"Watch the A-Team Online Free"

FoxNews did a story about the A-Team and what they are up to now.

This got me thinking back to one of my old time favorite TV shows, the A-Team. The one thing I do remember about the 80's show is that the violence was very mild, and no one was ever killed! This made it a great show for younger viewers who are looking for a hero.

That same show can be seen online for free at Fancast.com. Just remember, "I ain't gettin' on no plane, FOOL!"

So what will be the Best Super Bowl Ads of 2010?  Some are shocking, some are surprising, some are even a tad bit offensive, but for the most part, long after the game talk is over, talk about the Super Bowl Ads goes on.

Here's a website that shows the best Super Bowl ads for the past 12 yrs!  http://www.superbowl-ads.com/.
