Day 197: Sports are baaack... AGAIN! Footlocker x Nike bring back "Educators" v2

Now that football is underway, I can officially say that my sport is BAAACK! (still got love for basketball too) Well, it's preseason now but I'm still really excited. In the words of Bart Scott, "CAN'T WAIT!!" for the season to begin..

I noticed that the timing of these "Educator" commercials start right when school is about to begin, which aligns up perfectly with the theme of the commercial. Footlocker & Nike did the same thing last year, and I even posted that one up here:

Day 6: Sports are Baaack

I gotta say this is a great sports ad campaign and the creative people behind it did a good job planning it. #kudos

Day 19.5: NBA 2K11 Teaser with Rose, Lee, & Rondo (Video)

- Funny commercial with Derrick Rose, David Lee, and Rajon Rondo

NBA 2K is probably the best NBA video game to-date, so if you're a big NBA fan then this is a must-have every year.

NBA 2K11 will be coming out on October 5th for all platforms (ps2, ps3, psp, xbox, wii, pc), so I suggest you get a copy if you think you got what it takes to challenge me (ps3 version). New for this year's version, NBA 2K11 will feature the G.O.A.T. of the NBA, MICHAEL JORDAN!!

Day 6: "Sports are Baaack"

- The Educators


First day of September.. you know what that means? Sports are just around the corner! I'm talking about the "REAL" sports aka Football & Basketball. Here are the start dates to keep in mind:

• NFL: Kicking off next Thursday, 9/09, with the Minnesota Vikings vs the New Orleans Saints, which should be a very action-packed game to watch
• NBA: Beginning their regular season on Tuesday, 10/26, and the game to watch that day will be the Miami Heat vs the Boston Celtics (battle of the new vs the old!)

Of course, what better brands to hype up basketball/football are no other than Foot Locker & Nike. As you saw above, Nike & Foot Locker just created some sik commercials with top athletes in both sports including Justin Tuck, DeSean Jackson, Amare Stoudemire, and Rajon Rondo. Sanya Richards, who is a track & field athlete, is also in the mix too. 

If you don't get pumped after watching these commercials then there's something wrong with you.  Check out the series of commercials below (missing Rondo's commercial, but when it's out I'll post that up):

- Pop Quiz


- Field Trip


- Dunkography
