Because it shows restricted NFL footage of the Super Bowl. I bet you it cost them a pretty penny just for Conan to SAY the words 'Super' and 'Bowl', which is copyrighted by the NFL. That's why you hear other commercials/TV shows refer to it as the "BIG GAME" or some reasonable facsimile.

Seriously? They have to talk in code about Super Bowel Extravaganza? That is retarded.

That's some hilarious stuff.

But I just read a newspaper blog story that says the footage is not NFL, but USFL. It's a joke folks.

And the clip is available on Hulu.
