Rant: Dick's Sporting Goods baseball commercial

Post by jim »

This is what baseball would look like if everyone was juiced on crack cocaine. Seriously the runner is out if I'm playing 1b on the pickoff because I'd have the glove on him when he jumped 4 feet off the bag after he got up for NO REASON.

I guess they were trying to give us an idea what of what it's like on the ball field with all the hidden signs and communication, the nuances of the game as they say. They failed miserably. Dumb ass commercial is all it is.

Those kids look like they are all jacked up on Mountain Dew.

But honestly, I kind of like it, even if the field looks like it's probably softball-sized instead of a regulation baseball field.

The only way to fix this commercial is to have pitcher Jenny [expletive] Crocker take a line drive to the head ala J.A. Happ. (he's out of the hospital, right?)

Why are they selling baseball like a tampon commercial?

The batter in this commercial is wearing #42. What kind of [expletive] wears #42?
