'Ocean Spray' blew it


They had a long series of funny commercials with the two farmers standing out in the cranberry bog with silly visual aids.

Now they've been replaced by a beautiful middle-aged actress playing a soccer mom.

Bo. Ring.

- Crazy. All crazy but I'm.

Those two guys in waders are probably not gone forever. I won't be surprised if we see them again. Yep, it probably was a bad decision emanating from the O.S. executive suite aka the front office.

Perhaps all is not lost; I just saw a commercial for Ocean Spray 'Craisins' with the two farmers.

Agreement

Justin's Grandfather
keeps picking on him
--which diminishes
from Grandfatherly wisdom
because Justin works
harder than Granddad
and gets cut down to size
in a bog full of cranberries
and up to his thighs
in wading boots

What kind of dysfunctional family
does stuff like that
to a Television Commercial star
--and one who
actually listens
to cranky old snarly Granddad
--and makes a career of that
when he could draw in crowds
on stage
and without the wading boots

Ocean Spray really did blow that one
by taking off the obedient Justin
and forcing that squeaky blonde
onto armchairs everywhere
what kind of bad business is that

When you do all of that hard work
for the cranky crabby snarly Granddad
on the capitalist side of the family
and then get punished
all the way around
just because
they have to hire an annoying blonde
to replace real Americans everywhere
just like Applebees

Didn't used to pass up
on Ocean Spray cranberry stuff
but now
the tables have been turned
in honor of poor Justin
who never does anybodies any harm
but gets punished for it
all the way around
--by those Ocean Spray trolls

And besides
where on earth
is any ocean
near those cranberry bogs
because cranberries
and any other kind of berries
cannot grow in an ocean

Even Justin knows that much
but not that cranky Granddad
and certainly not that annoying blonde

--Just goes to show
No justice in Ocean Spraybog
