A Visual Success
I think this a great and comical commercial! The message is crystal clear. It simply implies it is better to be anything else other than a Red Sox fan.
Dads are suppose to be supportive with their sons no matter what. In the video the dad is explaining his feelings about his younger son. He wishes his son could be more like his older son who happens to be very flamboyant; something most dad would dread. Not this dad, as a true Yankees fan, he knows it's far worst to be a Red Sox fan.
A Visual Miscue
I also find this commercial to be humorous but, this video is implying that Yankees fans don't like Red Sox fans and don't want to work with them. I don't believe is to be true at all. I work with three Red Sox fans and have nothing against them, why would I, we have twenty more World Series! On the contrary, no Boston fan has ever gotten pick-on in New York City quite as much as Yankees fans do out there in Boston. Not only have I witnessed it first hand but many others have seen this also and agree 100% with me. So with that being said, I believe this commercial is backwards and therefore miscued.
