Hearing a bizarre public service announcement
Ditka Is Here to Help With 'Toilet-Related Issues'
Coach Ditka's career has taken surprising twists and turns since leading the '99 Saints* to a three-win season: he stole scenes from Will Ferrell on the silver screen, he heatedly debates with Michael Irvin on ESPN and now he's doing faux public service announcements for Scott toilet paper. My favorite quote from the short video:
"Clogged toilets are the reality of owning a home, gang!"
This is all part of a larger Super Bowl-related effort from Scott called the Halftime Flush which is intent on selling toilet paper and preventing clogged toilets:
"More than 350 million gallons of water will flush through our toilets as an estimated 90 million people use their facilities [during halftime of the Super Bowl]. That amount of flushing equals seven minutes of water flowing over the Niagara Falls. No wonder that unexpected – and unwanted – clogged toilets will occur in bathrooms everywhere."

* Jake Delhomme was actually the third-string QB on that team behind Billy Joe Tolliver and Billy Joe Hobert.
