    After this commercial my wife (who's not a basketball fan) is finally interested in going to support the Pelicans. She said, "she got the $24."

    btw, it'll be awesome for this commercial to play during the Super Bowl.

    I Tweeted it to Trey Kerby. He favorited.

    Maybe it will get on The Starters and get national attention.

    So good.

    If you're from New Orleans, unless you're REALLY young, that seems completely impossible.

    Man...they nail it. Awesome!
    A football game can't stop hurricanes.

    It can't fix levees.

    Or rebuild houses.

    But it can let a city know...

    That it's a city once again.

    Welcome back, New Orleans.

    Conan Obrian already did that. Though them acting like they can't understand what the old man says annoys me.

    I was talking about the Pelicans remake.

    Conan still on the air?

    I was floored when I first saw this. So proud of them and the effort to connect to the City. Like Chris Trew said in his BSS piece posted today, we have to capitalize on this. Anthony Davis, aka The Brow, aka The Special Man! Let em' have it! Its all so fitting.

    I watched the Pelicans version first, then the original. Should've done it the other way around. The original reminds me of a Shreveport commercial for a pawn shop called Bobby's Jewelry. So bad it's hilarious. Our guys did a great job with this. All three of em were spot on!

    Oh the remake. Well it seems local media trying to blow it up. Every question I heard asked today after shoot around was about that ad.

    I like that they're making a lot of it.
    This team needs to be embraced more by the locals. I'm certain it would mean a lot to the players and further entrench basketball into the city's DNA.
