This Nike commercial is pretty friggin amazing. And, I think it’s safe to assume you’ve already seen it a gillion times. (Poor Rooney - looks like he’s headed for a rough life right about now.) Here’s the song that plays in the background from Dutch progressive rock band Focus . I can’t get enough of the yodeling!: Focus - “Hocus Pocus” Focus - “Hocus Pocus” (Buffetlibre Remix) — Basil
Lately there has been an endless amount of Soccer (or Football if you will) playing on the various digital devices around my Santa Monica office. Personally, I've given it a shot and seem to always walk out of the room the second a goal is scored. So having never seen a live goal, I've moved [...]

Today marks the kick off of the highly anticipated 2010 World Cup. That fancy cable package you...
Ah, endelig i gang med livets strste glede: Klisj-VM. Ukene der verdens visstnok beste fotballspillere utkjemper kriger om gulltrofeet er i gang, men det skjer s veldig mye mer enn det. Her er listen over klisjeer du m passe deg for. Frst ut er en uant mengde PR- og reklamekampanjer i hyst varierende grad. Og en del celeb cameos av den uforglemmelige typen.
Hey folks. I have alluded to this in past blog posts, but starting tomorrow morning, Midwest Broadcast will be inactive for approximately one month. I'm traveling to South Africa to attend World Cup 2010. Needless to say, that trip takes priority over blogging. Furthermore, I'll likely have limited media access while there, making blogging a virtual impossibility. I return to the good old USA on July 6. It may take a few days to readjust, but fear not, MWB will be back running sometime that month. In the meantime, you can refer to [...]
The Greek goddess of victory, Nike , and her corporate namesake has smiled down once again on a fat Dutch progressive rock flautist . Nearly forty years after Providence smiled down on Thijs van Leer to make his wild, wonderful, yodelling guitar jam a worldwide hit, it is starting all over again. Thanks to this shoe video for the 2010 World Cup (and its 10 million views and counting), the Netherlands- based [...]
S'il devait n'y avoir qu'un buzz média à retenir pour cette Coupe du Monde FIFA 2010 , ce serait celui-là. Pourtant, la concurrence avait mis la barre très haute. Version street pour Adidas et sa campagne "Celebrating Originality on the Streets , version roots pour Puma et son superbe spot "Puma Journey of Football" qui ramenait le sport le plus populaire du monde en terre africaine, sur le son élégant des Gnarls Barkley . Mais Nike n'avait pas dit son dernier [...]
So I can't make it to South Afrika for the World Cup, but I can make it to Europe...good enough for me...

Nike Football has a new epic ad titled 'Write The Future' which features soccer players Didiger Drogba, Wayne Rooney, Ronaldihno, and Christano Ronaldo. The behind the scenes video shows the making of the commercial and director Alejandro Gonzales explains the concept behind the commercial, that we are the only ones who can write our futures based on our actions. The full length ad is also below. Related Posts: HYPE 5 (R.I.P. Biggie Edition) Young Money On Mo'Nique Show [...]
Découverte à la mi-temps de la finale de la Champions League, la nouvelle pub de Nike Football nous a scotché. Que se passe-t-il quand un joueur réussi un geste? Et quand ce même joueur rate un geste? Les réponses dans la vidéo ci-dessous; la meilleure du genre à ce jour...

I know I'm a bit late on posting this, but this commercial is to ILL not to post. Nike uses the 2010 FIFA World Cup for their new Write The Future campaign. We see some of footballs best players in game situations that can go either way. As many of us know that a player missng a goal or making a goal can change things for the player, team, and even country in some instances. I can't wait for the World Cup to start, until then check out this great commercial by Nike.

¿Algún futbolero en la sala? Si es así, seguro que está al tanto del nuevo comercial que Nike ha publicado para promocionar el Mundial de Fútbol, que comienza el 11 de junio. Se llama Write The Future y lo podéis ver al final del post. Al verlo me ha sorprendido el hecho de que incluya un clásico del grupo holandés Focus . Se trata de Hocus Pocus , una canción instrumental fácilmente reconocible por la única parte vocal que incluye, muy al estilo tirolés. Aprovechando la ocasión y para aquellos [...]

Our resident soccer fiend Devin has been traveling the past few days, otherwise he'd be doing this writeup. So I'm stepping in to handle the duties even though my knowledge of futbol is next to nil. Still, even I'm aware that the brand's latest "Write The Future" spot for the World Cup is pretty dope with cameos by Kobe, Homer Simpson, Roger Federer and featuring every big name futbol star I've seen mentioned by Brother Chanda and every site commenter (Ronaldo, Rooney & Drogba; I pay attention hehe). Safe to say the advert just help to revise D's original [...]
Perhaps tonight's UEFA Champions League final may have passed you by but I would suspect that many people realise that another FIFA football World Cup is upon us this summer, taking place in South Africa. And even if you didn't know that, it looks like advertising will catch you up with you soon enough. Wisely, companies looking to peddle their wares have created some brilliant adverts to do so. We've had Carlsberg's recent England Team Talk ad and now this Nike advert , directed by none other than [...]
Nike's budget for this musta been pretty steep. I dont care though, this advert is sick. If you're PC is fast enough; watch this in 1080p. Its worth it.
It doesn't get much better than this if you're a fan of soccer, or just of genuinely cool shit. Nike knocked it out of the park with this one, which showcases some of the best footballers around experiencing the highs and lows of representing (or failing to represent) their home country.
