That or maybe they're filming a hemorrhoids commercial? Or a remake of Michael Jackson's Music Video 'Beat It'? Confused

Apparently, by the text on the pictures from the shoot, the players in those shots aren't supposed to look happy in the first place.

Besides, if I'm wrong, it would be silly for Adia Barnes to look like that just on her own...this is the first thing she's done like this, I think. You know she's gonna enjoy something like that. Or I'd hope she would.

I especially liked it when they said: "And these are our fans." And they show just two people. Two! lol...

And they were both women, and then they follow it with "This is OUR Game!" OK, so I guess I'll have yet another year of Tampax commericals and Breast Health Awareness ads Exclamation

The first thing that came to my mind regarding the spot was that this was Val's last hurrah in terms of marketing the league. It certainly doesn't set a very high bar for the new commish to top...

What a lame, pathetic add. Zero production values. What did they spend on it, two cents? Looks like it was done by an ad agency intern who was later fired. Really underscores the need for a pro like Orender. I hope she gets in there and yanks this.
