you'd rather- AFN can not air the superbowl at all. How much do you think Fox paid for the Superbowl this year? Judging from charging $3M per ad- it was probably a pretty penny. How much did AFN pay? Nothing. End of story. Major league sports, and big networks, movie channels etc etc give their programming to AFN at little to no cost on the stipulation that AFN does NOT air commercials because therefore AFN would be making a profit and not paying for programming that other networks have to pay for. I know it sucks- but geez, get a new complaint- or just DON'T WATCH! The same argument every year. If you’d rather- AFN can not air the superbowl at all.

Worst set of commercials to date. Can't remember any of them as being worthy of a $3M pricetag. They didn’t miss a thing. Worst set of commercials to date.
