We propose the guy be drawn and quartered, in the fourth quarter

I wouldn't say that we missed it when the guy who was supposed to propose marriage to his galpal didn't come through with his Super Bowl XLI ad during the fourth quarter of Sunday's game.
Maybe you missed it. Because it never happened, despite his nationwide press tour to promote the fact he was gonna pull the trigger.
A reporter at MSNBC writes that the guy, JP, contends he was duped by some companies that said they'd put up the $2.6 million for the 30-second spot that was to run.
Now, he says he's put up $1,000 for a 30-second local spot (probably the L.A. market, from all indications) so that he can offer the proposal in an ad that'll air during his girlfriend's favorite show, "Veronica Mars," on Tuesday's show (9-10 p.m., Channel 5). The affiliate (probably KTLA) shot the spot today.

The guy has it all spelled out at his self-serving website. Maybe some colunnist at the L.A. Times will do another column on him. Again.

Let's put it this way: If your girl's favorite show is "Vernoica Mars," and you're still gonna propose, you've got to be a native or Uranus.
