About a year ago, I offered up a hug to Liz Kelly at the Washington Post for finding the old Jhoon Rhee commerical. Those of us who grew up in DC loved this commercial, and the (at least) decade old run it had on local TV. One of our friends, the Editor, over at Sanford Soccer Net promised to hug us tightly if we ever found the old TheaterVision ad with Joe Jacoby and Mark May. We looked, couldn't find it, and forgot about.
Then we were reading over at Mister Irrevelant that a bunch of Washington players are in their first year of eligibility for the Hall of Fame. They are focused on the very HOFer like Darrell Green, who should clearly be in the Fame ASAP. But they also mention Jacoby and May, and I was inspired to search again. Jesus was clearly on my side today. I believe Jacoby and May deserve to be in the HOF (and Heaven too when the time comes, Jesus) simply for this commercial alone. Anything that creates this much joy should be worthy of recognition.
So here you are, Sanford and fellow children of the DC Area. Reminiscence, for real. (Also, Sanford, don't be all like Kyle and try to get out of our deal. We HAD A DEAL, KYLE)
Enjoy.

I have to forward this to my Rockville coworkers! Funny shiz BBM.
I never realized just how gay Jacoby really was. I mean, I know he was the inspiration for the Hogs in dresses, but goddamn him and that flaming hot lisp!
You are a credit to Skins fans everywhere.
Can I flag Miwacar for homophobia? How about illegal contact?
