Sports: A Game Of Inches

We are four humble men who love sports, but hate sports commentary. Peter Gammons is our hero and John Madden is our enemy. If you were to ask us our purpose, our answer would be simple: "We are forever locked in Mortal Kombat for the souls of sports fans everywhere. Statistics are our science and 'the immeasurable character of men' is the obsolete religion of blind faith. Our job is to prove that God doesn't exist and that athletes are merely cold, metal machines with no hearts or souls."

Obligatory SB Commercial Review

I think it's a constitutional amendment that everyone must share their opinion on the SB commercials. It's right there with Don't ask don't tell. So here is my abbreviated list of what I liked and what activated my gag relfex.

Like:

Beaver playing the violin (monster.com)
The Simpsons (coca-cola)
Milkaholic babies (E-Trade)

-Google was a close one but I saw it beforehand on-line.

Gag reflex:

Mark Sanchez "You're important to me, especially if you watch football" (Female heart health, CBS)
Tim Tebow with his mom (FocusOnTheFamily.com aka AbortionsAreEvil.com)
Lebron and Dwight stupid, unrealistic dunk off (McDonalds)

Cubsfan4evr said...: Everyone is so down on the commercials this year. I missed half of the game because I was traveling, but from the ones I have seen on the internet later, they do seem not that good. The only one I really like is the one with Lettermen and Leno.; February 10, 2010 at 8:23 AM
