David Wright- This is SportsCenter

[AETITANS2012]

no no no no, lobbys no good...he'll look there hahaha

[butteredbread100]

has anyone noticed that any commercial that features a certain person is always exactly 31 seconds long?

[n8dogg87]

@butteredbread100 It's... it's a commercial. They all have to be a certain length so broadcasters know how many to fit into a break.

[ChuckmasterFlex]

@butteredbread100 Most commercials are formatted into 30 or 60 seconds, for network programming purposes. Anything longer is segmented in sections of 30 seconds, for continuity.

[FlashyLifeTV]

Howard, Willis: Come to Philly Wright. Wright: I Will, this summer... ;)

[SonDimz]

I BANGED NEIL EVEREETS WIFE

[biggabow5]

but this has virtually nothing to do with baseball, so the top comment is kinda wrong. Its simply a hatred for the demon deacon from a busted bracket years ago when wake forest got beat

[KCspur92]

For those who dont get it:

David Wright was a HUGE college basketball fan. He made brackets for march madness every year and had Wake Forest winning it, who was No. 1 in the AP in 1995. But in that year, Wake Forest was upset by Oklahoma state in the Sweet 16, throwing off David's bracket. So, since that year, David has hated Wake Forest. The "Demon Deacon" is the Wake Forest mascot, who is reading the paper in the video.

You're welcome sports newbs.

[landesal]

@KCspur92 sports newbs? who the fuck would remember this?

[KCspur92]

@landesal huge sports fanatics

[Bosnianxx]

@KCspur92 you mean people with no life

[KCspur92]

@Bosnianxx basically

[QBDogKiller]

@Bosnianxx LMAO



[TheWindLancer]

Guys give him a break he has to play for the Mets- not exactly a dream job.

[whiteonrice506]

If you don't know why the Demon Deacon is there, you aren't a baseball fan.

[senorchipotle]

@whiteonrice506 apparently you don't either. nobody's asking for a dumbass remark, just wondering why the deacon's there.

[whiteonrice506]

@senorchipotle The only dumbass remark I see is yours. Apparently I don't know who the demon deacon is? If you know why he is there, you ARE NOT a baseball fan. Please use some intelligence next time you post, but don't hurt yourself in the process.

[senorchipotle]

@whiteonrice506 ... you're a moron. nothing further to add. 

[Mrxander93]

@whiteonrice506 You do realize that the Demon Deacon is a College Football mascot, right?

[ITKerp]

why is the demon deacon in there?

[MickJones]

Why the Demon Deacon though?

[Grin8]

I thought it was a more deeper meaning than a meeting at the mound... lol it's still funny.

[richikawa25]

I dont even think you have to watch baseball its just common sense morons!!! lol

[kwhit009]

@richikawa25 no it really ain't...I'm a dumb as a rock on this one...

[titantrevor1]

how come a huge majority of these commercials are 16 secs long or 31?

[RodDaRIPPA]

I don't get it!

[YanksBostonMets]

@RodDaRIPPA They don't want the peanut guy involved...don't you see them covering there mouths while talking?

[sabyome]

@RodDaRIPPA when the catcher comes out to talk with the pitcher, they talk secretly in their gloves so no one can hear them or read their lips.

[Italiaxfinestt10]

hahahahaha i love these commercials

[wgbaseball2]

You definitely have to watch or play Baseball to understand this. I'm a catcher so I do this all the time with my pitcher.

[flodaddydizzle]

press 4 a bunch

[pokeyjokekid]

You have to watch baseball to get this commercial

[SunMoonStars1111]

@pokeyjokekid Yeah that's only what 40 other people have said.

[KicksonFire392]

i watch baseball all the time. but i have no idea what this is. Then again, i fucking hate the met's and have no affiliation with them at all so...

[Epimpin101]

@KicksonFire392 thats how baseball players talk when they go to the mound, so the other team can't read there lips, in this commercial they don't want the mascot to come hang out with them.

[Lafiro93]

@KicksonFire392 your a dumbass if you don't understand this comm. and you watch baseball all the time -____-

[MultiShululu]

look att 0:16, why does he have booner?

[dgood138]

@MultiShululu it's called a cup

[SunMoonStars1111]

@MultiShululu It's a cup, dumbshit.

[PxPYoon]

@SunMoonStars1111 Yea, cause you never know if your balls get knocked on a sportscenter commercial...

[SonDimz]

[joebriggs7]

Wright always strikes out in the clutch

[captinofwhat]

Press 3 to hear a fart

[artymowycz]

he does have ears

[RdSoxFan618]

I think it's multiple jokes - not only is it the "put your glove up to your face when you talk" for pitchers, but I think it's also joking about how creepy-looking (and subsequently "acting") the Demon Deacon is.

[zioz99]

i understand what theyre doing, talking like theyre on the mound. but whats the significance of the demon deacon? hahaha

[Gstark9]

@zioz99 i think its because he dislikes wake forest since hes from virginia?

[zioz99]

@Gstark9 ahhhh that makes sense

[omedog75]

@Gstark9 and Van Pelt is from Maryland



[Shredmastr514]

[Bmathiowetz1]

this is the only way the mets get fans. make funny commercials. it sure isn't their playing

[PKFlashOmega]

@Bmathiowetz1 Actually, the Mets make some pretty funny stuff happen on the field too. That's what attracted me.

[WoodyRamesses]

David Wright would bounce back this year than 2009.

[100spurs]

i dont get this

[Dmanu22]

@100spurs If you watch baseball, you should get this.

[xxxTHEMAN7xxx]

@Dmanu22 I don't get it. Explain please...?

[johnnycajxrt]

@xxxTHEMAN7xxx whenever there's a conversation on the mound. The players usually cover their mouth with their glove so no one can read their lips. hope you understand now

[xxxTHEMAN7xxx]

@johnnycajxrt Gotcha, thanks.

[baseballfinatic8]

honestly i watched this several times and i still dont get it
