I still do not care about sportsketball, but A for Effort, boys! Although, I’m not entirely sure who this is for? Sports fans who also love critically beloved but surprisingly-and-depressingly-middling-in-the-ratings comedy? Are there 12 comedy nerds out there who would love sports if only Alec Baldwin and John Krasinksi (or Ricky Gervais and Steve Carrell, or Will Ferrell and Danny McBride, or Stephen Colbert and Amy Sedaris, or S.J. Perelman and Bob Elliott) told them it was OK? Fair enough. Congratulations on your new hobby, comedy nerds! It will be good for you to get some sun on that old basement face. If you do go to an actual sporting event, though, please try and keep the Monthy Python quotes to a minimum, and whatever you do, do not shout “SIMPSONS DID IT!”

Why do I have the sudden urge to make a sandwich?
Calm it down there, Nightmare
Great, now both my real-life and internet husbands are cockblocking me.

And why don’t I have a sudden urge to buy a hat? The ad guys probs should’ve workshopped this one a little bit more…

Normally I would not be on board with this, but if Alec Baldwin is a member, S’I'G’N M’E U’P.
Always be selling hats
alternatively hats are for closers
God, so many rules to follow for nerds at sporting events. I thought they’d be fun, but I didn’t expect some kind of Spanish Inquisition.
“He must be an All Star”
“How’d you know that?”
“He hasn’t got shit all over him”
To be fair, no one expects the Spanish Inquisition.
Yes, yes, very funny. Nice little baseball commercial. Well done.
Ahem. Anyway..
SETTLE THE STUPID NFL STRIKE ALREADY. JESUS CHRIST.
I would like to state for the record that Giant’s closer Brian Wilson is forreal TBS Very Funny in all of his commercials and in life.
also Pet Sounds is a masterpiece
as a lifelong Dodgers fan it is very very difficult for me to say this, but I (reluctantly) agree that Brian Wilson kind of rules. His Jim Rome interview was amazing

well, crap. that link sucks. better version: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zhi3SX0TAmw
He’s like a sane, healthy Charlie Sheen. Also, Jim Rome is a terrible man.
Jim Rome is, in fact, the worst. That time he kept calling Jim Everett “Chris Evert” and Jim Everett flipped out and slapped him… good stuff.
he wins more than Sheen too
I’d also like to point out that he’s quite something for the ladies. The other day I texted my friend to see if she wanted to go to a Giants game so we could stare at him all day. But I accidentally wrote “let’s sex harass the Beard” as I was text jogging and now sex harassing is the best phrase ever. So in conclusion, Brian Wilson is funny and weird and hot and has the ability to change the English language with his awesomeness.
I want to sex harass a few of the current Giants IF YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN (everyone knows what I mean because this phrase is pretty much to the point).
That took a lot of courage, veebs. I appreciate the effort and want to reciprocate but I just…can’t think of anything positive to say about the Dodgers. Blue is a nice colour. That’s all I’ve got.
Brian Wilson is one of my favourite people. Aubrey Huff isn’t bad either for the comedy factor in the Giants world. I love our misfit team SO MUCH I will give them all hugs.
that Giants roster has some ABSURD names. They all sound like some snakeoil salesman character in an old-timey story
Madison Bumgarner
Aubrey Huff
Winston Featherchest
Buster Posey
Sebastian Peemuffin
(I only made two of those up)
Baseball is already the most old-timey sport we have, so adding in modern players with names like Madison Bumgarner and Buster Posey just adds to my enjoyment.
That said I wish Winston Featherchest and Sebastian Peemuffin were real. I would proudly chant their names. They still wouldn’t hold a candle to hearing grown men earnestly talk about Albert Pujols, though.
dying your beard black and saying really, really stupid things over and over again makes you neither funny in commercials nor in life. he is the dane cook of baseball.

Looks like someone hates fun…
I’m feeling that bearface may be a Pirates fan…
They probably shouldn’t have bothered writing Alec Baldwin’s lines for this. I hear when it comes to over-the-phone trash talk he’s kind of a natural.
Too right. I heard he was a voice-double for Mel Gibson in his calls to Oksana.
Choosing between the Red Sox and Yankees is like choosing between Coke and Pepsi. No matter who you pick, you end up being disappointed.
Ahem. Classic Red Sox fan is not celebrating in April and despairing in October, it is that OR it is despairing in April (hello 2011) and then almost celebrating in October, before despairing again. What I’m trying to say is that unless we are talking to a Yankees fan, we are basically despairing. If we’re a “classic” fan.
“Rooting for the Yankees is like rooting for fascism.” Spectacular.
A truer statement was never uttered.
To be fair rooting for the sawx is like rooting for those d bags in benghazi. bandwagon fans.
You know, I would enjoy a 30-minute baseball game in place of Perfect Couples any Thursday.
Just as long as they don’t take away Outsourced! Their accents are different than our accents! Their food is spicier than our food! LOL4EVA!
Alec Baldwin has the best voice. I want him to eulogize me. All day and every day.
RIP cakeordeath
I think if there was a poll question asking people if they preferred the Yankees, Red Sox, or a terrorist attack to occur during a Yankees/Red Sox game, the terrorists would win in a landslide.
That said, there is no lower form of life than a Red Sox fan at a road game.
Well, it’s time to defend my honor. Do you accept?
Hey, I call ‘em like I see ‘em. Also, they continually bitchslap my team in the playoffs, so that may color my opinion a bit.
Angels? Yeah, that might be doing some coloring. Also, road games are different for the Sox, in that we have really scattered fans, and it is also genetics, you can grow up elsewhere, but if your parents were Sox fans, you probably are, so those road fans are pretty often actually at home.
also most sox fans, especially the ones outside of new england, but also inside of new england, have only known about baseball since 2004 and are a bit confused as to how being a fan works.
Now you’re just being an ass and wrong: most is a huge exaggeration; Sox fans have lived outside of New England for ages upon ages; and most importantly, this is a family matter — we handle the post-04 fans ourselves.
Ouch man, ouch.
Basement face comes naturally to hockey fans AND comedy nerds, especially comedy nerds who are hockey fans. And I’m not talking about Kevin Smith or Dave Coulier here.
I am all over this post because someone invoked Brian Wilson. What’s that, east coast baseball talk? I can’t hear you over the sound of my favourite sports crazy person.

I see your Brian Wilson and raise you a Ryan Dempster

He’s not as crazy as Wilson, but that is a damn fine impression. My hat’s off to him, that got a good laugh out of me.
don’t forget this dude
Izzzzzzzzzzzzyyyy!!
Also, this:
This is a pretty sexy rivalry, but I still prefer this one:
Honestly, I’m only mildly interested in baseball, but I have such nice, sweet memories of my grandfather growing up being a Yankees fan & on top of that being born & bred Brooklynite I must say, with due respect:
YANKEES RULE! Suck it Boston!
Maybe I just need to relax like these two guys.
Probably a little to late, but can we all talk about Alec Baldwin’s eyelashes? He always looks pretty straight on 30 Rock, and maybe it’s the black and white, but those eyes are definitely bi-curious.
