Insult to injury? Ford runs MadBum 'day off' ad, annoying Giants fans

Ford Executive 1: Uh-oh. Madison Bumgarner injured himself dirt-biking yesterday. Out for maybe two months.

Ford Executive 2: Run the "day off" commercial. It's topical.

Ford Executive 1: Genius!

If you were watching the Giants get steamrolled by the Rockies on TV over the weekend, you might have noticed a certain Ford ad featuring the recently injured Giants' All-Star pitcher. The spot played frequently during commercial breaks.

"What Madison Bumgarner does on his day off is anyone's guess," the narrator says in the ad, which first aired in 2016.
