Somehow I missed this whole meme on the NBA's classic "Where Amazing Happens" commercial. A cursory glance at YouTube reveals that seamheaded takes on the ad have already featured the Brewers '08 playoff run, the storied tenure of Shea Stadium and even the woeful Pittsburgh Pirates.

Still, I have to say that I enjoyed this Blue Jays' edition that just hit the Interwebs. Seeing shots of Cito Gaston, Travis Snider Adam Lind and Joe Carter (circa '93) set to that piano music makes me feel about 1,000x more optimistic about the '09 Jays than I should. It also serves as a nice pick-me-up on a slow January day.

Great video on a slow day...

Add a bit more reality in there by showing a pic of Gonzo at the Winter Meetings; "Where nothing happens."

Argh, I just can't get excited about 2009, and maybe that's a good thing. Maybe with so little expectation Cito will get us off to a good start. Bah.. now I'm getting excited... damn you! :lol:

Agreed. Aim low and avoid disappointment.
