I don't know if anyone else has seen the new "Nike" commercial with the girl and guy running together through rain and puddles and splashing each other, and trying to "outdo" each other, to the sound of Greek dancing music.
It's quite good up until the last part when a large coach drives through a large puddle and splashes them.
When there's a interior shot of the coach, guess who is sitting there?
"Sir A.F." (Assaults Females!) and some other players from "Merchandise United".
Bearing in mind that WE are the current champions and have been with Nike since 1995 as kit suppliers, whereas
"Man. Ure", have only got onto the bandwagon since this season, personally, I find that a bit "off".
(Should I expect anything less?).

Yeah, I've seen it a few times now. It was funny when I first saw it, 'till they decided to show them at the end. Nike has been sponsoring Arsenal years before they started to sponsor Manu, but they only showed the Manu team!

So the coach splashes the runners at the end? Maybe nike felt they should use a team of d1cks instead of the morally impeccable double-winners!
