I called dibs on writing this post before I downloaded the video and watched what I was actually requesting to write about. Once I did I realized a mistake had been made because now I ma stuck writing about a teaser for a trailer. Yes, this is an ad for an ad, which I'm pretty sure brings the world one step closer to the brink of disaster.
As you can see you'll be able to be advertised to about Call of Duty: Black Ops if you watch Monday Night Football this week. There's some stuff blowing up in the video too. However, I suggest checking out our previews (single-player, multiplayer, 3D) for the game as they are far less pointless and don't the numb the brain through banality.

THAT, was not a trailer. That was repackaged footage of shit we've already seen garnishing the announcement of another video featuring content that we haven't seen, but very well could have seen in the time period that it took to tell us about when and where we can go to see it.
Seriously, though...any time you watch a video (on this or any site) there's an ad for something else. Makes me less interested in whatever they're selling.
