Favorite Spurs Pitchman

[spurs_fan_in_exile]

In the long and storied history of Spurs endorsement deals what was your favorite? Duncan's H-E-B commericials? Or his work for AmEx, Duncan and Grant Hill mowing lawns and selling Sprite, and he and David selling shaving gel?

What about Sean Elliott's Cleo caliber work for Taco Cabana? Manu's unintelligible ads for Christus Santa Rosa? Dwayne Schintzius for Domino's?

All of them are classics but what's your pick?

Sean Elliott dressed up in that silly-looking outfit shaking the castanets and carrying around the life-size carboard rendering of himself. I still think that was the best one (Taco Cabana). Also when he made the mouth move up and down on his cardboard likeness and acted like a bad ventriloquist saying "Taco Cabana" out of the corner of his mouth. :lol

[Sec24Row7]

No one will ever top Sean's Taco Cabana commercials.

I liked the "In the Kitchen with Tim" commercials for HEB (particularly the dessert one that Amy was in about the ice cream and they were eating out of the carton :lol )

I also like the reading commercials; it would be hard to pick a favorite, I like all the reading commercials for different reasons. I really like the new one.

1.Sean - Taco Cabana
2.Timmy - HEB

Dennis Rodman's Massingil commercials.

[SpursWoman]

Sean Elliott, no doubt.



I do like the storytime ones that Tim does with Brent Barry in it....

I hate the Manu Hallmark Institute ones.. :fro

Oh, damn ... I forgot about the TD/DR ones. Those were good. :)

I like Timmy and Gino's Gunn Commercials the best.

Timmy and Malik were a cute combo- but Gino and Timmy have the better scripts.

Story time with Tim is a close second.

And since I watched it on the DVD last night: I have to give props to Tony and Gino for their trophy love commercial last play offs.

Timmy's trophy love the year before that was awesome as well.

I especially liked Sean's radio spot about his days in Detroit..."THERE WERE NO TACO CABANAS!!!" :lol

Was that the commercial for the shaving cream?

[spurs_fan_in_exile]

What? No love for Malik?

"Dial 397-PAIN."

[angel_luv]

I said I liked him in the Gunn commercials. I always have love for Malik. :)

[T-Pain]

its a toss up between Duncans Nike commercial with KG when they were both with Nike and Seans TC commercials.


In case yall forgot about Tims and KGs commercial, its starts out when KG is playin one on one against kids and eventually men and beats everybody. But then after a crowd gathers and people kept gettin beat by KG, Timmy shows up with the crowd behind him, and then everybody charges at KG in anger. I think the setting was in St. Croix because of the surrounding palm trees and the people. But it was badass!

Oh, I forgot about AJ!

"Can you do your growsree shoppin' at yo bank? Thass why I do aww my banking wif IBC."

[T Park]

Pop's radio commercials about doing stuff wild, like squeezing the toothpaste tube from the middle :lol


Can't remember what he advertised.

Exactly!

[Ed Helicopter Jones]

No love for Mr. Robinson's neighborhood? You guys have something against a 7'1" black man doing a sales pitch for Nike from his bathtub? What's up with that?

[T Park]

"Coach Brown won't be invited back into Mr. Robinson's neighborhood anymore"

[Lebowski Brickowski]

This thread is awesome. So many memories. :cry

[Solid D]

Remember David Robinson and Dennis Rodman for Stuffed Crust Pizza Hut? Remember that eating it backwards was recommended? :lol

David Robinson for the NBA:

"Stay in School" and "Just Say No"

[Darrin]

I was always a fan of David Robinson's "My house" commerical for Nike (92 or 93).
