    Every time I see a 2 minute warning break I think back to the Alcoa Fantastic Finishes I saw as a kid.</p>

    I found one on youtube, although this one can't be embedded. It even has the cheesy Alcoa comercial at the end.</p>

    I remember them. There was an Alcoa plant about 4 miles from where I grew up.</p>

    Come to think of it, they were kinda cheesy ads.</p>

    I vaguely remember then now that you brought it up.</p>

    I also recall Howard Cosell speaking of sports. What I'd give to have him to do the halftime highlights on MNF instead of Berman.</p>
