April 11, 200719 yr I didn't see a thread on this so i'll throw it up here. The Blue Jays came up with humorous ad for Frank after airing once or twice it was pulled because...well...maybe you can tell me why it was pulled. I thought it was humorous....FT ad It's not like the commercial ends with the kid on the floor lying with him arm twisted at an impossible angle....again...i thought it was a good ad. They said it was too violent for the airwaves. Everyone knows....pillows don't hurt kids....people hurt kids
April 11, 200719 yr The Mounties have surrounded Frank's house and threatened to take his 981 home runs (I believe that is what 488 is after translation to Canadian) away if he protests this decision.
April 11, 200719 yr There's going to be a Frank Thomas pillow night in September for a Blue Jays game, in response to this ad.
April 11, 200719 yr Rumor has it that by July they expect to ban Frank from Canada all together for "baseball abuse." Edited April 11, 200719 yr by whitesoxfan101

April 11, 200719 yr I laughed really hard with this ad. QUOTE(Athomeboy_2000 @ Apr 11, 2007 -> 10:34 AM) 488 HR is roughly 560 Canadian lol
April 11, 200719 yr No way could he really do that to a kid, it wasn't even a very good swing. It's obvious he's juicing now.
April 11, 200719 yr At the end of the Ad isn't that Frank as a White Sox? Looks like they tried to digitally remove the logo off the helmet and jersey. I PROTEST THAT!!!
