    &nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp Check out the .mpg commercial at the link - it's actually pretty cool (and it even includes a quick soundbite from spejic's favorite currently-playing Danish MLS player of all-time)! :cool:


    &nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp GO EARTHQUAKES!!!

    "the essence of today’s player and fan: young, diverse, hungry for success and relishing the role of trail-blazer and trend-setter"

    Mathis - hungry for success or just plain hungry?

    That was one fishin' great commercial. They really nailed it! The whole idea of this being the world's sport! And the comment about the sport being a religion. Wow! I'm blown away! Love it! Great job!

    I'm guessing tomorrow. Article says that's when the "integrated campaign" starts.

    That's one tight commercial. Totally pumps you up about soccer in the U.S. And one of the best goals in there is naturally, a Quakes goal. Good ol' LD. :)

    Was out of town and just got a chance to watch the tape of Saturday's game. Wow, what a great commercial! I like the fact that they're highlighting the breadth of talent in the league rather than a single star. Gave me goosebumps. Best commercial yet from MLS.

    My Lord...an integrated marketing campaign! From MLS and sponsors!

    Hopefully this is the start of a trend that will include some exposure in radio and TV in local markets.

    WTF? Are they making a Saturday morning cartoon or something? Hilarious. What are their superpowers? (I feel like Space Ghost asking that...)

    Landon: My superpower is falling down...
    Carlos: No, my superpower is falling down!
    Clint: I have hair now.
    Cobi: Why am I included in this?
    DaMarcus: I have to pee.

    &nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp Actually, it would be more natural for Cobi and Carlos to be saying that, seeing as they could perform the action in their new unis without anyone noticing. :eek:

    &nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp GO EARTHQUAKES!!! :(

    Its a pretty good commercial. Great concept, better than what MLS offered last year. Of course, the best part was the clip of the Quakes!!!

    Long live the Quakes
