I like the idea but I think the execution falls down... Blue & Black?
What team wears blue and black?

The wallpapers look nice too. If they get around to including our team, I'll download it and put it on any computer I can find.

I can't believe they chose Mastroeni as the other guy in the ad. I guess they wanted Landon and a rivalry, and since they just deleted the team on the other side of the rivalry, they went for the team that is kind of nearby and sort of has a world cup guy and kind of might maybe sort of work. I wonder if there will be other versions of the ad with other players. It seems like there should be, but who knows. I won't embrace those colors, but I embrace Red, Blue and Gold.

nice observation Merril.

1. they needed Landy.
2. RSL has a better rivalry with the gaLazy than does colorado.

it should have been pope v. landy in the commercial.

it's the voice over....it is the voice over. it's the beatnick poem voice over that really detracts from the overall feal of the commercial.

The face painting seems a bit silly to me. And ya, the voice over is at best non-traditional for a spot like that.
