It's the day after the Super Bowl and what are people talking about?

Sure, some are talking about the Super Bowl trophy heading back to Green Bay, but outside of a few "that was a great game," comments, it's the commercials that are the big talkers. And of course, Christina Aguilera's botching of the "National Anthem."

There are a few fun ways to make this a local story.

• Reach out to an advertising or marketing professor or ad agency and get their expert opinion on the best and worst commercials of the day.

• Consider talking to a business expert about the cost that companies pay for Super Bowl commercials. While there's no bigger audience, is the payout there for companies that spend the millions? What kind of planning do they think goes into a Super Bowl commercial?

• Ask readers to vote in a poll about their favorite commercial. List the Top 5 best ones from Sunday night.
