OT: Amazing Nike ad for World Cup

Now I know a lot of you yanks aren’t into soccer ball… but this Nike ad fo rthe worldcup has got me pretty pumped…

Rooney is amazing in it surely?

I know I know… football is commercial yadayaya. this is an amazing campaign i reckon.

Ice Hockey > all

Saw this ad…and then folks wonder why soccer is #1 the world over…no other sport can evoke such passion.

Awesome ad…Rooney’s bit is the best. Cannot wait for this to kick off in my own backyard…the best WC ever kicks off at Soccer City on June 11.

Nice!! Soccer is the only organized sport I ever played in school. Personally I can’t wait for the Tour de France to start. Wonder of this will be the year they figure out what miracle drug Lance is on?

Can’t argue this one

Ah man that advert is amazing…

Love it when Ronalado ‘nutmegs’ Homer … (my American cousins may want to look it up).

Arguing about sports is pretty retarded but the FIFA World Cup is the greatest spectacle on Earth.:smiley:

“Ice Hockey > all”

The play offs have been pretty intense thats for sure, my boys (Sharks) just lost though… :-/ Good game none the less.

when’s the next “world series” of ice hockey?
NZ is in the world cup for the first time since 1982! we’ll get dicked in the first game but good effort lads. believe it or not there 4x as many football players as rugby players here ay.

EXCELLENT Ad.

I went to see a Calgary Flames game when I was in Canada and i did like it… it’s like football on ice :stuck_out_tongue:

I still believe some countries have certain stuff in their genes.

NZ has got Rugby, the dutch have K-1. :wink:

Remy Bonjaski!

The problem I have with these “epic” events is ads like this and what they force on the athletes. When they get too big they play to not lose as opposed to playing to win, and the games turn to shite. But with multi million dollar contracts and egos running around, they are not willing to stick their necks out.

The ad is incredible though, Rooney the pikey, absolutely brilliant!

Phil.

One reason i love watching college ice hockey…

World Cup 2010 is going to be awesome.
You people that don’t like it are plain dumb.
Go to a bar that sponsors it in your city and pick your girl by country.
Brazil, Argentina, Italy, etc. Gostasia !!!

Yeah i agree totally with that Phil but… when the football starts, all the crap just disappears and the football does all the talking.

Football fans are pretty good at ignoring the commerciality of sport the second that the referees whistle goes and the first ball is kicked.

Unfortunately the World Cup clashes with Glastonbury Festival.
England are due to play Slovenia in their final group game of the World Cup at 3pm (BST) on June 23 – the same day the festival opens to the public.

4 years ago i watched a game on the Pyramid Stage screens with 160,000 other people. It was amazing despite England getting knocked out.

Then of course there is the other World Cup at Glasto.
The ultimate Glastonbury Forum eFestivals has a mini tournament after the Festival has closed.

True that mang, true that. Though I was a Sefo fan too, back in the day.(That guy has charisma, and a lot of heart!)

The last scorer may strike a note for some reason…???

Don’t know why…
