And this is why superstars don't come to Portland willingly

 

[RR7]

so you're saying the first one wasn't a blooper reel?

 

[Strenuus]

lmfao. That is so cheesy. But it's good to see LMA poke a little fun at what happened over the summer. That's a good sign.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

This commercial has only been up for one hour, I deserve major rep. We're breaking this huge basketball story!

And this is why superstars don't come to Portland willingly

San Diego is a much bigger city than Portland is, and surprisingly enough, a lot of their commercials (for Padres players) are just as dorky as this one.

Main point? local commercials, in EVERY CITY big or small, suck. Portland isn't unique, or unusual when it comes to this. So no, that'snot why "superstars" don't come to Portland.

Actually it is pretty sad just how little money our players make in local endorsements. I remember reading years back that David Lee made between $6-8 mill a year in local endorsements when he played for the Knicks. I bet the most LMA has ever made is $100k. I know we're not NY but that's a huge difference. In Roy's prime the biggest local endorsement he got was for Good Foot.

I'm calling bullshit on that one.

I think the most recent CBA has made it more difficult for players to represent local businesses. It costs more and its not negotiable.

Get the NBALeague pass and you'll see some REAL bad local commercials with players. Ones that make this one look like GodfatherII!

Smaller than Portland in tv market size

San Diego is a bigger city than Portland, both as a city and as a metro area. A lot of why San Diego is a 'small market' is it's proximity to LA and Mexico.

I also wonder how much of the military impact on San Diego has a role (in the # of "TV Homes")

Maybe according to some list, but the actual downtown area is smaller. Maybe it's more spread out.

No idea, but the market size is indeed smaller

And who can forget this gem from the Baltimore market. (Starring Haloti Ngata)

Why because of cheesy commercials?

 

[SlyPokerDog]

So McLoughlin Auto Mall must have bought out the Town and Country dealerships, anyone know what happened to the Martinez brothers?

Why did it just post a link and not the video?

For San Diego vs Portland, San Diego is far bigger. The commercial part of DT might be smaller, but in every other sense it is bigger. The city of San Diego has over 1M vs ~600k in Portland. The metro area is 3M vs 2M. As for the TV markets, here is a map that explains the reason why SD < PDX. It looks like all of Orange/Riverside counties are part of the LA market, which makes sense. But in PDX, part of the market looks to go up to or possibly into Idaho. That said, local commercials suck EVERYWHERE.

On a side note, Robin is a natural for commercials. He is quirky enough to pull off comedy, and well spoken enough to pull off more serious "roles".

Damn it! Why won't these videos post?

You know what I mean though. If we did what SD did, the Portland city limits would go out past Troutdale to the east and Hillsborro to the West.
