In the tense days preceding Super Bowl 2014, ESPN whipped up a special “This Is SportsCenter” ad. In keeping with the “This Is SportsCenter” commercial series, this one is entertaining even if you’re not a football fan. I say that with the knowledge that admitting to tepid feelings about the game is sufficient cause for deportation – even if you were born here.
The new ad takes place in the elevator at ESPN headquarters, where Denver Broncos mascot Miles is chatting with the guys from ‘SportsCenter.’ When the door opens and Seahawks mascot Blitz steps on, rivalry erupts. Is there a Mascot league where these guys can work out their differences on the field?
