Cool Commercial
Wednesday, April 13, 2011 at 7:57AM I am a basketball fan. It is really the only sport I enjoy watching on a regular basis. Living in Southern California all my life has made me a fan of the Lakers since I was a little kid.
The other night I was watching some highlights of games on the NBA TV channel and this commerical came on.
Isn't that cool? I mean, are the teams all wearing little blue circle pins? No. Did they mention type 1 or type 2? No. Does dribbling diabetics make you thing about Diet Coke running down your face? I am probably alone on that one.
But it made me happy to see the NBA and ADA working on something to raise awareness. Look, I am a type 1 but I understand the epidemic that is type 2 and frankly, the more visable we make this disease, the better.
So go "Slam Dunk" those carbs and "Fast Break" on that A1C.
There is a reason I am not in marketing.

What about the Brian McKnight commercial? He worked very hard to get the word out that people should love LA and that there's no place one would rather be. That took guts and determination on his part.
That was a pretty cool commercial. It just needed Pau doing a little dance move on a large TV screen in the background.
Huge Lakers fan here. Hope they can do it again this year. It's too bad they had to let Adam Morrison go, he wasn't a real good fit for the team but as a PWD he was representin'!
