I'm willing to bet Fox is dying because these 2 teams are in

This is a silly argument. Its like saying that New Years will be celebrated by less people because its not being televised from Times Square. The Super Bowl is an event, like a holiday now. EVERYONE watches it, no matter who is playing. Its not like other sporting events. Alot of people just watch it FOR THE COMMERCIALS! I seriously doubt that Apple pulled their spot because of who was playing. You could make the counter argument that in a poor game, the commercials may get the most attention!(though I doubt that this will be a poor game).

I live in L.A. We haven't even HAD a pro football team for several years, and I doubt that the Super Bowl ratings have suffered for it. I'm not a huge pro football fan, but I'm watching it. And if Apple had a commercial in it, I would be anticipating that too.
