Here I am, watching the Dallas Cowboys-New York Giants game on television in Texas. There's a commercial for Citizen watches. What Dallas Cowboy player does Citizen feature in its "Unstoppable" watch campaign's television commercial?
Eli Manning??
Unstoppable? Eli Manning?? Does Citizen really expect me to buy a watch sponsored by an opposing team's player, someone who's not even as good as my own team's quarterback? One who's never won the Super Bowl, or much of anything? Has Eli ever been to a Pro Bowl?
Eli had several critical drives in the second half, and what happened? Delay of game! Almost a second straight delay of game! Delay of game again!
Hey, Eli! Get a new watch, bro!
Hey, Citizen Watches! Great way to waste advertising dollars, huh? You bought the wrong Manning!
