While it’s not exactly related to sports betting, I felt compelled to put up the new commercial that Nike is running which is remarkable for so many reasons, not least of which being that it was directed by Michael Mann. The same Michael Mann who’s created such films as Heat, The Insider, Ali, Collateral and most recently, Miami Vice.

I think it’s a pretty damn visceral commerical - making you feel what it must be like to be on the field. You can tell from watching it that Mann clearly respects and admires the athletes who endure this kind of physical punishment. What do you guys think?

Bonus Points if anyone can name what movie the music in the commerical is from.
