10 Greatest US Christmas Commercials Of All Time

8. Michael Jordan vs Santa For Nike

You could say I'm biased as i'm both a Chicagoan and a Bulls fan, but really, who isn't a fan of His Airness? Nike sure was. They were (and still are) such fans of Michael Jordan that they made him the official face of the company, and he has remained its chief source of creative inspiration to this day. In the early days of his career, he was famous for starring in a number of commercials with Spike Lee, who played his character Mars Blackmon from She's Gotta Have It. However, when Mars was busy it seemed like any opponent could approach Mike and issue a challenge, even Santa. Now normally, an old, fat white guy has no chance on the basketball court against anybody, let alone MJ, and Santa was certainly no exception as MJ promptly put on a scoring clinic for the jolly old man. Still, Santa can't have been all that upset, since he did get a new pair of Jordan's. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GC10Vd5wpUg

Raymond Woods is too busy watching movies to give you a decent bio. If he wasn't too busy watching movies and reading books about movies and listening to podcasts about movies, this is what he'd tell you. "I know more about film than you. Accept this as a fact and we might be able to talk."
