These commercials are still bad. Now they've got Manning & Romo doing them.

I'd say they both border on being homophobic. And Camptown Races? That was put down ever since Blazing Saddles.

1. I call them crownies........

Ok, they are bad but this line is funny.

3. Randy Moss Too

And i don't like that commercial because of the end, where the "little" Randy can't reach the cereal box on the top shelf.
I don't find that very funny.

4. And Andrew Luck.....

..... who has the worst voice on the face of the earth. He sounds like Gazoo from the Jetsons, with more bass.

5. Here's an opinion from an ad professional:

me.

First three spots with Rob Lowe did a great job of getting Direct's message across, but the campaign started wearing thin by the 4th and 5th iterations. This new round, without Lowe, are almost parodies of the original concept. Since the idea has already been played out Direct had no choice but to rely on the surprise factor of using celebrity sports endorsers. I'll give Manning and Romo credit -- they're pretty good actors. And the spots are well produced. But we got the point last year. Enough already. Time for a new idea.

BTW, have you noticed the new spots from Xfinity? They're kicking Direct's ass on price. Now that gets my attention.
