Guess who's back...
...in the MothaF*ing house!!
That's right peeps, you're eyes are not deceiving you and just when you thought they wouldn't be shown again, the Mercurial SL's have appeared from obscurity to grace us with their presence... and hopefully it’s not for one night only.
The heads over at Nike are probably grinning with glee in what must be a dream come true scenario... I mean how often do you promote something ever so discreetly for months prior to an unexpected outcome (ie. two of the biggest household names in the world football will be wearing your product as they square off against each other for its grand unveiling in the final the UCL final!?) and then actually have it happen?
Clearly we must give credit where it is due... but wouldn't it be bazaar if this was the expected outcome and half way across the world in some executive's office millions of dolleros were splashed around to bring this outcome to fruition?
Something like this would put the Italian match fixing scandals of last year to shame; heck this would make last week’s earthquakes in China seem like the doing of an ant's fart! That’s the kind of repercussions it would have worldwide!
Anyway... enough of the speculation just sit tight cause in about 8 hours we'll be able to see these puppies go to war.
Just quietly though, who do you think would win in a straight line race?
Ronaldo or Drogba?
