    Chance...please help!!! I have to vent or else this is going to lead to road rage. Hey 610...I know you make money off of your advertisers, but there has to be a line drawn somewhere...and that somewhere is "Pickle Power". As any regular listener to 610 knows, there are a fair number of commercials played at any point during the day. And for some crazy reason, it seems they multiply during the "drive time" hours. Well, I have to call out 610 on playing the Visa commercial signficantly more than others. Everyday I have to hear about how some dork in Cleveland orders his cheesesteak every Sunday and all of a sudden, starts shaking his pickle at the TV and through some miraculous Benny Hinn moment, helps score his team a touchdown. Or...follow that up by the lineman (can't remember who because I'm usually so depressed at that point in the commercial I can't listen anymore) who has to kiss his shoes for all the members in his family. "I got a lot of names." Uggggggghhhhhhhh!!!!

    OK...so you say turn the channel...I can't do that...that means moving over to FM. Turn it off...I can't do that either...I'll miss the next big trade rumor from Matt Jackson. So the best thing to do is cancel this horrid commercial...please!!!:mad: :D

    Pickle power kicks ass. don't hate...congratulate.


    For the record, I hate the betting spots...except the ones I voice. Did anyone catch my "drunk" read yesterday? classic.

    I used to hate "plant a tree...for your tomorrow". I LOVE the Lottery "jackpot" songs. I love the Egan & Hinson jingle we did where we say "and they think the cowboys suck!". there are some others that I don't dig.

    I especially like the redneck twang you utilize vocally, even though the jingle sounds a little like Angel in the Centerfold.

    Trailer Wheel and FRAAAAAAAAAAAAME!!!!!! :D

    I like the emphasis on "crap" and its frequent use.

    Nothing will ever be worse than this one:

    You get a Line and I'll get a pole, honey
    You get a line and I'll get a pole dear
    I'm gonna win me a million bucks
    You're gonna want half... good luck
    Honey, Baby mine...

    i can't stand the... "what do you call an insomniac ballerina?... someone who'll dance the night away." then there was another joke involving a barber and cooking and a "meal with all the trimmings." ugh. sucky commercial.

    after all this time, i do still enjoy the jim rome "phenominal" spoof commerical.

    for me, the most loathed commercials are the ones for the stand up MRI's. If the doctor didn't know the man was a basketball player until he showed him what motion hurt, how did he know he was the go to guy on the team and that his shooting form needed help?
