The NBA Playoffs have kicked off, and the Spurs are off to a descent start. However, I am in a situation where I can’t justify spending money for satellite or cable television for a couple of reasons; one my TV is 13†and second I don’t watch all that much TV. This leaves me not having access to TNT and their NBA telecasts, until my friend BullMoose hooked my up with his SlingBox feed.
Now that I have the ability to see the Spurs go on to defend their title, and with a little luck repeat I have the unfortunate pleasure of seeing TNT’s barrage of repeat commercials. In 2003 it was commercials for the Hulk movie, 2005 it was for TNT’s series “The Closerâ€, “Into the West†and Coors Light “love train commercial. Seems like they are about to out do even themselves with the number of times they are running the Vince Carter (Vinjury) T-Mobile commercial. I really don’t need to hear him say that his dog is bulimic again.
The other commercial is the three year old McDonalds commercial, where two schmucks are getting a platter of double quarter pounders with cheese ready to serve to their guests as h’ordurves (spelling?). I don’t need them to tell me to “pound one†any more ~ STOP RUNNING IT!
Then I saw this, and isn’t it the truth?

And uhmm…Go Spurs Go!!!
