Commercial Voting Extended Through Weekend and Reader Mail!

“Commercial Wars” voting has been extended through the weekend (Sunday at midnight to be precise). Procede (starring Giuessepe Franco) and FreeCreditReport.com douche are actually tied right now. (Matthew Cerrone from Metsblog.com has an interview with Franco that I stumbled upon tonight) You can watch the contestants here. Send your votes (or comments) to sportsvortex@centramainesportsblog.com. Here is the funniest e-mail so far (and thanks to “The Two Funny Guys and Ross Show” for the shout-out on their weekly podcast)….

Am I to believe that Giueseppe Franco is some amazing hair stylist, who the hell is this guy? Never mind that they are selling the same stuff he promotes for $19.95 and he sells to his customers for $450. Did you say $450 dollars, are you kidding me? What a great guy he is, he is the only guy who will get less clients from being on tv. Great business sense, let us tell everyone how bad I’m ripping you off. Im glad he puts his name on the line, thank god for that, I wouldn’t trust that Paul Mitchell guy, but Giueseppe Franco, I’m in. One last thing, in the commercial, Mark Opper says “it feels like his hair is so full in the back”, (yet) the guy never turns his head, should I believe him like I believe the (vaunted) hair stylist Mr. Franco? Im a Yankee fan, and I have had to endure this commercial way too long, this guy is a joke. My family and I laugh at this commercial when we see it, and we all wonder who the “tool” Giueseppe Franco is. SO SO SO SO LAME!!!!!- Louis from NYC

Commercial Wars

When you watch certain teams, you get doused with commercials from the same sponsor on every break. Today starts a tournament and is very simple, which commercial do you hate more? Today’s contestants-Procede (with a very special Gary Busey cameo) which floods Mets broadcasts every single commercial break. Who the HELL is Giueseppe Franco?

The next one is the FreeCreditReport.com guy. Personally, I think if the Jimmy Fund wanted to make some money, they should put up the opportunity to punch FCR.com guy in the face in an auction. The newest one with him on a bike is below.

Here’s the deal, send an e-mail to sportsvortex@centralmainesportsblog.com and tell me which one you think is the worst, and they will advance to the next round. Also, if you have a commercial that you hate to see when watching a game on a regional broadcast that you would like to nominate, send a link to it in the e-mail. By the way did I mention this contest is F-R-EE that spells free? (please make it stop, please)
