Comcast Sam Houston Ads

I do not like the Comcast Sam Houston Ads. Comcast could have come up with a better idea.

In an article I read, recent returnee to Blogopia Slampo weighed in. Two weeks after the passage of Ike, the still cable-less blogger weighed in with this: "[W]hat has us riled is not so much that we're missing Project Runway and can't stay up-to-the-minute on the imminent collapse of the U.S. financial system, but that Comcast has done such a dreadful job of explaining itself to its customers (namely us, for starters). On top of that, since the hurricane passed the company has been airing an appallingly insulting commercial angling for new customers — while it can't even service many of its existing ones! — that desecrates the memory of Sam Houston, our town's namesake and the greatest Texan of all (greater than Willie Nelson, Darrell Royal and your grandma combined)." "Comcast is still a wretched outfit...and that Sam Houston commercial, especially that phony Hollywood-cracker accent they put in his mouth, is unforgivable. " Wow — only Comcast can make a Sam Houston that offends both sides of the Texas-Mexico conflict...
