ESPN Commercials suck

ESPN drives me crazy by thinking they are "funny".

First its the bullshit, sorry ass sport center announcers who thinks in freaking open mike night instead of a highlight show.

This morning I just saw 2 ESPN comercials back to back that were supposed to be more of their "humorous" stuff. Awful. Why does everything they do have a conry-ass jokes assocaited with it??

I think the "Duke boy" one is kinda funny.

Seth: Fogell, this ID says that you're 25 years old. Why wouldn't you just put 21, man?
Fogell: Seth, Seth, Seth. Listen up, ass-face: every day, hundreds of kids go into the liquor store with fake IDs, and every single one says they're 21. Pssh, how many 21 year olds do you think there are in this town? It's called f*cking strategy, alright?

ESPN has a long and proud tradtion of lampooning themselves with their commercials - been doing it for 20+ years. Maybe not all of them are winners, but some of the funniest commercials I have ever seen are courtesy of ESPN.

LOL, thread hijack in process. Let's flip this 180. Best ESPN commercials of all time...

Y2K crisis - Charlie Steiner runs around with face paint and a necktie wrapped around his head, "Follow me to freedom!"

7'7" Georghe Muresan, Kenny Mayne, and Trey Wingo? (I think he was 3rd) dancing together amongst the Bristol cubicles.

Power outage at Bristol one night. When Dan Patrick (or whoever it was) goes down to the basement to check it out, we find out Lance Armstrong powers the building with an exercise bike. He was taking a break because he thought everyone had gone home for the night.

So many more...
