Sorry if you expected it to be longer, avatar size limits are a bitch when it comes to this.

Could you make one of this video? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dn1e5Bqy_e8

From 1:21 til as far as you can (preferably after zidane smiles)? :D
 
For a sport that was invented by European ladies to keep them busy while their husbands did the cooking that was a really good commercial.

Can't wait
 
Seriously, five pages and no mention of Joga Bonito!?!?

This is one of the best series of ads I have seen Nike do. Cantona is great in these ads.

I'm sure it was mentioned already. Aww, Cantona. the closest he ever got to anything World Cup related.
 
The most impressive part of that ad is that it made a boring sport look exciting.

Are there around 85 exciting seconds of soccer each match? Sure.
 
Well, the trolls had to show up sometime.

In all fairness, you liked Scribblenauts so, that says alot about your opinions.
 
Nice random Landon Donovan 0.7s cameo in that one. I guess Nike had to fulfill somebody's endorsement contract there. :lol

Poor Landon. So much potential, so much disappointment over the course of his career.

To be fair, he did well at Everton, where I thought he would fail horribly.
So that's something I guess.
 
Great commercial. I doubt they'll ever top Guy Ritchie's Nike ad from a few years ago, though. That one is just thoroughly brilliant.
 
I'll always remember the Adidas Jose+10 ads from the 2006 World Cup.

"Beckenbauer?! HAHAHAHAHA- O_O"

The expression on that kid's face was priceless. They found some pretty awesome kids to play Jose and his nemesis.
 
Great ad. Not a football fan but the World Cup always seems to inspire great marketing.

Nothing new in that. They always have some insane expectations for the World Cup.

I have been there during their scheduled losses in the Euros and it is amazing to see the reactions in a football country in person. Every flag disappears seemingly within a few hours of the loss.
Which pisses off us non-football fans and lead to the creation of the "England Is For Life - Not Just For Football" sticker.

You sure you're British?
 
Great commercial.

Biggest shock was Kobe. I haven't been following endorsement for a long time and had no idea Kobe was a part of Team Nike. I've watched very little basketball the ast couple of seasons though...
