    ..."Wanna play rock and roll tennis?"
    
    Coolest commercial I've seen in a long time.  I'm not a big Andre
    Agassi fan, but the Red Hot Chilli Peppers really jam in that one.

I like the two Coors commercials where they show the guys
playing rugby.....

    Extended Super Dave with laugh-track is a real loser...
    
    glenn

    I don't even know what they advertise for, but I get a kick out of
    those Super Dave commercials.  The announcer kills me!
    
    Dan

 While the jammin on the rock & roll tennis commercial is cool I could do 
 without the two bozos in the chair and Agassi...

 I like the Mr. Robinson with the classical pianst. especially when he 
 calls the foul on him. I think they must have brought Dean Smith in for
 consulatation to show the guy how to play D....

 my favorite Robinson one though is on rebounding...

Funny this should come up.

I was talking to my wife lasted night, and we got talking about
effective commercials (we are just wild in the streets sometimes, ya
know). Anyway, she said the Bo Jackson commercials were great. I said,
no, they were amusing, but not good advertisements. She said yes they
were. I said, what is he advertising. She said shoes. I said what kind
of shoes. She didn't know. So I said...  Exactly!... NOT effective 
commercials.

I see quite a few commercial like that (it's Nike, by  the way). I like
looking at the half naked women, or there's something amusing about the
commercial, but I don't notice what the hell is being advertised.

    Worst have to be Chris Berman for Bud Bowl 3...
    
    Best has to be Spike and Michael...

    
    	The David Robinson commercials are excellent.	
    	
    	Spike and Mike are good too.
    
    						 glen j.

    The new Bo Jackson commercial....the one where he says Bo knows
    Geography, etc., etc.,....because Bo stayed in school.
    
    And for a local commercial, the "I like Mike" commercials for
    Channel 5 sports.

    I think the Bud Bowl crap is getting out of hand.  If I have to watch
    "Bud Bowl" commercials every Sunday during the games, at one point or
    another I know it'll be too much and I'll just PUKE!!!!
    
    The first year there was a novelty to it, then last year it was more or
    less SSDD, this year it's just SH!T!!!!!!
    
    Boycott Bud!!!!!
    
    Make Andhowsyour Bush get something new!!!!

bozos?  Them is the Red Hot Chili Peppers... gotta love that bass players's
stuffed animal head trousers...

I like the "I Like Mike" commercials, too.
    

 Karen just because they be the red hot chilli peppers doesn't mean they
 can't be bozos. There are quite a few musicians that I like their music
 but would spit on their personality....

 as your buddy would say "I would touch them with a 39 1/2 foot pole"

    >	-< Some of the Miller Lite ads are decent... >-
    
    Yeah, my favorite was the one where the "Taste Greats" were bowling the
    "Less Fillings", and one of the teams needed just one pin to win. 
    Rodney Dangerfield steps up, throws one that hits the 1-3 pocket...and
    bounces into the gutter without knocking anything down!
    
    
    py

    I used to like the John Madden smashing through a huge sheet of paper
    Miller Lite commercial.  Actually, most of the Miller Lite commercial
    were and still are good.....
    
    Hawk

    
    Well I like the Red Hot Chili Pepper's, it's Andre " give me a mirror,
    are my short's on tight enough" Agassi that I can't stomach. "Image is 
    everything" what a great role model for kids. 
    
    
    
    Steve

    About three years ago some friends dragged me out to this little hole
    of a nightclub here in Charlotte to see this band called the Red Hot
    Chilli Peppers.  They were nothing more than noise making surf punks
    running around in their underwear.  I wasn't impressed.
    
    But since then they've become better musicians and somewhere along the
    line developed this arrogant/cool personality.  
    
    In that commercial when the lead singer looks down and delivers that
    line "Wanna play rock and roll tennis" I get totally absorbed into
    that challenge.  I mean the two things have nothing to do with each
    other yet the commercial is extremly effective...to prove this, I even
    tollerate Agassi throught the whole thing.
    
    And I laugh like hell when Flea mugs at the camera and says:
    "gloasolpkuphewgleshzh."
    
    Different strokes for different folks.

    Miller Lite and Man's best friend.......Baaad Doggie!!
    
    Classic!

    
    	Great topic dan'l!
    
    	This wasn't a commercial but it got me to gigglin'.  I was
    	watching ESPN and they showed a film clip of Larry "Gawd"
    	Bird at the free throw line crackin' up.  He was shooting
    	a technical and these three fans at courtside were holding
    	up these *large* posters of scantilly clad girls.  Concentrate
    	now Larry......concentrate.........

It's tradition now!!!!  From one of the best Christmas shows.....
    
You're a mean one, Mr. Grinch
You really are a heel
You're as cuddly as a cactus
You're as charming as an eel, Mr. Grinch

You're a bad banana, with a greasy black peel

You're a monster, Mr. Grinch
Your heart's an empty hole
Your brain is full of spiders
You've got garlic in your soul, Mr. Grinch

I wouldn't touch you with a 39 1/2 foot pole

You're a foul one, Mr. Grinch
You're a nasty wasty skunk
Your heart is full of unwashed socks
Your soul is full of gunk, Mr. Grinch

The three words that best describe you are as follows 
and I quote "Stink, Stank, Stunk!"

Thanks Karen I can never remember all the words....

 the dog's name is MAX....

 I love when he puts the antlers on him and he tips over till he shaves some 
 off. I also laugh my head off at the site of him pulling the sleight after
 it's all full.........

 mike

re the last two:

	Superb Christmas special!  Ranks right up there with Charlie
	Brown and his little tree...

re Air Major:

	That is one wicked cool commercial.  I love the aerials that
	the dog does, but I love the other scenery even more.

