Your ad is so terrible and ill conceived that I feel compelled to post just to get it off the top of the blog.
I can only speculate that you, along with the makers of this other nominee for most irritating Web ad ever (as seen here in the wild), are perhaps carrying out a secret program to create ads so diabolically irritating that it will bring about the end of animated Web advertising as we know it, including but not limited to ads that expand when your mouse arrow happens to drift nearby, float in from the top or side of the screen, follow as you scroll down a page, challenge you to catch and/or shoot something, invite you to answer absurdly easy celebrity trivia on a background of colors that go beyond clashing and into Napoleonic warfare, make sounds of any kind, or make the corner of a page look like it's curling, on the theory that gee, there sure must be something interesting hiding back there.
Warning: Do not look directly at the other nominee for most irritating Web ad ever for too long. If you experience bleeding, seek medical attention immediately.
Token mention of my fantasy baseball team: Please have a good day, Jake Peavy and John Lackey and Scott Kazmir and C.C. Sabathia and Rich Hill and Cole Hamels and to a lesser extent Tim Lincecum, who was invited to the party but unfortunately couldn't attend.

Interesting set of stats for our league leader today (May 11, 2007):

yahoo.com/b1/52046/1?date=2007-05-11
GlobalBDubyas (1) had 7 starters going that day;
(2) saw its collective staff give up 8 HRs, but get 42 Ks, 3 Ws and 1 Sv;
(3) winced as team Godfather (fortunately for us) benched Tim Lincecum (7.0 - 1 - 0 - 1 - 6 - 2.57 - 1.14 ) in favor of blow-ups by Rich Hill, CC Sabathia and so-so performance by Scott Kazmir;
(4) traded John Lackey and Bobby Jenks (effective Sunday), but not before they got a W and a Sv Friday;
(5) saw Jake Peavy and Cole Hamels (again) pitch like Cy Young reincarnate (Peavy is first pitcher in 107 years to have 4 games in a row with 10 or more Ks in 7 innings or less! per Baseball Tonight or in the Morning); and
(6) hitters (using the term loosely) tanked with just 5/34 = .147 BA + 1 HR (6 of 10 went Oh-fer)and let a badly trailing Robby the Robot back into the match-up (5-7 now).
Saturday morning stats watch over.
