    So I'm getting up this morning, and the first thing that comes on my TV is always ESPNEWS.

    A commercial comes on that shows a hispanic household crowded around a TV. The game that is on the tube is Real Madrid vs. Barcelona. Their is one Barca fan in a room full of Madridistas. Two young men start chanting "Madrid-clap clap clap Madrid-clap clap clap" And the one Barca fan goes nuts. A penalty is awarded to Real, and it happened to be Figo that goes down in the box.


    Young guy-Penalty!

    Elderly Barca Fan-No es penal! Figo es un traidor! Se Tiro! Se Tiro.

    Then the old man is practically booed out of the room.

    Pretty cool commercial.

    I saw this ad about a year ago in a movie theater.

    My wife turned to me and said "Figo who?"

    We both then laughed really loudly, causing the people around us to quietly, slowly move away.

    Tony Sanneh also said "Figo who?" in June of 2002.
