GoDaddy builds hype for Super Bowl ad

After having its 2005 ad yanked in mid-Bowl by FCC-fearing Fox executives, internet domain registrar GoDaddy is gleefully promoting (though not releasing) its 2006 ad. GoDaddy chief Bob Parsons is warning anyone who's interested that the commercial might not be approved by ABC censors. Considering how delighted he was with the results of the 2005 controversy, I think we can count on the 2006 version being scandalicious. Previous GoDaddy TV and extended Web ads, including the 2005 cuts, can be viewed here.

The "web only" ad was specifically about NOT showing boob on TV. That's scandalous?
