A while back there was an open call for Astros fans to show their hometeam support for a MLB promo. Turns out a friend of mine and his friend were picked and flown out to Miami for a commercial shoot. Check it out at I LIVE FOR THIS It has already been played on ESPN, and I am sure that we will be seeing it quite a bit with the season opener approaching. Enjoy, and notice how Houston's commerical is so much better than all of the other teams.
He's got a long way to go to catch the BoSox, and what's the name off that other team we threw a no hitter against?
Hey Guys, "Bee"-lieve it or not, I am actually one of those guys in the commercial. I am the guy on the right, the one who starts it off with "Resistance is futile!" I hope we made the Astros' fans proud and we represented well. I would like to hear some feedback on how we did. And to answer an earlier question, no we are not a part of the O's Bros, but we have much respect for them and all they do. I mean they actually have a freakin' sponsor, and that's awesome. I am also interested in who knew us in high school, we both graduated from Alief-Elsik. I hope to hear some feedback, or criticisms, soon....and one more thing, GO STROS!!! We are gonna be a lot better than most think, so let the season "Bee"-gin!
Went to astros.com and the commercial is up and running. Hey PippenAintEZ, let me know if you get royalties for internet plays, and I will make you some money whenever I can.
I remember the bzzzzzzzzz sound over the p.a. system after Beltran made that diving catch on Renteria in game 5 and then 2innings later Kent hit a walkoff homer. Those might be the top 2 plays in Astros history.
that was cool...great job...could have done without the combo buzzine and ass shaking, but if you were a girl, I would have been down with that...
Hey halfbreed, the email address you sent it to is an old one that I don't have anymore, I updated it so if you can send me that email to this newer yahoo account. Thanks buddy, and as for yaowink, I do not think that I get royalties for Internet plays, but thanks for that great idea! Other than that, thanks for the positive results, it is greatly appreciated. I will keep ya'll updated if anything new comes about. Can't wait for the season to start, GO STROS!!!
"Quall Call!! I Dont even know what that means!!" brilliant Im watching in NYC and feeling the love for the Stros. the RedSox one is lame, it has two sisters talking about their co-misery all those years. the Yankees ad features a school teacher in the Bronx who takes his kids to Yankee Stadium as a field trip. of course i like the astros one the best.
