Did The Best Part of The Super Bowl Occur Afterwards When Gisele Said "My Husband Can't ****ing Throw And Catch The Ball Himself?"...yes

One thirty-second commercial time slot during the Super Bowl costs roughly 3 million dollars--here are the 8 brands that have wasted the most amount of money (according to economists):

E*Trade (2002-2011): $35.9 million
Ford (2002-2011): $36.6 million
Warner Bros. (2002-2011): $48.6 million
Coca-Cola (2002-2011): $61 million
Yum! Brands (2002-2011): $67.8 billion
General Motors (2002-2011): $135.2 million
PepsiCo (2002-2011): $209.7 million
Anheuser-Busch InBev (2002-2011): $246.2 million

Grand Total of Wasted Money: $841 million

Here are 8 ways these companies could have better used their money, specifically in ways that could benefit trees like Barney:

-Plant more trees
-Buy an acre, or more, of rain forest
-Buy a plot of forest and make it a National Park (ex. The General Motors Round Lake National Park)
-Sponsor an existing National Park (ex. Yellow Stone National Park Presented by Coca-Cola)
-Donate a lot of money to the Sierra Club
-Actually recycle????
-Start a nonprofit organization called "Life Starts At Germination" and picket logging companies
-Fund a movie where Liam Neeson's favorite tree is cut down and he mercilessly kills a bunch of people with a chainsaw as retribution
