*AMMENDED: Due to numerous requests, we are allowing all media outlets to carry the parody ads featuring Ron Jeremy in their entirety.
It has been said that politics makes strange bedfellows, but none are stranger than the combination of Senator Orrin Hatch, Representative Joe Barton, and film star Ron Jeremy, each of whom has recently contributed to collegefootballplayoff.org’
CFP is a new social network dedicated to uniting fans from all universities, backgrounds and political persuasions in the fight against the biased and unfair BCS system. Through articles, forums, contests, and sale items (including giant foam middle fingers emblazoned “F the B*S”), CFP offers site members interactive opportunities to voice their frustrations about the current system and promote their specific desires about a playoff.
Congressmen Hatch and Barton have granted CFP exclusive interviews about the inequities of the BCS and their respective efforts to push for a playoff. Previously, Senator Hatch has contended that “under a fairer system, revenue distribution and berths in the most lucrative and prestigious bowl games would be determined on the field, not by pre-existing agreements.”
Similarly, Rep. Barton, in his November 9 interview with CFP, pointed out his frustrations with the BCS system: “When the 120 football teams start practicing during the summer – most are eliminated before the first snap, no matter how good of a season they have. It is a sad reality, but only a handful of teams actually have a chance of hoisting that crystal football trophy at the end of the season.”
CFP’s first videos featuring Ron Jeremy promoting a college football playoff were recently unveiled. As the winner of CFP’s 1st Annual “Most Incredible Man in the World,” Mr. Jeremy stars in a series of ads that parody Dos Equis’ “Most Interesting Man in the World”.
The first in the series of videos can be seen on the CFP’s Home page, at http://www.collegefootballplayoff.org. Additional videos can be seen on CFP’s Premium Content page, freely accessible to site members.
Congressmen Hatch and Barton were also among CFP’s initial list of influential people who have (or can) affect change on the BCS. Others include actor Will Ferrell, Florida quarterback Tim Tebow, and talk show host Stephen Colbert. CFP’s “50 Most Incredible People” is also available for viewing on the site’s Premium Content page.
