The Victors

To everyone saying it’s MAGA coded, you think that because you’re old. It’s clearly a play on Obsession which has been what everyone has been using for viral marketing this summer. Get hip boomers.*

Back to the board

Thread:

• The GoodGood/Callaway ad was in poor taste but the overreaction is insane. Costco pulled all their Callaway products, Dicks severed all ties with GoodGood, they had to postpone the Big Break season premiere, talk of them losing their PGA event sponsorship.* - By WOK August 25, 2026 at 10:49:33 PM
  • Target apparently got in trouble for selling a minstrel-style clown costume ... - By Cutter August 26, 2026 at 07:23:20 AM
  • I think the initial reaction by Good Good to the controversy has fueled the fire - By syrfan August 26, 2026 at 05:09:28 AM
  • have the ‘funny’ idea, fine. Make the video, ok. Watch the video and not notice the DV issue, eek. Air the ad, wait one second. - By plug August 26, 2026 at 03:48:08 AM

    • I doubt anything was intentionally coded, but it's definitely tone deaf as fuck. That imagery and tone absolutely brings to mind the scene of a wifebeater blaming the victim. Why do you make me hit you???* - By jjwalker August 26, 2026 at 12:29:19 AM
    • You've done ur job cooking WOK, you got more posts on the board after 9pm EDT than 90% of offseason days, good work* - By Daytripper August 25, 2026 at 11:44:57 PM
  • Agree it was the same taste of the Betty white snickers Super Bowl ad where she got laid out** - By Onwolverine August 25, 2026 at 11:24:32 PM
  • the ad is for young Maga men who hate women. The pushback is justified and welcome. ** - By Mark August 25, 2026 at 11:15:54 PM
    • Oh barf. It was obviously OMG this driver is so awespme.you wont let anyone, not even your wife, touch it." Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar. - By Alpo August 26, 2026 at 12:20:25 AM
  • Just watched the ad. I thought Johnny went back to the bag I thought he was going to kill her - By chiwalker August 25, 2026 at 11:11:48 PM
    • MAGA is 35% and you guys see it everywhere* - By Daytripper August 25, 2026 at 11:14:28 PM
      • Yeah, it's only 1/3rd of the country living it on a day to day basis - and the dominant political movement of the last 50 years, led by the man who has more power than anyone in human history. That's all.* - By jjwalker August 26, 2026 at 01:15:04 AM
  • Hadn't heard of it or them but just watched and mostly just thought it was weird, douchey and really stupid* - By LewisBullox August 25, 2026 at 11:08:17 PM
  • absolutely disagree. The ad seemed fine to all the maga frat bros who are their target age 18-34 target demographic, which proves the entire point of the criticism. - By Beave August 25, 2026 at 11:02:21 PM
    • bro it's bad physical comedy not some advert for "go hit your gf", only people too online pilled want to go on some slippery slope here. But, Trump is POTUS - By Daytripper August 25, 2026 at 11:04:31 PM
      • I think him standing over her would be triggering. It triggered me* - By chiwalker August 25, 2026 at 11:14:16 PM
        • That did kick it up a notch from dumb to creepy. Anyway more just successfully stirring the culture war pot.* - By LewisBullox August 25, 2026 at 11:19:48 PM
          • I mean the ad is really shitty because it would have been fun and "just part of the group" if she got up and hit one 280 down the middle with the fucking product after the stupid "POV" tackle (also weird). The ad stinks. It's not some great referendum* - By Daytripper August 25, 2026 at 11:26:50 PM
            • Yeah I just mean it sounds like it's turning into some big thing. Outage over it and then there will be counter outrage yadda yadda* - By LewisBullox August 25, 2026 at 11:35:37 PM
              • rage bait sells* - By Daytripper August 25, 2026 at 11:37:25 PM
                • For sure* - By LewisBullox August 25, 2026 at 11:38:48 PM
      • Lol at slippery slope. I dont know man, I think they already slipped down the entire slope.* - By mattb August 25, 2026 at 11:14:13 PM
      • You're part of the problem. Keep pretending everything is a one off happening in a vacuum. I'm so glad we're back in the 60's and 70's when you and the shitty maga men can act like hitting your wife is funny. - By Beave August 25, 2026 at 11:09:03 PM
        • never vote for GOP in my life and you go to the mattreses because I don't think some 15 second ad is the end of the world. get a fucking grip, misogny produced trump, not the other way around* - By Daytripper August 25, 2026 at 11:09:46 PM
          • Respectfully, men not holding other men accountable for misogyny enabled Trump. All of the men who claim to support and love women who excuse this sort of behavior. - By Beave August 25, 2026 at 11:18:41 PM
            • fair enough, cheers* - By Daytripper August 25, 2026 at 11:24:18 PM
      • the ad was weird an offensive. The reaction poor and criticism earned. * - By Cincywolve August 25, 2026 at 11:06:59 PM
        • great iambic, reads so well. your take much better than leave beave* - By Daytripper August 25, 2026 at 11:09:03 PM
  • agree* - By Daytripper August 25, 2026 at 10:56:59 PM
  • Apparently beating women is frowned upon . Who could have guessed * - By Cincywolve August 25, 2026 at 10:56:41 PM
  • Meh. I think the reaction is appropriate. "Poor taste" is putting it lightly. It was an incredibly stupid and frankly maga coded ad. They can go fuck themselves imo.* - By mattb August 25, 2026 at 10:54:39 PM
