Ok. I can’t take it anymore. I have to ask and put this out there because it’s making me nuts… What the hell is the deal with the ad on NESN during Red Sox games that has a fat, naked, bald guy with a goatee and glasses, sitting in a car and talking about new car smell?

Who is the marketing genius that came up with this ad? Seriously! Fat naked guys do not sell cars folks!

Every season NESN always seems to have one or two really bad advertisements that are played during Red Sox games but damn if this is not the worst one yet.

A fat bald guy sitting in a car in his underwear yammering about how new car smell makes you want to buy a new car does NOT make me want to buy a car! Nor does it make me want to run out and check out your dealership’s selection of vehicles. Trust me on this!

All I can think of when I see this ad is, ‘why is this guy sitting in his underwear in a car and which car is it at the dealership that he’s sitting in, because I sure as hell don’t want to take that one out for a test spin.’

I’m sure the guy in the car sweat a lot during the taping of that commercial. Do you think he stuck to the seat? Do they had to peel him out of there when the shoot was over? I bet that must have hurt! Or did the high volume of back-hair provide some insulation between his skin and the car seat? I don’t know, but I do know I don’t like it because, it’s just, eeewwwwwwww.

Every season NESN has an ad that is constantly and continually played during Sox games that eventually becomes so grating and annoying, I want to throw my shoe at the TV when I see it. It’s only April and fat naked bald new car smell guy is already this year’s clear winner. Game over.

I’ll end my little tirade by simply saying, just say no to man-boobs and next time, put a hottie in the car seat in her underwear and maybe I’ll change my perspective. Thank you.

In the meantime, 4-1 Sox bottom of the 7th. Hmmm. Seems like when I write posts during Sox games, the team scores a lot more runs… This could become a heavy burden. I can’t have the result of every Sox game hanging on my keyboard…

While I’m at it, now that the inning is over and we’re back to the advertisements, I hate the KFC ‘Famous Bowls’ ad with the guy explaining how the girl in the ad wants all her favorite ingredients in the bowl. Hate it.. And I want to punch that guy.

(I think I’m in a bad mood?)

Update:
Sox win 6-1. I guess it’s not all bad.
