Am I the only one who's annoyed by these ads during the playoffs? The first time I saw one, I thought, eh, ok. Now they play them all the time and I want to leave the room each time!

Yeah, I'm getting annoyed too. The way he puts the drama in his voice, you'd think he's a die-hard fan of every team in the playoffs.

But I'm not nearly as annoyed by the actober commercials as I am many of the others that are so over-played during the playoffs. Like the Taco Bell commercial and the Budwiser at the opera commercial, and at least half a dozen others. The play-offs need some more sponsors...I'm tempted to DVR the games and watch them delayed just so I don't have to suffer though the commercials.

SUPER irritating. Almost as irritating as the guy who did the impressions on TBS.

I'm sick of these and the FrankTV ads and the erectile dysfunction ads.

I recorded SNL since I was watching the game late on Saturday night (Indians fan here). They did a series of spoofs on the Dane Cook Actober ads. I guess the writers at SNL noticed how annoying they are too. ;)

Yea the SNL spoof was quite amusing. The Fank Tv ads are very very very annoying. Need to go QUICK!

I guess I wasn't quick enough....you get this message when clicking on it:

You'd think it would be good PR for NBC. I haven't watched SNL in ages b/c it's boring! But I might have changed my mind had I seen the clip.
