A chance to destroy the Fox NFL robot

All of us are familiar with the annoying Fox NFL Robot. He usually comes out of the left corner of your screen to do some calisthenics during a critical drive. Why a robot has to stretch out is beyond me, but whatever.

Despite the intense animosity on the Web directed at the robot, Fox actually has plans to release an NFL Robot doll action figure in November. Yes, you read that right. Let's give you the details.
This 10 inch posable PVC plastic action figure features the highest quality and greatest attention to detail available in an action figure. The FOX NFL Robot utilizes its fully articulating joints to evade defenders and score touchdowns. A must-have piece for every sport fanatic's collection.
It can evade defenders? I guess my Lego men are going to have a hard time taking this robot down.

The robot costs $19.95, suggesting it might not actually be made of the highest quality and that it's probably a foolish buy. But still, paying $20 bucks to watch this thing melt in the microwave would probably be $20 well spent.

[Warning: Destroying robot doll may not get robot to vanish from your TV screen]

My son asked me during pregame of the seahawks broadcast if he could get one of "those coole robots we see every sunday." i shit you not.

At some point I developed the ability to block out pop-up ads while watching sporting events. My 3 year old daughter hasn't yet. I had the games on yesterday and she was doing some coloring. A loud noise comes on the tv and she looks up, giggles and says, "look at the robot". I look at the robot by I don't giggle. Fucking robots.

Why does a robot have to stretch? I ask myself this question every Sunday...

I HATE this robot--it's scary, especially when they dress it up for Halloween.

While i share in the hatred for the Foxbot, I reserve my disdain for the Turkeybot that disgraces my Thanksgiving Day football viewing.

Can you say "Sorry attempt to piggy-back the success of the Transformer market?"

Fox is yet again stooping to another low!

First of all it is an AUTOMATRON! Second of all, clearly it has to stretch out or else its joint will malfunction!

Jarrett said...

Look around the league at the pethora of injuries, and tell me you don't want the robot to warm up appropriately...

I wonder if it can catch my new football-shaped snack dish that plays the FOX NFL Sunday theme song...

I immensely enjoyed the Fox 25 ROBOT during our regular season and I hope they keep him as a ‘mascot’ for the NFL. For all you anti-Robot folks, relax, it’s an R-O-B-O-T … he’s fun, he’s energetic, he’s tough and he’s jazzed to play some ball, so just relax and let him! It’s a great icon! Stop taking yourselves so seriously! Life is good!

I’m totally in love with the robot. He’s soooo cool. FOX did a great job with him over the holidays. I wonder…, what will he look like for New Years? I too, am trying to find a picture of him, that’s how I found this site. I’d really like to have an action figure of him.

Man, you are right, pumpkin-head robot for sure….
I must have got a little excited. Still, I am still looking for a pic of that robot. I’m desperate for that goddamn robot.

Anonymous said...

Give me 22 of them (11 offense/11 defense).
If Ro-Bo isn’t already the star of an online game, he will be, and I’ll be playing. If you ever played Electric or Talking Football how could you not love the evolution. What the hell its doing on the Fox NFL pre-game show I have no idea…but its great exposure…I just hope its “pre-game” exposure. Where can I get my own team?

I love the robot!
I used an image of him to show off our NFL schedule.

That NFL robot is hella funny!! You gotta have a sense of humar to like it tho! They should keep it going.

Quit hating!

I believe this is a great rendition of a futuristic football player.

I do believe its time to update the moves of the "FOXbot".

The seasons this robot has been on has made me and a few other grown men want one as a collectors item not to sit back and play with.

If a person finds this action figure annoying, or don't see beyond what the robot maybe representing has no sense of humor, and definitley a clsoed mind.

Lighten up folks its just television, DAMN!!!

When I saw that dopey robot doing warmup exercises,deep knee bends and running back and forth,I laughed like hell. I hate to say it, but the robot was the best part of the entire day's broadcast. I'm going to buy the poster and the plastic model.
(ps) I'm 78!

I'm glad someone hates the robot as much as I do. My friends loves it! 3 words-Di-gust-ing!

Anonymous said...

Does anyone know what the robots name is???

Anonymous said...

I love it. I ended here while looking to download the whole warm up routine it does while on program break. Anyone know where I can find it?

Anonymous said...

How do I find pics or clips of the bot????

Anonymous said...

Was anyone else laughing when the Fox robot got owned by the Terminator in those Super Bowl ads?

Hating a robot? That's a pretty lame pursuit. He is just for fun! Maybe you should spend some time hating things that matter. Looking for something to hate? Try hating social injustices or something. Now excuse me, I must now commence to stretching and pointing my finger around and crackin my neck, its my morning workout now. Get Some!

My 8 turning 9 year old son just got the Fox Robot action figure for his birthday-he absolutely loves it! I think it's very cool too. It's extremely heavy duty and made very well. I think it's great for the kids. My son said it's like bumblebee from the Transformers movie morphed with Tom Brady(his heroe).

Maybe FOX could put the robot up as John McCains running mate, I bet that he's smarter than Sarah Palin. And since Fox picks the candidates anyway, why not puttheir own in there.
HAHA!!!

Wish i could download the robot and have it as a screen saver! Love it

What the fuck does a fucking robot have to do with football. It is annoying as all hell. It was hitting fucking baseballs last week. Why? Who the fuck knows but it sucks. I want to kill it.

Anonymous said...

The robot is ghetto. But he does accurately depict the character of so many NFL players. All they need to do is put some "bling" around his neck and on his fingers.
