Phil The Thrill Posted July 2, 2019 Posted July 2, 2019 (edited) I found this on my Facebook feed last night. It’s the newest commercial for West Herr a big dealership in WNY that uses Tasker as a spokesperson. Anyway they use Josh in this commercial. I wish I could say it was humorous. It would be cool if it was genuinely funny but this seems like a tired gag from 30 years ago. It would have been funnier if Tasker wanted to play catch thinking he was the Steve Tasker from 1992. But he was too slow and Josh there too hard for him to catch. He then comes back making excuses why he couldn’t come up with the passes, to which Josh has some kind of smart comeback maybe something about accuracy...LOL Edited July 2, 2019 by Phil The Thrill 1 4 4

ocemur Posted July 2, 2019 Posted July 2, 2019 Consider this a practice ad. The real, question, particularly if Allen can have a breakout year, is can he get National endorsement deals. If he can't, his agent and maybe others will be whispering in his ear four years from now trying to get him into a big media market. I wonder what role Pegula S&E can and will play in that. It's way to circumvent the cap and teams have been doing as long as there has been a cap (I'm looking at you, Jerry Jones). If we are to be competitive over the long haul, we have to be able to offer what other teams can and do offer.
PetermansRedemption Posted July 2, 2019 Posted July 2, 2019 No more cringeworthy than the rest of their TV ads. Here in WNY we really have the “cream of the crop” with Fucillo and West Herr’s horrendous commercials. 1

If he succeeds on the football field and becomes an outstanding QB he'll have plenty of national endorsement deals. Green Bay isn't exactly a big media market but their last two QB's seemed to get on national TV selling stuff quite a bit! 2
US Egg Posted July 2, 2019 Posted July 2, 2019 There almost always an air of "corniness" in TV commercials. That Tasker gets paid, likely quite well by West Herr for those ads, it's not on him regarding the silliness of their content. Most anyone would take that gig. 1

What is with every vehicle @ something 888? That said....didn't have an issue with the commercial. Local ones are always corny.

NoHuddleKelly12 Posted July 2, 2019 Posted July 2, 2019 I admit I chuckled. Sure it could’ve been funnier with a better script but it still beats having to watch another insurance commercial any day, imho. 1 1

CaptnCoke11 Posted July 2, 2019 Posted July 2, 2019 lol what is it with Buffalo and these corny commercials and jingles?
CommonCents Posted July 2, 2019 Posted July 2, 2019 I can’t wait to be in Buffalo, I will enjoy that silly commercial with a side of wings and a tall beer. 1

You don’t have corny commercials where you come from? Obviously you’ve never seen much local television from other cities/states. Ngata and Tucker royal farm commercials come to mind for me. Talk about cringe factor.
blacklabel Posted July 2, 2019 Posted July 2, 2019 So I'll be here at work for the next seven hours with, "Welcome to West Herr, New Yoooorrrrk!" stuck in my head, so... thanks for that. 1

A friend went in to the one in Adams and offered 23,888 for a truck they had on for 25,888. They said they could go to 23,900. He told the sales manager he was sure they were breaking their own policy by not selling in the 888 relm. Took his offer as they got a chuckle out of it. Transmission went 4 weeks later. 1
