I've played competitive volleyball, swimming, golf, soccer, figure skating (at a very high level), karate, and cross country running.

This is my most favorite commercial ever. Who else thinks this has a powerful message?

Thank you for sharing this!!! I've been trying to tell others who like to downplay sports when I express my love for it, how sports goes beyond the field/court for the longest, but cynical people who despise and hate sports love to stick to their close minded opinions like, "do away with sports we don't need it, it's not important shut down courts". They refuse to acknowledge the impact that sports had\has on the world. A lot of those bitter people are jealous of athletes and are mad because they themselves lack athletic ability. I got goosebumps from watching this, thanks so much :D I'm gonna go download this now lol

[AnaBrie]

I got goosebumps too!

People who aren't athletes would never understand. They will never know what it's like to wake up at 5:30 and train in an ice rink before going to school at 8:00.
People who bash sports are just sad, un-athletic fat people. I actually feel sorry for them.

It's sad really that a person can get paid so much by just throwing a ball in a basket. Where is society going...

@HumbleTeddy
Downhill but not because of the salary athletes have..

well the message is beautyfull... but just thinking about the fact that 50% of the globes population struggles for food makes this video just being an example of our first world snobbery... whe build up depression, aggression, get fat and lazy and have to advertise for sport while half of the world struggles for even the most basic shit.

[AnaBrie]

This is a Nike commercial. They aren't feeding the world.

[genericname85]

my point was that we "don´t do enough sports" while those people can´t even think about sports...

[AnaBrie]

I sponser a child (and her family) who live in Kenya. They are as poor as can be, yet they still play soccer. They built their own soccer ball, and I sent the community 3 new ones.

It's always possible.

[genericname85]

that´s lovely :) if sports could bring this "sharing" mentality for everybody the world would really be better...

[Climber]

[Klaatu51]

[WitchKing]
