| Nike’s Advertising Department Fails At Subtlety Posted: 09 Mar 2009 04:10 PM PDT I think we’re getting closer and closer to the day when Nike ceases making actual athletic equipment to focus solely on making crappy virals and advertisements which have us yearning for the days of Paolo Maldini, Roberto Carlos and that ugly devil dude from ‘Au Revoir’. This is their latest submission, in which they fail miserably at hiding their true intentions. In the video you’ll notice the highlights from Brazil & Italy’s friendly in London last month which ended up 2-0 and likely saved Dunga’s job - thus meaningless for one team, not so much for the other. But what conclusion can one take from this game and ad? Nike > Puma, obviously. I miss the old days when - at least in the advertising realm - brands proved they were better simply by being better.
