"And yet another commercial enters the fray: Behold the banned GoDaddy ad, a spot featuring a retired football player named \"Lola\" who embarks on a successful career as a lingerie designer.First Tebow, then ManCrunch, now GoDaddy. Granted, the web hosting company is no stranger to banishment \u2014 a 2005 ad featuring the GoDaddy girl bouncing about whilst falling out her shirt met the same fate \u2014 but this time around reps are truly baffled that CBS put the kibosh on the spot.\n\u201COf the five commercial concepts we submitted for approval this year, this NEVER would\u2019ve been my pick for the one that would not be approved,\u201D GoDaddy CEO and Founder Bob Parsons said in a release. \u201CThis is about a guy who starts an online business and hits the jackpot. I just don\u2019t think 'Lola' is offensive, in fact we didn\u2019t see this one coming \u2014 we were absolutely blindsided!\u201D\n\"Lola is a big, flamboyant, effeminate, lovable man,\u201D Parsons added. Daily Finance talked to GoDaddy Chief Marketing Officer Barb Rechterman, who said: \"CBS gave us some language that basically said, 'This ad has the potential to offend viewers.'\" Apparently CBS didn't say exactly what about the spot was offensive.\nAccording to Parsons, GoDaddy will still air a commercial during the big game, and will continue to promote \"Lola\" online. Judging by the controversy that continues to surround potential and nixed Super Bowl ads, this year's line-up of commercial breaks could be more hotly anticipated than the game itself.\nCheck out the \"Lola\" ad below and let us know what you think. To ban or not to ban? That is the question.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
