Tebow shuffle, part trois

It has been argued around these parts that anyone who objects to the notion of CBS abandoning its long-standing policy concerning "advocacy" ads -- just so that James Dobson and the god-bothering Tebow clan can drop some anti-choice propaganda into the Super Bowl broadcast -- should just get together and buy some ad time of their own.
Except that, well, you know, there's those pesky policies again. Yeah, it's about money now, and I'm the Tsar of all the Russias.
The difference? Well, they're all advocacy ads. However, only one of them had a week in which someone loosely affiliated with what is being advocated was was convicted of murder.

“Still too early, but I share the concern. Would love to see the eventual second unit guys – Baby, Jeff Green, Arroyo, West and probably Kristic – get to play together. Rondo looks exhausted and it would be helpful if Doc could cut back his minutes.
Also, I strongly suspect there were concerns that Perk was not the same player anymore.”

“Packer was serious about hoops. I knew it was a big game when Musberger/Nantz would call a game with Packer. He was old school so he took delight in fundamentals such as a pick/roll or boxing out a rebounder. I'm still a young kid, but I enjoyed his analysis.”
