Haven't seen a thread about this yet... but these new ads are sweet. It has a ton of footage of Yao throw-downs and ridiculous T-Mac dunks from the all-star game. With awesome "Episode I"-style music, the text says "Yao Ming... 2-time starting all-star"... "T-Mac... 2-time scoring champ"... As the slo-mo gets more intense, we get "1 mission..." "UNITED WE WIN." The music cuts out... "You in?" Plus the season tickets number. I just saw this ad on Spike. Got me as hyped up as I've been all offseason!! Anyone else catch it?
I saw it too this morning and I was pumped. It was on right after a Texans promo so I was doubly pumped. Houston Native
No kidding. The other day, the wife asked "doesn't the season start soon?" I told her that only in my wet dreams does the season end in June and start in August.
You're either (a) not married (b) haven't been married long or (c) you're going to lie in response to the question.
well, at least those of us who live in cities where the NBA holds its summer leagues the season ends in june, and starts again in mid-July...unfortunately, ya gotta have a high tolerance for some ugly basketball or be really jonesing for something other than WNBA...
try... (d) you're a DINK (double income no kids) and you only really see your wife 2 nights a week - and you don't have any kids to get in the way on those evenings... PS - I was going to put another of my clever pictures with my original statement, but the firewall at work tagged it (maybe I will amend it from home this evening !)
Sounds cool. Wish this commercial would be available to download in Quicktime for us "out-of-towners".
