Funny commercials on WIP

Have you guys heard the Phantoms commercial with the rip-rocking rock song that goes "Phantoms hockey.....LETS PLAY!"
Did you catch the Temple one awhile back? "Fran-tastic/Fran-tastic/you've never seen fans so enthusiastic/Temple basketball is (it's?)..Fran-tastic"
Do the on-air personalities still have their jingles? "Turn up the radio for information you should know the signal that we're sendin' comes from 7 to 11/come up now/with the knowhow/it's yur good pal/Glen Macnow" or "He's the maaannnn/Big Daddy Graham"

I forgot to comment on how the Phantoms "Let's play" sounds like the New KKK. "Stamps!"

Here is what you are missing:
"Adjusting your credit score and more United Credit
Adjusters"

The Of Montreal rip-off Outback jingle makes numerous
appearances on WIP.

"If you like sizzling steaks, then you might enjoy the
offerings at Outback.."

Also, ever heard the Ruben Frank promo?
"He won't trash my man Iverson or talk smack on
McNabb, he's good, he's fun, It's my man Ruben Frank."
-Matt White

I love that United Credit Adjusters tune. By the way, what is the "and more?" They adjust your credit score. I get that. What else do they do? Practice identity theft, maybe? Man, what to get is weighing heavy on my mind. There's a answer, don't worry.

Re: Jody Mc
I'm pretty sure he wasn't booted. I think it was a money dispute. He wanted Howard money and management wouldn't pay. I could be wrong. It was awhile ago.

That's a regular toolshed over at WPEN. Have you ever listened? I never do. I should tune in.
Did you see that one tool on there, Jamie Mal Yinkle Yankle? He's part of the 700 Level Sports Fanatics (awesome name! talkin' trash and takin' names!)team. Check out these nuggets from his bio: "Always in search of a new challenge, Jamie’s extensive background includes time spent as one of four national finalists in the “1996 Pepsi Dick Vitale SoundAlike Contest” and as a member of President Bush’s 2005 Inaugural Committee." I'm sure he knows his shit.
