This spot chronicles how a lass envisions how her dream man will propose marriage to her. At first, we see her as a little girl gabbing with friends under a tree about how her future husband will pop the question. That vision changes as she matures–yet each scenario remains wonderfully romantic.
She for instance sees her beau proposing to her on a gondola. Later she pictures being surrounded by butterflies.
Then one day at a restaurant she–now as a grown woman–confides to a couple of girlfriends that Mr. Right is about to ask her the big question.
Sure enough, the next scene has him proposing–at the ballpark with both of them pictured on the big screen scoreboard. A far cry from what she had looked forward to, she still says yes and puckers up–only to find that her husband to be isn’t kissing her but instead yelling in excitement to fellow fans that his girl said yes. He proclaims that this is how he always envisioned making his matrimonial proposal.
A two-sentence super appears which reads: “It’s Not Crazy. It’s Sports.”

Supreme Court Upholds Law Banning TikTok If It’s Not Sold By Chinese Parent Company ByteDance
The Supreme Court on Friday unanimously upheld the federal law banning TikTok beginning Sunday unless it's sold by its China-based parent company, holding that the risk to national security posed by its ties to China overcomes concerns about limiting speech by the app or its 170 million users in the United States. A sale does not appear imminent and, although experts have said the app will not disappear from existing users' phones once the law takes effect on Jan. 19, new users won't be able to download it and updates won't be available. That will eventually render the app unworkable, the Justice Department has said in court filings. The decision came against the backdrop of unusual political agitation by President-elect Donald Trump, who vowed that he could negotiate a solution and the administration of President Joe Biden, which has signaled it won't enforce the law beginning Sunday, his final full day in office. Trump, mindful of TikTok's popularity, and his own 14.7 million followers on the app, finds himself on the opposite side of the argument from prominent Senate Republicans who fault TikTok's Chinese owner for not finding a buyer before now. Trump said in a Truth Social post shortly before the decision was issued that TikTok was among the topics in his conversation Friday with Chinese leader Xi Jinping. It's unclear what options are open to Trump once he is sworn in as president on Monday. The law allowed for a 90-day pause in the restrictions on the app if there had been progress toward a sale before it took effect. Solicitor General Elizabeth Prelogar, who defended the law at the Supreme Court for the Democratic Biden administration, told the justices last week that it's uncertain whether the prospect of a sale once the law is in effect could...
