I’m not sure if you’ve seen it, but a White Sox Baseball player is talking to a Athletic’s Baseball player. They are sitting in a lounge at the Sports Center. The White Sox guy says, "Isn’t it weird that we’re the White Sox, but we wear black socks?’
The Athletics guy says, “Nope.”
Then the White Sox guy says, “Isn’t it weird”…(I forgot the second weird thing)
The Athletics guys says, “Nope. But I’ll tell you what’s weird,” and he points out the window, “that’s weird.”
And the camera goes out the window and shows a bunch of Mascots, Referee’s, and Marching Band members walking around a may pole with streamers.
The White Sox Guy says, “Yeah, that’s weird.”
What was really weird, wasn’t that the Mascots, Referee’s and Marching Band members were walking around a may pole, what was really weird was that they were all walking in the same direction! Half of them are supposed to walk in the opposite direction and weave in and out of those walking at them to create the weaved may pole!!!
Yes, you are absolutely right. That is the wierd part of that commercial. You really put your finger right on the wierdness of that commercial. Good job.
…eh… it’s an old sports centre commercial I think. It just cracks me up so much it’s painful.
It’s one of the host playing Jenga with a huge arse boxer, gloves and everything. I think they are playing next to the coffee machine. Of course the host wins and gloats something awful…
Jenga. JEEEEENGAAAAAA!
…and walks out of the room with both arms up in the air signaling his awesome victory.
Sometimes I think I am crazy, but then I reason that a crazy person wouldn’t consider he’s crazy. To a crazy person everything would seem normal. Therefore I am only different, just like everyone else, and not crazy.
Pretty crazy eh?

I get it now, thanks!
Mullinator,
I take it that’s another Sports Center Commercial?
I liked Kenny Mayne explaining the difference between Pokeman and Digimon. And the one where they put down natural grass in the office after a rash of knee injuries. But the Year 2000 “Follow me to freedom!” one is still the gold standard.
I find the current “Stone Cold” Steve Austin commercial to be a little odd, since pro wrestling isn’t really a sport.
My all-time favorite has to be the Sportscenter basketball team in a local league, mainly because it gives me a chance to relive the magical days of Pooh-Pooh-kachoo with Craig Kilborne.
Or, "That must be a homer, simpson, because the pitcher just went “D’oh!”
“That blows”
I love the fact that they started using “Sweet sassy mollassy!” after Ray Romano’s SNL skit.
But I’m still waiting for the following to make an appearance:
“Hey! Try not to shoot that puck up my pooper!”
“I’ll shoot the puck anywhere I want. And if that happens to be in your pooper, so be it!”
“Get out the checkbook and pay grandma for the rubdown!”
I also need to start integrating this into my daily vocab:
“If it takes me two-hundred years, I’ll be back! Lord Sweet Pappy Johnson with an erection, I will be back!”
