We try to keep the balance between Nike and Adidas commercials, even though I am clearly biased;-)
So this one from the German side plays in Brazil (arguably Brazil's home turf).
Two kids are forming their (adidas) all-star teams.
Kaiser Franz looking all young and fresh again. Wouldn't ...

This is a funny ad suggesting a great place for women to visit during the World Cup.
I am not buying into this.
The problem is that Switzerland is in the World Cup and all you'll ever hear from these guys is " Hopp Schwyz". I doubt that ...

Five in one. Here are some ads that I somehow liked or found interesting.

Nice surprise for the goalie.
Essen playing Chemnitz in the 3rd Division in Germany.
Note:

Remember 199?. The year when Brazil's Ronaldo had that mysterious attack just before the final that they lost to France? They prepared for the tournament at the beach and Nike happened to be there with the camera.
Two hearts are beating in my chest: I am getting a ...

Beer meets art - occasionally.
The shopdropper wasn't the first one to alter product labels. Take a look at Becks' UK art website celebrating 20 years of Becks art. There are quite some interesting labels in the collection.

I've seen a lot of real weird commercials in my life but this (fake?) Pepsi commercial combining Trio's "Da Da Da" with Bavarian Lederhosen and fake soccer world cup stars tops it all.
I don't think (and hope) the German squad will be very much looking like ...
