I have seen other commercials with diversity in the super bowl ad. If anyone can remember the one with the black guy could not get in a bar to get a beer because the sign said (no pets) so he puts the dog on his head to make it look like he has dreadlocks on his head and got in... were people offended by that?? We should be proud that they allow A.S.L in the super bowl ad. From what I remember it is very, very expensive to put an ad in the commercial slot of the super bowl.

Agreed. And the exposure this commercial will recieve during the SuperBowl is huge! There will be many, many people who have never had exposure to ASL or deafness that will see it. That is a good thing.
