Phil's New Commercial for Mizzen+Main

[rawdog]

Phil is an interesting dude. Seems like he has a good sense of humor, although the execution of that spot is tad awkward LOL

 

The Crown Plaza commercials back in the day were really good, FWIW.

 

[Ferguson]

And I am the a-hole.

 

Yep.

[MidwestGolfBum]

How much money did they give him to embarass himself so much...

 

Well, from what I remember it was a pretty big endorsement check and an equity stake in the company. That, and I don't know that Phil really cares what anybody thinks of him anymore.

[ebrasmus21]

And I am the a-hole.

 

Yep.

 

Almost has the feeling that Phil did this just to get at you, Ferg.

[MidwestGolfBum]

And I am the a-hole.

 

Yep.

 

Ferg, I mean this in the nicest possible way, but it's not that you aren't, but I find your version of being an a-hole much more enjoyable.

[mosesgolf]

Well that’s one shirt I’m not buying. :D

Call it reverse marketing to drive away customers.

[dciccoritti]

Only MAJ could have pulled this off.

[DixieD]

He has just got another fan here. In a world of seriousness we need the odd laugh, go Phil!

RYDER CUP CELEBRATION COMING SOON

 

[cardoustie]

It's like a car wreck or Eastbound and Down

 

You can't look away

[adam667220]

Googled the full video since embedded links don't load for me. The SI article I happened to look at had a pretty good summary of it:

 

Have you ever seen something so unbelievably ridiculous and absurd that you couldn't look away no matter how much it killed you on the inside to keep watching?

If your answer to that question is no, the folks at Mizzen+Main have a commercial for you.

This is awesome! You just need Boo in the background!

[manku]

I thought it was pretty funny...clearly Phil is poking fun at himself. He's always been a dork...only in the world of golf would someone like Phil be considered cool.

 

We're talking about the shirts and brand...so that can only be a good thing.

 

Doesn't make me want to buy a shirt from them though...the only workout I'm ever doing in a button down is lifting a 22 ounce mug of beer!

When I asked Phil about his clothing line at Carnoustie, he got me to feel his shirt. I felt his shirt. It felt f****** awesome. Now I see him doing this dancing in that shirt I felt and I’m less sure I want one.

sadly, boo won't be making the team this year.

Phil is trolling Ferg.

[Wooderson]

I haven't laughed that hard in a while. The biggest take away I have from this is that some of you are dull people. Its ok to let loose sometimes.

hey, Phil plays real sports....he's not trying to get good at exercising.

[DavePelz4]

What's wrong with seeing a middle age guy with minimal rhythm attempting to choreograph his movements to the music inspiring him?

 

Mrs. Pelz sees that at every wedding when they play "Celebration."

 

Oh yeah, the lack of rhythm makes her laugh. Got it.

I still can't stand the workday commercial with DLIII and Kuchar singing about honesty. I cringe every time it comes on and they play it A LOT. This Phil one is so bad it's almost good. Makes me realize however when they show the Ryder Cup team and all the guys hanging out smoking cigars and drinking champagne that they are all probably just a bunch of dorks you wouldn't really want to hang out with in the first place...

[IVM]

I guess he has a sense of humor !

[wrmiller]

LMAO!! Go get 'em Phil. :D

[lowheel]

And I am the a-hole.

 

Yep.

 

Yes, yes you are ;).

[MattyO1984]

This is like one of those movies that are both awesome and horrendous all at the same time!

 

Good on Phil for giving it a go. It was going to take something to put the US Open saga behind him, this might just do it.

 

Can anyone imagine Tiger's reaction when he say it?

[Jagpilotohio]

Awesome! Phil smiling and dancing all the way to the bank to cash another big check.

[OldTomMorris]

Its awful but I'm sure thats the intention as it will get noticed that way.

[The Mad Bomber]

What did I just watch?

 

SOMETHING AMAZEBALLS

 

 

 

 

 

Put me down on the side that absolutely loves this. If I have to watch one more GX7 add, I'll puke. But this? I could watch all day lol

[TheGulag]

So..... Its so bad its good is what I'm gathering from this video. Like 3 rights make a left, but with a high kicking, finger waving, worm dance moving Phil..... Interesting
