Pull that stupid commercial with the stupid iron man crap NOW!!!!!! It is by far the most unpopular thing this season. Even more so than the Poole Flop or the Reverse Logic inside the 10.

I'd rather watch GT market the stupid tricycles. Do not ever show that crap on TV again.

I get pissed off every time I see it. Also, expel that ööööass dweeb who made the speech.

While the commercial probably isn't the best thing, calling for the expulsion of Nick Selby on the basis of an interesting convocation speech that should probably have just remained an interesting convocation speech is very dwagish. So is typing something like 'ööööass dweeb'. Go look him up. This guy has accomplished more in the way of representing Tech outside the football-commercial realm while enrolled than 90% of his peers will.

Get ahold of yourself.

If given the option to use a pine cone as a loofah or watch that commercial, I choose the former.

You're not the target market considering you're not a prospective student and didn't even go to Tech

The first two or three times I saw it was cool, the last 5,000 not so much

I am beginning to think we would just replace it with something of its' equal.

On Fox & Friends this a.m., it was nominated as the 4th best youtube of 2013 (or something like that).

What it really indicates to me is how Reactionary GT people are. This thing hit with a splash, therefore the powers that be think it is great. Just like in 1991, a poll was taken to see which team GT people considered our biggest rival. Because we had, the year before, beaten a one time lucky uva team in a great game - uva suddenly became our biggest rival. Throwing away decades of forever playing ugag (& Clemson) Again, total Reactionary stupidity.

Curious - how do you know MBob reads this site? Not saying it is not true, just curious how we know this to be true? Thx.

Happy New Year.

It is getting old, but I think it was a funny speech. Those who hate it the most seem to be in denial about the demographic of tech students.

My son who is a High School Jr. and wants to major in Computer Science likes the commercial, although to be honest he likes the girl drumming with the robot better. The school does the commericial not the AA. If you want Bobinksi to improve our image, have him sit our sourpuss football coach down and tell him to change his attitude and sell our program.

I hate the commercial. It was okay for the first week or two after it happened but good Lord it is stale and reinforces the Nerd Nation mentality.

It is what it is.

My suggestion: They could save money by using it again next year. :cool:

I thought it was cool as a YouTube video. I don't believe it is a great marketing tool for the school. IMO the ad Texas used last night highlighting accomplishments of their grads including Ricky Williams(ready to be bashed) was much better. Promoted the entire school not just the academic side. Considering most people see these commercials during football games I would at least include athletics in some fashion.

Bobinsky is building his bunker slowly and secretively. Would love to see him at least publicly make an effort to say something to sell GT, but I highly doubt it. Make me a believer Bobinsky. Show me we have a leader as AD.

Bobinski has nothing to do with that commercial. The commercial is a paid advertisement by the school, not the AA. Your bitching would more properly be directed to Peterson.
