New Nike Ad Clearly Illustrates ‘Just Do It’ Position

  • 1 min read

Nike has a new ad running that shows sports figures playing sports they normally are not known for such as football player
Mike Vick playing hockey, cyclist Lance Armstrong boxing, runner Marion Jones doing gymnastics and baseball player Randy Johnson bowling.

The spot clearly amplifies Nike’s “Just Do It” position in a way that demonstrates the “anything is possible” attitude of the company. Sure they are all accomplished athletes and performing another sport might not be as difficult for them as it might be for you or me but it is a clear demonstration that there’s no need for boundaries when it comes to life’s aspirations. Thanks to Adrants reader Ryan Perry for pointing this out.

Psychology says the boomer men now entering their late 60s and 70s are carrying a specific kind of unhappiness that has almost no cultural language — they were raised to provide, protect and endure, and most of them did all three brilliantly, and the cruelest reward for a lifetime of quiet service is discovering that the role was the entire identity and without it there’s a man underneath who was never introduced to anyone including himself

Psychology says people over 60 who still play CDs aren’t resisting technology — they’re protecting a ritual that required intention and commitment and the act of holding an album and choosing it is a ceremony that streaming destroyed by making every song equally weightless and their refusal to let go is a refusal to let music become background noise in a life where too much is already disappearing

I’m 37 and I’ve noticed that whenever there’s a crisis everyone turns to me like I have answers – and the hardest part isn’t solving the problem, it’s that nobody ever asks if I’m okay because they need me to be the steady one and I’ve forgotten how to be anything else

I’m 73 and I keep the television on from six in the morning until I fall asleep — not because I’m watching it, but because the sound of other people talking fills the exact shape of the silence my family left when they stopped needing this house, and some mornings a commercial says “good morning” before anyone real does
