too bad...

Reebok owns the NFL now.

you'd think reebok

would do more to commercialize their grasp on the NFL… they don’t really do any entertaining commercials.

silly brits

Reebok was created and is stilled owned by the Brits. All they really want to promote is how they own soccer branding. NFL is small time to them.

Hopper is greatness

Warner Madrigal makes Ezequiel Astacio look downright handsome.

Personally, I'm partial to the office linebacker commercials.

two things about that commercial...

I love the music in it…

and I always find it funny when you can clearly see the reebok logo on the jerseys. At least Nike did their part to keep it real.

Yes...

It’s one of the worst advertisements I’ve ever seen in terms of selling your product or brand. However, it is one of the best commercials ever in terms of mood and production.

... I’ve seen that approximated the feeling of being on a football field (at any level) with any kind of accuracy. The first time I saw it I had two realizations: a) I miss playing football. b) I’ll never be able to suit up and clock someone.

Great commercial.

They've got ESP mannnnnnnnnnnnnnn

Plaschke: Scioscia, the former Dodgers catcher, is the model manager who has created an atmosphere of winning.
Junior:It's that simple. Mike Scioscia brings a Glade Plug-In labeled "Winning™" into the clubhouse and everyone who breathes it in gains 15 points in average.

Would you believe...

that’s the first time I’ve ever actually seen this commercial.

Somehow, back in the day, I always missed it.

gotta love Dennis Hopper.

only thing I didn’t like him in was his role in “24.”

can we get a present day version with Christopher Walken?

I was always kind of partial to this one as well
