Agency.com Pulls Out!
...leaves blogosphere mostly unsatisfied.
David Armano alerts us to Agency.com pulling out of the Subway pitch before they even really got started.
A representative of the Omnicom Group agency here said it withdrew from consideration when it reached the finals of a pitch for a conflicting account, which he declined to name. Subway's account selection process was taking longer than anticipated, and Agency.com decided to take itself out of the running, he said.
So, here's my advice for agency.com. Pull the ballsiest of all ballsy moves and do the same damn thing again, but this time follow Karl's rules, don't act like dicks (leave the fist bumps for the frat boys), and make your blog a conversation, not a link receptacle.
If they do this, I will forever bow in submission.
I can't believe you wrote "pulls out", "ballsy", "bowing down", "dicks", and "receptacle" all in in post. This is a pornographic masterpiece Paul.

LOL, I'm not sure how much of a podcast I could get out of this one. One can only make so many jokes about balls before it becomes tiresome. :)

Nice one Paul, nothing like a nice post full of euphamism. I also love the Office Space photo showing your 'Oh face' :-)
