Nike Football: The Last Game
9 Jun
I love this great animation from Nike’s “Risk Everything” campaign featuring both Ronaldos (Original Recipe & Crispy), Neymar, Wayne Rooney, Zlatan, Timmy Howard, David Luiz, Iniesta and Franck Ribery. Especially the part with their “post-football” careers. I got some major giggle fits over that.

The Daily Drool – Drool Amnesty: Wayne Rooney
1 AprAnd so it begins… Welcome to the First Annual Drool Amnesty! As we originally said in our call for suggestions: “We all have a player we secretly have the hots for and hate ourselves for it. It may be team affiliation, general craziness, horrible personality, whatever… But during Drool Amnesty, feel free to love unconditionally, without shame or judgement.”
So we begin with Manchester United’s Wazza, who was a suggestion by quite a few of you! He’s the particular love of watishista and Brooklyn Sweaty Shanks Pena member J-9, so I absolutely had to feature him. She loves him despite the Shrek comparisons, hookers and hair plugs. That, my friends, is the essence of Drool Amnesty. And of course, he sure can play pretty.
