Google Gets Into Advertising For The Stanley Cup Playoffs

Later today, the Stanley Cup Playoffs will begin. During the last major American championship, you might remember that Google ran a commercial. That commercial, of course, depicted a story about Paris and all that mushy romance shit. Well, now they are really stepping up their game. Google has just released a new series of similar ads, only instead of a French romance, they advertise the Conference Quarterfinals of the 2010 Stanley Cup Playoffs. They have put them up on YouTube for everyone to preview and watch already before they debut tonight during the first day of the playoffs.* Sit back, relax, and enjoy the 8 best hockey ads you will ever see!

#8 Montreal Canadiens vs. #1 Washington Capitals



#7 Philadelphia Flyers vs. #2 New Jersey Devils



#6 Boston Bruins vs. #6 Buffalo Sabres



#5 Ottawa Senators vs. #4 Pittsburgh Penguins



#8 Colorado Avalanche vs. #1 San Jose Sharks



#7 Nashville Predators vs. #2 Chicago Blackhawks



#6 Los Angeles Kings vs. #3 Vancouver Olympics



#5 Detroit Red Wings vs. #4 Phoenix Coyotes



*Please. Note. Sarcasm. I made these myself by simply going to youtube.com/searchstories for shits and giggles and posted them here to entertain you. These are not real commercials. They will not air in front of a national audience tonight on Versus. Though if they would it would be totes awesome. Especially that one about the Sharks choking. Making fun of a team like that in a national TV ad is what is missing from this great society of ours.

The Cleveland Cavaliers Have Been Watching Heineken Commercials

The Cleveland Cavaliers have apparently been watching commercials and apparently the Heineken commercial where females scream over clothes and males scream over Heineken beer really amused them. So much so that they decided to parody the commercial. So I was watching SportsCenter this morning and one of the things that they showed was a small part of this hilarious parody commercial by the Cavs. Granted, it's no Super Bowl Shuffle, but it is pretty damn funny.



Too funny! And I find the Heineken commercial extremely annoying and obnoxious, yet this one, I've seen it 3 times now and I've laughed out loud each time. Now if only they could parody the Bud Light commercial and throw the Boston Three Party out a window, then they would officially be the greatest basketball team in NBA history!
