Quite a few readers pointed out to us that BlackBerry’s “What BlackBerry 10 Can’t Do” Super Bowl commercial is getting top billing on NFL.com. They have a voting system on the NFL website with hundreds of thousands of viewers participating. When I first checked it out the BlackBerry commercial was ranked #1 but now it is neck in neck with Coca-Cola for top billing. Right now Coca-Cola is winning by a few votes but it keeps switching back and forth. That is even more impressive since it seems to have about 50,000 less views than its competition.
Check out the rankings for yourself at NFL.com and make sure to vote for the BlackBerry commercial. If you want an interesting take on the commercial I recommend checking out Marc’s interpretation.

Blackberry’s on a roll. I hope they resolve the watered down BB 10 bridge issue to continue their march back to the top.

I’m still wondering what happened to the site shortly after the game. The video was trending at #1, then they pulled it completely from the site before anyone got around to compiling their top-commercials articles. (so it made its way into none of those). Now, its back on the site. What gives?

Yeah I am not sure. I also noticed that.
