J-Roll Would Like You To See The Simpsons Movie

A commenter posted this ad for baseball's All-Star Game yesterday, and it's worth watching. It's a pretty cute ad, with the baseball players riding San Francisco's cable cars. At about the 30 second mark, it gets good. Ryan Howard and Chase Utley laugh maniacally as the cable car nearly kills a marching band, and then Jimmy Rollins randomly eats a donut, mimicking an ad for the Simpsons movie. Coincidentally, Jimmy Rollins will be home eating donuts during the All-Star Break this year.

I like Rollins. I don't think he's a good fielder, but I don't think that matters--he's improved tremendously at the plate, and even though he doesn't walk much his power more than makes up for it. I use to not be a huge Rollins fan, too, but I am now.

A Giambi sighting? In an All-Star ad? Wow, the internal-investigation-irony.
