CONTROVERSY

Parsons has had a hand in several controversies. During Super Bowl XXXIX , Go Daddy aired a commercial depicting an attractive and scantily-clad woman experiencing a "wardrobe malfunction", making light of the previous year's Controversy . The ad was scheduled to run twice, but the second airing was pulled by FOX upon complaints by NFL officials. Go Daddy reached a settlement with Fox soon thereafter.

In June 2005 , Parsons posted in his Blog that he condoned the controversial treatment of prisoners at Guantanamo Bay .
