If you have watched a Super Bowl anytime in the past few years, you know that some of the most memorable ads from those games came from GoDaddy.com. Example (an uncensored version):
Once again GoDaddy has put together a commercial sure to be remembered, except for one problem. The NFL Fox won't allow it to air.
The ad featured auto racer and Go Daddy spokeswoman Danica Patrick and an animated version of the dam-building mammal, Parsons said this week in his blog. He declined to reveal the story line Wednesday, but said Fox rejected the ad because an actor used the word "beaver" three times in the ad. The term is also slang for part of a woman's anatomy.
Thanks for the tip on what the word means, story author Jane Larson! I was wondering!
GoDaddy.com CEO Bob Parsons said Fox would have approved the ad if it used a term such as "furry friend" or "little engineer that specializes in building small dams."
Why GoDaddy would say those things when they are referring to trim I have no idea.

Fox honchos do not like beaver

I'm with Fox on this one. Besides, the beaver has absolutely nothing to do with what GoDaddy sells, so it's a bad ad.
Now, if she was driving her race car around the Internet, snatching up domains and stuffing them into her box while talking about how good the brand is to her pet pussy cat, who she strokes with her hand when she's not using her stick shift?
That would be a good ad, and on brand for everyone! (We could also name the cat Pulsating and Lubricated Vagina.)
This is the first time I've looked at Danica Patrick and actually thought she was hot.
