Tell us which search results you prefer for professional football’s biggest day.
The other day we checked out what search engines did the best job of relaying timely information on Oscar nominations. Now, we’re taking a look at how the search engines are handling the Superbowl. We’re also comparing them to social media sites for good measure and fun times.

Team Manning and Team Brees, eat your hearts out. It’s Team Romo that won the search bowl – at least on Bing.
That’s right, the Dallas Cowboys were the most searched NFL team on Bing this season. They beat out both teams that will play in the Superbowl this coming Sunday – the Indianapolis Colts and the New Orleans Saints. If you’re wondering why I keep writing Colts before Saints (I know you’re not but humor me) – it’s because this Sunday I’m a Colts fan. (Hey, the Panthers and the Giants didn’t make it, ok?)
It is Superbowl time again soon (go Jets) and in what seems to be the viral marketing method of GoDaddy, their ads are under attack again, this time before being screened.
Morality in Media, an interfaith organization “battles pornography and other forms of what it considers obscenity in the media,” according to Wikipedia.
MiM President Robert Peters was quoted from the Christian Newswire:
“It is no secret that GoDaddy.com loves to ‘push the envelope’ when it comes to the content of its ads; and it would appear that this year’s Super Bowl ads may push as close to the indecency line as CBS Network ‘censors’ will allow, which could be as close as CBS thinks it can get away with.
