What's your favorite TdF commercial?

I haven't seen the Contador/Schleck commercial but we dvr the Tour and ff through most of the commercials too. I like the Nike "Just Do It" commercial showing Lance on a climb as you hear the voices of people talking about exercising. I'm gone to training this week and they don't have Versus on the hotel tv....DARN IT!

+1 on this...so inspirational...makes me think of all the cancer survivors I know who have refused to let their diagnosis ruin their lives.

Awwww, I just watched a rerun of the podium moment where Mark Cavendish cries...those eyelashes!!

Another "what commercials, I use the DVR" person here. Take 3 hours of coverage and shorten it by 40%. Amazing.

I like the RadioShack ones. I think it's because I totally agree with the little rules he has.

I'm waiting for them to make one about talking on the phone while in a public restroom. Really, where is it??

Road ID when Bob Roll is on a roll...

...helmet, bazooka, road ID...

...I even wear it to bed in case an irate motorist follows me home...

I wasn't all that fond of the Radio Shack commercials until the "use our inside voices".

What I want to know is, who the hell is Evan Longoria????

BTW I know the first Radio Shack commercial (no emoticons) was directed by Chris Guest (Best in Show, A Mighty Wind, "This one goes to eleven"). Not sure about the others. I like the raising babies and throwing soft cheeses one.

Oh, I totally forgot they were directed by Christopher Guest! Maybe that's why Alphonse sounds like Fred Willard in the one where he's on Lance's bike.

Evan Longoria is a baseball player for the Tampa Bay Rays. I had to look it up a week or so ago. I thought they were calling him Eva Longoria. Doh.

People actually heckle him by calling him Eva Longoria when he's playing!