	If you wanna find hot babes, go to the park with either
	a puppy, a bitchin' cool dog, or a baby....

re Commericals

	Another favorite is the Nike commericial with P. Welch (forget
	her first name).

	Anyway, she won the New York Marathon a few years back.
	She's out running and she says "three years ago I smoked two
	packs of cigarettes a day and couldn't have walked this hill,
	let alone run it....  Last year I won the NY Marathon..."
	Then it cuts to black with the Just Do It slogan....

	I may have the words wrong, but it's a great commercial....

 Thanks Dan, I like em' even less now...

 ;^)

    
    And their favorite tennis player is Andre Agassi.  Proof that they go
    for style over substance.  8^)

    They're probably Dead fans too!

    And you gotta like that Mothers Milk album cover...the x-rated version
    that is.
    
    And about those SI phones.  I mean, come on.  These jerks are standing
    in front of a wall of shoes and one of the shoes starts ringing.  Gee,
    maybe it's the plastic one with the cord there, fella.  And then they
    act surprised it's a phone.  What did you think it would be, a ringing
    vibrator?
    
    	--dan'l

    I'm surprised that no one's pounced on those jerky "Cotton Dockers"
    commercials.  Has anyone ever pictured themselves as actually being
    there with those jerks?  Gawd!  And what's worse, is that there really
    are jerks out there exactly like these guys!  And they probably even
    got wives and/or girlfriends!  Yuck!
    
    Now this is style over substance, for sure.......
    
    Hawk

    
    OH I HATE THOSE F^&$#&^$&* DOCKER COMMERCIAL'S. I just want to 
    jump into the tv and beat those dweebs over the head with a 
    golf club! AAAARRRRGGGGGHHHHHHH!! /Don will back me on this one!
    WHAT A BUNCH OF DWEEBS!
    
    
    
    Steve

And if they have wives and girlfriends, that probably means that
they are capapble of reproduction.

Boy, talk about messing up the gene pool!

    /don loves them!

    I can see it now,  The /don Pummel the dork in Dockers video.
    
    
    
    JaKe
    

    Now I'm sure.
    
    The Docker's ads are really aimed at professional women.  Those guys
    are behaving just the way yuppie-type women hope their men act when
    they aren't around.
    
    Personally, I prefer the Bugle Boy's ad - the one where all his clothes
    got hidden while he was in the shower.  Definite possibilities in that
    one.
    
    Most of the Mr. Robinson's neighborhood ads are pretty good, but I
    intensely *dislike* the one with the concert pianist.  Feels too much
    like taunting the guy and making him out to be a jerk to me.
    
    And the "Bo knows all this stuff 'cause he stayed in school" spot is
    superb.

Amen, Hawkster...  those Docker ads are the pits.

They're such dorks it makes my skin crawl.

I've informed big Suze, the Canadian Minx, et al to never even THINK
about getting me Dockers

Mike JN

    I thought I seen Lufay in one of 'dem Dockers commercials.
    
    What about the Earl Campbell Skoal commercial? "Jus a pin bi-twin mah
    chik-n-gom n ah git ril 'baco fla-vah, wifout lah'tin up."

    How many people wishes Saw gets a girlfriend????? This guy lusts after
    every women on TV....
    
    I like the Bo comms... I like the Channel 25 Celtics comms..
    I like the Kevin Mchale Comms...
    
    REK

    I like the Bugle Boy ads and wish someone would do that for me.  On the
    other hand, if a certain class of women expects its men to act like the
    guys in the Dockers commercial, then that's one group of women I want
    nothing to do with.
    
    John

 Heard a good one on the radio last night by Bud Dry and there why ask
 why theme. Question was why can't man show emotion around women? Can't
 remember all the lines but there were some good ones..

 "Oh yeah honey nice sunset" guy basically non-caring
 " Nice negligee honey, but please move you're blocking the screen"

 and when on to say why can men show so much emtion around other men..

 "Oh look at that 68 vette God I'm in love" "Hold me"...

  mike
  

    As my roommate said, find a woman that looked like that and wanted to
    do something like that after 10 years of marriage, and you'd be set
    for life...
    
    I like the Bud Dry one with the women saying "How come you don't
    do X, Y and Z?  Chad (or whatever his name is) does it..."  At
    the end the guy says "Why don't guys feel pain and cry? Chad does
    it..." or something like that after the guy and Chad have a "talk"...

    Re: -1
    
    those women exists too!

While this doesn't really pertain to a sport commercial, I saw one
last night that really made me gag.

I HATE this *&^&$!!! trend in advertising to appeal to the crowd who
watches "Thirty Something".  They had this commercial on for Gallo
Wine last night where this dweeb and his ever dweebier wife were
entertaining a bunch of tweed and Dockers wearing friends.  He was
cooking salmon.  

I watched the commercial, all the while wishing I could have been there,
in the room with them, softly caressing the cool metal of a fully
locked and loaded Uzi, just waiting for the right moment to eradicate
these affronts to the human race before they could reproduce, thus
causing irrepairable damamge to the gene pool!


arghhhh!!!!!

    Walt, the guy's name is Evan. "How come you don't cry?"
    "Evan does." Good commercial!
    
    
    
    Steve

 Yeah that's a good one Walt...

 Round one starts tonight Walt. Can't believe we're 5 1/2 point favs....

 I could see two points....

 I guess it has to with the fact that they've only lost won at home and won
 all the others by double digits (except Denver). Scary game friday nite is
 a docker's crowd nite for sure...hopefully they'll get tanked early so they
 make some noise...
