BridgeportHeather Posted June 14, 2004 Share Posted June 14, 2004 I'm sure most of you have seen the new SOX PRIDE! commercial that they air on WCIU and WGN. It's in "THEM vs. US" form that's a total stab at Cub fans. It's about time they came up with a commercial like this. A couple of examples from the commercial: THEM: Have a fan who screams "Woo!" US: Don't. THEM: Believe they are cursed. US: Agree. It ends by saying "Oh...and the mayor likes us better! SOX PRIDE!!!" This year's Sox ticket marketing on TV has been nothing short of stellar!!! And this one tops the charts. Keep the commercials coming, guys!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoxFan1 Posted June 14, 2004 Share Posted June 14, 2004 I was LMAO whenI saw it on the Jumbotron at the game yesterday. My favorite is: THEM: Have a fan who screams "Woo!" WE: Don't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CubsSuck1 Posted June 14, 2004 Share Posted June 14, 2004 Seriously, Brooks Boyer OWNS the hell out of Rob Gallas. I'll second that for sure. Well.... I'm not so sure about that mascot Southpaw. That ones a little out there, but to each his own. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steff Posted June 14, 2004 Share Posted June 14, 2004 I'll second that for sure. Well.... I'm not so sure about that mascot Southpaw. That ones a little out there, but to each his own. Southpaw has been in the works since last year. Brooks didn't have anything to do with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well its good to know we have a mascot to rival the likes of the Philly Fanatic and the others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gsoxs1 Posted June 14, 2004 Share Posted June 14, 2004 Well.... I'm not so sure about that mascot Southpaw. That ones a little out there, but to each his own.

Texsox Posted June 14, 2004 Share Posted June 14, 2004 As soon as we win a few more pocket books, the Cubs will suffer. I actually believe WGN and being a super station with all those day games made the Cubs. If they didn't have that huge edge at the damn of cable tv, we'd have kicked their ass in the late 1990s and 2000. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wise Master Buehrle Posted June 15, 2004 Share Posted June 15, 2004 If the Cubs were smart, they'd have some jackass mascot that's a bear. No one wants to see a dirty sock running around, and no one knows what the hell a Phillie is, so why not go with the crazy looking alien-esque mascot that no one really knows what it is? I like it.

EvilJester99 Posted June 16, 2004 Share Posted June 16, 2004 I think Boyer hit a home run on his first try with this one!! He has everyone talking about it on every sports talk radio show. Even if they hate the idea they are still spreading the word. Awesome work Brooks Boyer.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
