Default Sportscenter Commercial

Did anyone see that new Sportscenter commercial showing these English soccer hooligans? They were flipping cars and causing trouble.

It was funny. But it made soccer look bad.

It was hilarious as most SportsCenter commercials are. Great to finally see a soccer one.

You're right. They should have included Mia Hamm somehow.

Plus you gotta appreciate the touch of going to the bother of including the authentic Bristol Rovers jersies--what miniscule-ass percentage of the audience would pick up on it if they didn't?

Great ad, like all Sportscenter ones are. Noticed the Bristol Rovers jersey as well, they go all-out when they do the ads. I would love to know who does their creative work, whether it's all in house, or if they have a firm doing it for them. The Sportscenter ads are consistently excellent, over a period of years.
