The David Robinson / Dick Vitale Pizza Hut commercial

[lucas80]

They usually don't show the full ad. Usually they do the version where only Robinson is on camera, and Vitale's voice is piped in. The full version shows Vitale in a glass sound booth yapping away.
I keep hoping the booth starts filling with water.

Were any shoes thrown? If there were, I'm confident you'd tell us. Keep up the good work.

Why? Hating on Vitale seems so 20 years ago. Dude's good and brings energy and passion to the sport.

Totally agree. There aren't many people who have the passion for what they do more than him. If you have haters, you're doing something right.

Howard Cosell and Dick Vitale are two guys who
made a living by talking loudly and often. Their
passion behind the microphone came across on
TV screens as obnoxious.

The commercial is actually quite clever.

Reminiscent of the "Howard the Duck" presence amongst "The Collectors" artifacts.

Energy without focus is spastic. He is a shameless homer for certain coaches who just yells into the microphone. He provides no analysis.
