Also, this just popped into my head. Why haven't I been seeing any cool Nike commercials for the World Cup? The tournament starts in less that a month (wohoo!!!) and yet I don't see any commercials. And it's not for lack of trying because I watch TV constantly. But the only World Cup commercials I have seen are the ones that feature the political prisoners and the one with Bono. I know that the host is South Africa and that they overcame all this strife and hardship to finally pull it together to host the world's biggest sports tournament, but I want to be excited about the World Cup coming...not feel bad for South Africa. Though some people should feel bad for them...they've been through a lot. And don't get me wrong, I am ecstatic about the World Cup, I just wish that there was some more pep behind the commercials.
Here's the Nike commercial that was shown before the 1998 World Cup in France. Still one of my favorites.

Patience is a virtue. Nike did it right and here it is.
