Phil Posted April 12, 2006 Share Posted April 12, 2006 i realize "Your SF Giants" sounds kinda boring..but the campaign is really well done. Plus I stole in for my signature.But for TV commercials...NO ONE does it better than the A's. Consistently hilarious. And they just now updated their site with the new "A's in 06" slogan.http://oakland.athletics.mlb.com/NASApp/ml...commercials.jsp Those are really funny. I'm just wondering... they'd have to buy a lot of TV time to make that many ads worthwhile. Must have a big promotions budget.The Twins have some funny ones too.

CC97 Posted April 12, 2006 Share Posted April 12, 2006 The Jays 2006 slogan is "You gotta believe".It's original, we swear. Ahem 1973 Mets would disagree If you missed the sarcasm then there's no saving you --- Chris Creamer Founder/Editor, SportsLogos.Net "The Mothership" • News • Facebook • X/Twitter • Instagram Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shumway Posted April 12, 2006 Share Posted April 12, 2006 The Angels have been using "The A Team" since last season. The old commercials on the site are kind of fun. I enjoed looking through them the other week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HurricaneDavid Posted April 12, 2006 Share Posted April 12, 2006 "Baseball like it Oughta be" was another of my favorites. This was flashing on the scoreboard at Shea Stadium at the end of WS Game 6 in 1986. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redsfan39 Posted April 12, 2006 Share Posted April 12, 2006 That Padres one is incredibly clever. Somehow I think that it will be missed by alot of people.. And I definatley remember the Cardinals having big banners at Busch that said "Red Means Go"--EDIT--I just went and looked, I have a scorecard/brochure that says "Red Means Go" from the Cardinals.

Juddley Posted April 12, 2006 Share Posted April 12, 2006 I think the Marlins are using the same slogan from last year, "Get Hooked!" I like the one from 2003, "Go Fish!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maz Posted April 12, 2006 Share Posted April 12, 2006 I liked one of last years pirates commercials"Cooking with oliver Perez""First: Mix up the batter""Then: Throw in some junk.""Then: Bring the heat. Lots of heat.""Oh no, I burned them again."Or when an old lady was beating the dust out of a throw rug a huge hit comes from the other side seding all the dust in the lady's face. She looks around the corner and sees Jack Wilson standing there ready to hit it again when he says, "You gotta get under it."The Pirates "We Will" was invented by the new Manager Jim Tracy. It means "We will bring baseball back to Pittsburgh."So far. Im not so sure about that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pcgd Posted April 13, 2006 Share Posted April 13, 2006 The Cardinals are also using "Play a Hard Nine" this year. Its something the team said pretty much all year long last year and it LaRussa mentioned something about it after the Pujols home run in game 5 of the NLCS. I like it so much more than "This is Baseball Heaven." BTW...I did this a about a month ago and I found a few more:Twins: Twins TerritoryTigers: Who's your Tiger? (In the Background)Royals: Your Team. Your Town. (Cause who outside of Kansas City roots for them?)Rockies: Gen-R-ation (Wow.)Reds: The Power of TraditionRangers: Everyday is Game Day.Pirates: We Will. (We will what???)Phillies: Nothing but they do have an excellent illustration of a foul ball.Padres: On A Mission. (ha..ha...get it? Padre...Mission!)Giants: Your SF Giants.Dodgers: Think Blue.Devil Rays: We come to Play.Blue Jays: Nothing, just a bunch of guys trying on jerseys. And you used to complain about the Yankees and Red Sox buying championships....Athletics: A Different Brand of Baseball.Astros: It's On.Angels: The A Team. (I pity dem fools...that was lame...sorry)Cardinals: Welcome to Baseball Heaven. (Yeah...July in St. Louis by the Mississippi River, that's my idea of heaven.)
