First off, this is NOT ME in the video. My name is Deb and I'm a blonde but I don't own a Routon nor am I a soccer mom. But I thought this was funny and the MLS trophy handler can be my girlfriend any time (and look at all the DCU swag in the background of the MLS office. ) http://web.mlsnet.com/vw/rtc.jsp?partnerId=mls_enews_11112008#/it_begins/
This gets to replace Olsen's Dick's commercial...which i'm sure he is ecstatic about...ive thought both videos were hilarious, reallly like that MLS (with help from VW) is trying to bring more awareness to the sport...
I'd also like to point out the irony of "picking up" two West Coast guys in NY just to drive them all the way out to California.
Louis Crayton makes his acting debut in Episode 3: http://web.mlsnet.com/vw/rtc.jsp?partnerId=mls_enews_11112008#/peoples_pickup/ I'll say it now, yes, it would have been funnier with Zach or even Q.
Really have found these spots to be over done and not too funny. Until Ben kicks the ball into the grocery bag while the guy is walking out. Are they really playing these on TV?
If this chick is anything like a real soccer mom, it is no wonder they are reviled. By episode 5, I expect The Handler to either kill her, or drive away while she's in a rest area bathroom.
But if she is in the bathroom, how can he drive over her? Of course, then he'll have to back up to make sure it was something in the road and not something breaking on the car. And not being sure, he'll have to do that a few times before driving off...
Okay, the gas station attendant has me cracking up! "She turned bad in about 3rd grade. Told me she had a sandwich she wanted to trade. 'Course she knew I had a peanut allergy..."
I think they've been pretty funny...new olsen was gonna end doing something where he had to scramble back to the van...and the slight homage to deliverance was quality...i second your thoughts about the gas station attendant.
Okay, this latest one is just cruel: http://web.mlsnet.com/vw/rtc.jsp?partnerId=mls_enews_11112008#/la_sleepover/ "My team didn't make the play-offs." Poor Benny. Rub salt in the wound why dontcha WV?
