I'm sitting here watching the Kansas City vs. Detroit game on MLB Network and they have this commercial about the Sony play station "MLB 12, The Show" where the Guy is playing the video game where the Chicago Cubs win the world series. He is sitting there crying like a baby.
I'm a White Sox fan, and basically a "Chicago" fan so when my Sox won the 2005 W.S. I sat on my couch and literally had tears flowing. It had been my entire lifetime since any "Chicago" team had won the Series, so for me I could finally say, its about time we won.
For Cub fans, this may be the only way they will win the Series...on a video game.
Anyway, what is your favorite commercial????

<< <i>The Nike soccer one is the best ever but should be disqualified because it's over a minute. For regular length commercials, this is one of my all time favorites:

A close second is the Miller Lite one where Randy Cross bends over to pick up his wallet and a guy walking by says, "Hey, it's Randy Cross!"
Such an underrated player and HOFer for sure. Love that commercial and a similar one with Durant. Both playing currently.
Cool thread!

I thought this commercial was great when I was young. I just watched it again and it's pretty bad. Some things (e.g. my '87 Topps collection) just don't stand the test of time.
Edited for correct link.
