    Oh hell no. Watching Tennessee fans talk shit and then have it blow up in their faces is my childhood in miniature.

    I admit ... those first couple Free Credit Report commercials were catchy as hell. My 2-year-old son would go nuts for restaurant one. But man, they've gotten really bad.

    I'll give you that, but it's the only saving grace.

    The first three or four, probably up until the "I married my dream girl" one, were all fantastic.

    But I want to throw something at the TV when any of the new ones come on.

    I think the Axe people really know their audience ... my wife teaches middle school, says you can hardly breathe there because of the stuff. It is what "Hai Karate" was to those of us who attended junior high in the early '70s.
    So while women are gonna think that image is absurd, 14-year-old boys are gonna think "Hey, what could be better?!"

    I might be the only guy on this site that doesn't find Axe to be repulsive.

    Up here in Torontostan these days, it's gotta be the return of the mega-obnxious Russell Oliver, giving you CASH! for your GOLD JEWELRY!

    The The Subway $5 foot long commercials. Smut. Just absolute smut. They should just break out footage Sandra Corleone at the wedding.

    ;D
