Around SBN: Steve McNair Found Shot to Death


Ball Talk with Don Overbeck
This might be one of the lamest attempts I have ever seen a franchise make to sell tickets. First off this guy isn't funny and second of all his eyes are glued to the teleprompter the whole time he's talking. I asked the head Timberwolves sales rep, Jeff Munneke, why they made the switch to this guy from Sweet Water Jones(the tiny afro guy from last year) and I got a pretty funny answer. I guess the guy who did the acting for the Sweet Water Jones commercials last year is actually a 6 foot 5 actor from LA and it was costing the T'Wolves too much money to shrink him. How funny is that. He said he isn't sure how this campaign will turn out this season, but he said that they may be making their way back to the players for commercials. Thank God. Please no more corny guys that are being shrunk or dressing in 80's clothes.
