There is cool music in this clip. From Ennio Morricone. You can find this music in movie The Good, the Bad and the Ugly. Or in Metallica album S&M, first song "The Ecstasy of Gold"

You know what...I really like the very end of the clip. I don't think that I've actually seen that many players in the NFL get up, say "good hit" and run back to do it again. Seems like football is all about how much recognition can I get and how can I try to force this into a penalty on the other guy. I like good sportsmanship. The fact that these two got up and sort of congratulate the other in a simple way looks good. I hope this will start to happen in more than just scripted commercials now.

Hum... I did get it. Can anyone explain the commercial?
Basically, what I understood was that two guys (one with long hair, hence #(removed comment)'s comment) loved sport since birth and did separate training and then, one day they literally run into each other and then just stand up and congrats them selves.

Is that it? o_O

Basically everything boils down to the reason that they both need shoes and the commercial suggests which people should buy >:)

I'm no American but from what I understand from reading about this ad, the two guys are famous NFL players called LT & Polamalu and the story and title of the spot is about fate of two people sharing the same passion, almost portrayed as the same person. They bumb into eachother one day and recognise eachother's talent and passion in a sportmanlike way.

I particularly like the shots of the kids falling into the bed (as wrong as that may sound) at the end because it kind of shows both their passion to essentially beating up their bodies for fun.Its a very cool subtle little element but quite easy to identify with for many people I think. Also in that shot the kids look more like girls, but the guy in the car would be a very manly chick...whatever you're into #(removed comment)...
Anyhow the song can be downloaded here:
