Betty White, 97, Is Seriously Not Messing Around in New NFL Promo Video

Good morning to national treasure Betty White, and Betty White only.

The 97-year-old former Golden Girls star—or should we call her, "B-Dog"—is the new face of the NFL...sorta. She stars in the league's new promo just ahead of football season, and we can't get enough.

The NFL celebrates 100 years of football this season. Remember the epic Super Bowl commercial in preparation for the monumental milestone? White's ad, while much shorter, is right on par with the league's big marketing push for their centennial anniversary.

The ad starts out with NFL commentator Al Michaels speaking at a podium, saying he thinks it's impossible to sum up the past 100 years of football. B-Dog, though, offers her take on the past century of pigskin, leading up to the big kickoff on Thursday, September 5 between the Green Bay Packers and the Chicago Bears.

"There's only thing more badass than this year's kickoff," White says. "And you're looking at her." Mic. Drop.

We'd expect nothing less from the lady who was tackled on a football field for the 2010 Snickers Super Bowl commercial.
