Nike commercial
Anyone seen the Nike commercial. They did in 62 seconds what ASA should have done before the olympic vote killing softball. Perhaps the greatest video and political statement ever.

I liked it, and it was pretty good, though I don't know about greatest statement ever. (If you missed it, the tagline was something like, "We'll take softball. You [the world] can take everything else.")



I also love the Nike one set to the Killers song. A great choice of music.

Yeah the video really outshines the Gettysburg Address and JFK's "Ask not" speech.

Consider the source. He reminds me of the coach SteveM had to deal with a couple years ago. Doesn't know a damn thing and proves it every time he opens his mouth.
