Tommy needs your help!

by Roy_Hobbs on Mar 31, 2008 5:12 PM EDT in Boston Celtics News & Links

About a week ago, Jeff posted a link to the "Basketball Bedlam" tournament over at Ball Don't Lie, and asked all of us to help Tommy Heinsohn and his famous "Tommy points" to victory in the first round. With the help of the membership of this blog, Tommy cruised to a come-from-behind victory against David Stern.

It's that time again. Tommy is competing in the second round against the "Where amazing happens" advertising campaign. While it's an interesting ad, we all know it's going to be replaced by the next big thing next year, while Tommy is legendary. Tommy is way behind right now; with 500 votes counted, he's losing 79% to 22% (the computers at BDL can't do math). Let's all do our civic -- and Celtic -- duty and even things out.

Vote here.

He’s up to 29% but that’s still nowhere close… we need more voters! Don’t let to myriad Cs haters get us!

Wait… is “tommyfan” suggesting that those temporary, one-year-wonder ads deserve to be mentioned in the same breath as Tommy?! No, no, no — blasphemy.

Plus, although those ads aren’t bad, they’re all about the background music, which has been around forever. I mean, that song helped get this video 9 million views: http://youtube.com/watch?v=6B26asyGKDo
