ads are OK
I got no beef with ads, when tastefully and artfully done they are enjoyable and advise me of goods and services that are available.
Unfortunately, not all advertisers subscribe to this school of thought, and can make a mess of a good thing.
If I were in charge of making rules (which luckily I am not) I'd say:
1) No advertising in the natural world, that means no highway billboards, no skywriting, no space-based signage, no banner-towing etc. There is a place for advertising and it isn't on the face of nature.
2) No advertising that intrudes into one's private space, no blaring from mobile public address systems, no door-to-door sales, no telemarketing.
Can't think of any others right now. I think the wheel ads are fine. Sports are traditionally high-advertising events, which in part supports the cost of hosting the event. TV ads or radio ads are fine as these media are easily avoided.
