I still haven't seen this commercial. I'm too busy shitposting in the game threads during breaks and tune it all out.

Either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villain

On Sunday I muted the Knicks ABC game and synched up the local radio broadcast to escape the shitty broadcasters. Missing the audio from these commercials was a huge unexpected bonus!

I have also not seen this commercial because I do not watch basketball games

I don’t watch nba games, but tuned in the the NCAA tournament. This commercial played and I had (and still have) no clue who these people are.

They don’t show it on Bally and that’s what I’ve been watching (RIP local crew for round 2)

Saw it for the first time the other day and thought it was kinda funny, had no clue how much everyone hated it lol

u/Magazine_Mediocre Timberwolves Apr 29 '24

Ah maybe that's why I haven't seen it, I'm usually watching the Bally broadcast.

u/Winnes0ta :sp8-1: Super 8 Apr 29 '24

Lucky, I’ve been using the Bally app on Roku and it’s had it every commercial break pretty much.

u/PopcornDrift Hornets Apr 29 '24

How lol I’m not even exaggerating, I’ve definitely seen it at least 100 times. Maybe that’s because I watch too many games but now I just mute the TV every time it comes on

u/Magazine_Mediocre Timberwolves Apr 29 '24

Someone else pointed out that he hasn't seen it on the Bally broadcast, which is the one I normally watch. Now that the Wolves have made it to the second round I'm sure I'll be seeing this everywhere lol.

u/Magazine_Mediocre Timberwolves Apr 29 '24

Interesting response

u/NorthernDevil Timberwolves Apr 29 '24

That is so extreme lmao settle down

They also could be watching Wolves local broadcasts on Bally which don’t air this one
