New SportsCenter commercial featuring John Clayton

This is SportsCenter - John Clayton - YouTube

Probably the best one ever. Any other favorites?

Fantastic. However nothing will ever top Charlie Steiner yelling "Follow me, Follow me to Freedom"

Re: New SportsCenter commercial featuring John Clayton

That is almost exactly how I imagined John Clayton off camera in real life.

Steiner was the king of This Is SportsCenter commercials. The Holyfield ("come out and get your whuppin'") and the one where he knocked out the Syracuse Orange are also classics.

The Clayton commercial is hysterical, but this one with Alex Ovechkin is still my all-time favorite.

My thoughts exactly. Best SC commercial of all-time, easy.

Re: New SportsCenter commercial featuring John Clayton

These are great. I always got a kick out of the Trey Wingo commercial.
