When sitting down for some football on NFL Sunday, I actually do pay attention to the commercials sometimes.

One of the commercials that caught my eye was the Audi 6 “Alien Dad” spot. A dad from the eyes of the kid. Awesome commercial that came out earlier in the summer. Has to be a 2012 candidate for Dad Commercial of the Year…even though that’s not really an award. Maybe we’ll start it..

    Definitely one of my fav ‘Dad’ commercials.

    One of the few standouts this year for sure. If you watched the 2012 Summer Olympics you’d think Dads had no role bringing up their Olympic athlete sons and daughters to meet the challenges of the games.
