Worst of OKC: Commercial Spokesperson

8:30 AM EDT on August 28, 2012

Commercials are bad enough as they are. Throw an obnoxious spokesperson into the mix and it makes them downright unbearable. Thank Gary England for DVR. Now the Diffee kids, Rit and Bob Mills suit are just a split second and over-gelled blur on my TV.

For those of you who still watch commercials, vote on. Do it!

The Diffee Kids - Precocious and Awkward Car Hawkers

The worst about watching these kids is knowing they'll never have to worry about a thing as long they live. That sweet Diffee money ain't going anywhere. Outside one of them getting drunk at Lake Overholser and being attacked by a homeless man, I'd say these kids are set. You at least know they can't act worth a damn, and that's something.

I bet the "coolness" promised by Not Wayne Coyne dries up pretty quick when the payments stop.

Jason White - Heisman Winner

I know. People love the Sooners. People love their Heisman winners. People also love their air conditioning guys. Wait. What? I think that's the latest thing he's pitching. I just know every time he's selling something it involves him saying he's a Heisman winner and then he rambles on about whatever company threw loads of cash at him to say he likes their thing. Sure, he's a sell out, but I do the same thing if I could.
