Is There Anything Currently On Television More Frightening...

[hatvol96]

than the ESPN commercial with that hobbit that coaches the UNC women shrieking "Are you ready?" at her team?

 

[tidwell]

I knew I couldn't be the only one that found that to be unpleasant to the eyes and ears. :lol:

That old gal has the John Wooden ear look going on, too.

Can someone explain to me how anyone at ESPN could think that commercial makes the women's game more appealing to viewers?

 

[tidwell]

Trying to appeal to a particular demographic?

What demographic? Trolls? Hobbits?

The response I'm thinking of is probably borderline inappropriate, so I'll refrain from saying it.

I can't imagine that a substantial part of the demographic you're alluding to sees Sylvia Hatchell and says,"Ooh, I've got to see more of her. What time do those games start?"

 

[hatvol96]

Where's Melissa Hamburger? She could shed some light on this topic.

I lose my appetite everytime I see that...glad to see there are a few here at VolNation who are as frightened by that commercial as I am.

More Stacey Dales would perk my interest alot more.:wub:

 

[hvwarrior58]

Every NCAA Women's tourney commercial has that clip in it. That is the bad thing.

Stacey Dales and Erin Andrews jello wreslting at the half. That sir would bring viewers.

Now you're talking. I'm sending your suggestion to ESPN immediately.... :dance2:

that is very insulting to hobbits...

I remember being on an elevator at the Student Services Bldg. with a mixed crowd (men and women). A senior administrator (name withheld) made the comment that more people would come to the Ladyvols games if they played in bikini's. Of course, there was an awkward silence.

I was surprised no one file a grievance against the guy.

 

[milohimself]

Whatever. Jump shooting contests filled with mediocre jump shooters bores me.

 

[Mrs.BigOrangeNation]

I rather see Stacey Dales be an NBA analyst then Swin Cash. Damn she is annoying...

 

[milohimself]

Swin Cash's commentary would be far more interesting with a ball gag stuffed in her mouth.

You forgot about those breakaway, high flying, crowd rising............lay-ups.

LOL

 

[VolInsider]

While I completely agree with the ugh-factor of the commercial:crazy: ...

...Hatchell the Hobbit is a former assistant coach at Tennessee under Summitt.

Go Lady Vols, since you are our last hope for a national title this season:ermm:

 

[Bennett4UT]

The UNC coach's half time interview was pretty disturbing

 

[Jaytrain5]

My girlfriend pointed out that Sylvia Hatchell looks a little like Randy Quaid in "Kingpin."

 

[hohenfelsvol]

I think they attempted to show a girls and coaches who get seriously into the game. They failed miserably. I did have an urge to watch Lord of the Rings though this weekend.
