If you can't finish this, we'll have to go to the best man...

I think that’s my favorite, the rest just don’t really do it for me.

I laughed at

Definately awesome...

it looked like he was trying to be so serious while he was doing it.

I live and die with the Colorado Rockies and the Avs/Nuggets aren't that far behind....

"If you baldo, try Hair-B-There!"

this was the best part I thought, the 5 second clip of U-ball. But the wedding one was good too

That was so awesome.

U-ball is trying so hard.

Also, Spilly’s still the best, Francis still can’t act to save his life, and Todd could probably make a career on the side, if he wanted to.

Way funny

Jimenez just cracks me up in this one. On a related note, the best team name in my Fantasy BB league this year is “Ubaldo Like Your Grandpa”

Too many with Dinger.

Wedding was hilarious.

2nd That

….way too much Dinger. After the ‘sleeping standing up’ commercial he’s gone downhill, although of the last 3 years, I’d have to say the best natural actor was LaTroy Hawkins in that one.

I liked seeing Iannetta squatting at his "plate"

maybe that’s because I’ve had nightmares that Hurdle would prevent such occurrences though

Cook shaking off his wife

That was my favorite part. And Spilly sold the hell out of that staring contest.

Pretty solid

commercials this year. The wedding was definitely the highlight, and even though it’s a bit lame, I admit I laughed out loud when Atkins used his bat to hammer a nail. I didn’t realize that they had won awards for all of these commercials, but they are definitely worthy.

They did? Tell me more

More info? Here it is

The Rockies produced five commercials for the 2009 season. The 2007 and 2008 Rockies television campaigns each earned the IDEA Golden Matrix Award for best sports team promotional campaign by a college or professional level franchise.

Twice in a row has only happened once before, Mariners 1998-2000.

Haha

I like all of these. Ubaldo’s spot is definitely a highlight, as was Iannetta trying to catch a ball with oven mitts.

I’m so glad they started going this direction back in 2007. These types of spots are definitely the way to go. The A’s have had similar commercials for a few years that always cracked me up, so I was glad to see some from the Rockies. I still giggle anytime I think of the one last year with Dinger in the bed with a Diamondback.

Dinger in the bed with a Diamondback.

That was definitely my favorite from last year. Genius.

Loved the “Wedding Mound Visit”, “Starring Contest” & the players at home commercials are my favs.
