Has anyone noticed the National Football League is using a MORRISSEY SONG in its recent commercials?

I haven't found the commercial online, but I was a bit gobsmacked when I heard the strains of Everyday is like Sunday coming from a testosterone-fueled plug for the league.

Makes me think they didn't really listen to the rest of the lyrics.



Still, the awesomeness of the NFL going emo is utterly magnificent...

Oh, wait. Someone else noticed!

Here's the commercial.



Oh, internets. Is there nothing you can't do?

Come Armageddon, come.
