COLUMN: An oft-repeated commercial of a man betting on his phone while sitting on the toilet is ruining our enjoyment of Chicago Bulls telecasts.
And for weeks I’ve avoided bringing it up to spare readers from having to have a deep discussion on such a touchy subject.But it’s something we all can relate to, whether we admit it or not, and after repeated assaults on my senses, I no longer can remain silent. Watching Chicago Bulls games will be a thing of the past for me if changes aren’t made soon.
The message of the PointsBet ad is basically that you can bet on No. 1 Tennessee — or any team — while going No. 2. It’s a cringeworthy moment that sends you reaching for the remote. I’ve seen it enough to keep the remote handy when watching the Bulls so I can turn the channel before the big payoff . An NBC Sports Chicago spokesman on Friday deferred questions to PointsBet, declining to say when the ads will stop airing. PointsBet spokesman Patrick Sandusky said it hasn’t had any complaints and that people enjoy the ad. Everyone has different tastes, I suppose.Sandusky added that the bathroom is a sanctuary where “a guy can collect his thoughts and kind of leave the world behind.” He agreed it was a “little out of the box” and said it was a coincidence the actor looks like Rodgers.
