Clearly, I'm Not a Bodeist
I will officially admit that the first time I saw this ad, I dictionary.com'ed "bode." Bode means bide and bide means little more than to wait. Needless to say, I didn't get it. I left it alone anyway, figuring that like many other multi-million dollar companies, Nike was just in need of a copy editor and/or I just didn't get it. But after being present for the discussion my mother and brother had about the Olympics over Shabbat, I get it. I finally get it. And y'know what? I still think it's a pretty stupid ad.
HA....See I told you he's everywhere you have been in a bubble. uincv
I'm a marketer and during my studies I hoped I would never be assigned to a fictional Nike campaign! I would have failed cause I ain't getitng it either!
Bodie is an Olymipic Skiier, DUH! :)
i happen to know who bode is, and i still didnt get the reference immediately. i like nikes commercials that make you want to get off ur butt and run a marathon- the swoosh is nice, but the print ads just dont do it for me
where are the hiking pics!?!?
why did my pic not work: http://academic.evergreen.edu/curricular/geologyandart/students/Aaron%20Cohen.JPG
I'm feelin' the hate disguised as sympathy. :) For the record, I usually love Nike ads.
i like them. bode's got a lot to say.
