Tom Brady is great in ads

We really didn't want to like this Super Bowl LVIII ad for BetMGM featuring Tom Brady, but we really do like it a lot.

Maybe it's because Tom Brady is so devastatingly handsome that we are somehow compulsively drawn to the notion of this online sports betting platform. Or perhaps it's the relaxed, we-don't-really-care humour of the ad which also features Vince Vaughn that ensures that the brand BetMGM, BetMGM, BetMGM is now on a rinse-and-repeat cycle in our heads.

It seems obvious, but if you're going to pitch a betting platform to football fans with audacious promises of winning big, then who better to be a spokesperson in the ad that the best, all-time Super Bowl GOAT...Tom Brady.

Tom has not only won 6 7 Super Bowl rings, but at the age of 46 (think he's now 46) he's still in the Super Bowl.

Considering the context - this is indeed a great ad.
