Destruction Crew #8 and #47

Yesterday Eastern Motors and Gearshift Productions shot a commercial with their newest star, Alex Ovechkin. The shoot, like all of them, was very light hearted. It was also very destructive. There were pucks and footballs flying, stick thrown down, helmets smashed, and even some friendly competition between #8 and #47. Check out the preview of what will surely be an awesome commercial..

A.O. to Star in New Commercial

As we all know, Eastern Motors makes commercials featuring the top athletes in the DC area. Considering the fact that DC is home to the best hockey player in the world, it only makes sense that Easterns would feature him at some point in one of those commercials.  Soon, we will all get to see Washington Capital's Alex Ovechkin singing "At Eastern Motors....Your job's your credit." So prepare yourselves for greatness because the commercial is in the works.  Read more...

Brett Favre Recommends the Smart Car

If you live in a cave there is a small chance that you didn't hear the recent news that Brett Favre retired...again. If you didn't, he is "officially" retiring.

After I heard his name nearly 96,000 times in the one hour episode of Sports Center and reading some of the 46 articles written about him today I started wondering, what kind of car does Favre drive? After about 10 pages of google searches, the best I could come up with was a Chevy Silverado Truck. In that same google search I also found this. Can't you just see him and Jason Fabini cruising home after practice together? 



Now I know that wasn't much of a car commercial but it begs the question, "What would Brett Favre drive if he had done an Easterns commercial instead of a Smart Car commercial?" I decided to ask those close to home what they thought.

Eiman Bassam, Chris Cooley, and Lindsay Czarniak all stuck to the truck theme differing by very minor details. Dan Hellie and Jason Campbell on the other hand thought differently of Favre and went respectively with a Denali and Bentley. So far some pretty generic answers for one of the most prolific passers of all time. So thinking I could get something good, I asked Eastern's founder Robert Bassam what he thought. And although he stuck to the truck theme, least he went big saying Favre was an F650 guy. Which at this point gave me a good laugh because can you see a guy who does a smart car commercial hitting the streets in this?Thinking that if I pursued this further I would keep getting much of the same, "Favre is a bit of a redneck...so a truck." But, I decided to continue the search for Favre's fantasy Eastern's car anyway. I asked Dan Steinberg to give me his take on the matter and unlike those before him, he wasn't too quick to answer. After some advice from his intern and much deliberation he finally said, "A 1993 REDSKINS CHEVY BUBBLE CAPRICE. I wrote about it yesterday. That's what he would drive for sure." I laughed and continued the search. I figured Matt Terl might have something good and even though he went with the country boy truck thing, he said  "A tractor, but with custom rims." A pretty classic answer considering I can definitely see Brett cruising the streets of Ashburn in a Tractor with some 60 inch spinners. 

So now after asking seven people I began writing. I felt like their bright minds had come up with was pretty damn good. I could picture the commercial now. Favre singing the Eastern's tune and each line would cut to a him in a different vehicle beginning with the Smart Car and getting bigger and bigger until finally, he's atop the tractor screaming "YOUR JOB'S YOUR CREDIT!" And then much to my surprise I got a call back from the man himself, Clinton Portis. Since pretty much everything Clinton says is gold, I couldn't wait to hear what he had to say. "I think a Volkswagen Beetle, surf board on top. Just like coach Zorn." And at that instant, my search had ended. If Favre had played for the Skins and done his Eastern's commercial, this is exactly where he would be...him and Zorn both. Drinking milk and driving VW's. Thanks Clinton.  Read more...

Clinton Portis on Easterns New Commercial

Last night after the Redskins preseason game I got a chance to sit down with Clinton Portis to ask him his thoughts on filming the lastest Easterns car commercial.
Me: Could you please tell me a little bit about the commercial shoot?

Clinton: Ya man, I mean your brother (Chris) was pretty much an a**h*** the whole time.

What do you mean?

Well he was trying to make us do all these crazy things, getting me all dirty, goofing around, you know...just being Cooley.
Haha. Ya, I definitely do know. I heard about some of that and that you guys all had on short shorts before it was all over with.

Cooley was the only one with the shorts to begin with but the thing is, those shorts were too small and our thighs are too big. So instead of trying to sag 'em we just rolled them up to look like your brother.

What about Jason?

Jason is just goofy. I think he just hiked his up to try to fit in with the rest of us but he had fun with it.

In the pictures of you guys, it looked like you were spraying shaving cream all over each other. Who started that?

I was the one who grabbed it and then I ended up getting the most dirty. I don't know how cause I'm the oldest and all of them thought they had to get me.

You're the oldest?

I have the most years in the league. I guess they don't respect that. They just got me dirty and messed up my clothes.

Man that sucks. So I guess my last question is, did you have a good time with it all?

Ya, anytime you get to hang out with a bunch of guys doing that sort of stuff its fun. We all had a good time and the video should turn out man I'm excited for it. The last video we did was fun too so hopefully this one is even better.
