Second that emotion

Posted by Eric Wilbur, Boston.com Staff April 23, 2008 10:04 AM

I really can't get enough of Dustin Pedroia in these awful Sullivan Tire commercials. This is easily the best of the lot though. I don't know how he conveys such emotion in his acting when Jim Rice walks on the scene. It's like you're there with him, and really, you can't believe it's Jim Rice either. That's a special talent. Truly special.

  1. Yea this defiantly the best so far. Now we know why he is a baseball player for he Red Sox not an actor.

  1. The hair on the Sullivan guy is even SCARIER than the acting...

  1. I'm not sure what's scarier, Pedroia's acting or Sullivan's hair.

  1. these sullivan tire ads have GOT to be bad on purpose.... who, in their right mind, would watch these commercials after filming and say, "yeah, that's good enough for TV and I'm not embarrassed about it"?
    of course, i could be totally off base -- if so, God help those poor souls at sullivan

  1. It's a terrific strategy! "Did you see that awful SULLIVAN TIRE commercial?" "Pedroia is horrible in that SULLIVAN TIRE commercial!"

    Hmm... that reminds me - I need some new tires....

  1. I love it! I crack up every time I see it! I didn't think anyone could top Tito's commercial last season =
    "You always get me there Paul" with the lame swing with a wiffle ball bat lol.

    It's great, but I do miss the Wakefield vs. Orsillo commercials though, those were funny!
