As a scooter rider in the 60's I love that advert, but what drives me nuts about the Euro 2004 coverage is damned music they play when they can't be bothered to give us commentary in the period before the games. For $20 it would not be too much to expect them to transmit the entire coverage, rather than just the game itself. For the England games they could give us the prematch coverage from the British TV station they are using. As it was, for the France game, we even got the microphone checks transmitted. That is pretty unprofessional in my view.

I find the same problem with FSW. I swear if I see another ad for Fox Laugh Out Loud Sunday I'm going to drive a spear through my head!

"Sir other customers need to use that dressing room"

"Dressing room, uh oh."

Me too. The first time I saw it I thought it was hilarious, then I watched the Simpsons that sunday and figured out that the whole dressing room thing was just an ad not a preview. They show it all the time and it is getting annoying, like the Budweiser frogs of the mid 90's.

PEACE

That Adidas commercial is awful!

How much did they have to pay Del Piero to make a fool of himself like that...riding around waving like a little nerd. Damn man have some self-respect.

And who conceived the idea to have Oliver Kahn in it, looking like a helmet wearing Yeti cruising down the portuguese countryside on a little scooter. Lord have mercy!

Nike ain't much better, with their fake, perpetratin' posture of trying to be the cutting edge "soccer" company...please!

PEACE

"just a 1/2 hour a day and you can get these results..." uum yeah, with top 5% of the population genetics, steroids, perfect diet..
