My name is Kevin.  I have a red sox blog, I work for Ace Ticket, and I love ridiculous sports commercials. Enjoy.

My personal favorite is Red Sox closer Jonathan Papelbon in his horrific acting debut.

LT Knows... Spas 

Ladainian Tomlinson Spa Commercial

Ladainian Tomlinson knows a thing or two about loyalty. That's why after all the pro-bowl, records, and millions of dollars, he still does commercials for the first company to give him the chance, Caldera Spas. Swings a baseball bat, oddly enough.

And this would be the only way the A's win a postseason series, too. 

Ichiro commercial - Ichiro Shift

2003 Mariners Commercials from MLB.com "Ichiro Shift shows the lengths other teams will go to in order to try and keep the Mariners right fielder off base. In the commercial, the Oakland Athletics are seen positioning 15 players on the field in an attempt to foil Ichiro Suzuki's ability to "hit 'em where they ain't." Even the A's mascot, Stomper the elephant, is called onto the field in the futile effort."
