That Letterman and Leno commercial

In case you missed it, here's Letterman's commercial for the Super Bowl:
And yes, it was all Dave's idea. The best way to sneak Leno and Oprah into the Ed Sullivan Theatre (Letterman's place) was to do it during a taping of Dave's show this past Tuesday. Leno wore a hoodie and a cheesy mustache to sneak in unnoticed. Or was that Oprah who wore the mustache? Anyway, this was the most memorable Super Bowl moment for me outside of Manning getting intercepted.

Yea, I was very surprised by this spot. I knew that these two guys used to be friendly, but I had thought that they couldn't stand each other for the past several years, especially due to the blowup concerning Conan.

Perfessor, it's business. All three of them are in the business of entertainment, and there was nothing more valuable than showing you have the power in the entertainment business. That was Dave, all Dave. You THINK that Pres Bush and Osama bin Laden can't stand each other, but I'd wager they'd sit down with Oprah...
