This quote startled me:

“The commercial is the talk of not only the state, but the entire nation,” Granholm said.$@# “It shows how much high school sports can mean to a town, no matter what the size or location.$@# It also shows that no matter how small your town, school spirit is irrepressible, and it touches residents both in Watersmeet Township and across the state.”

I know that supporting sports is good, but to commercialize and exploit them like this is sad. What learning are they missing by going to Jay Leno and filming a commercial?
It's good to know that we'll have lots of great sports stars in the future, but we are running low on engineers, scientists, and teachers.
