Yep. Complete with crotch shot.

It always amazes me. You mean you can't make flag football appealing to girls without bringing boys/men into it? Is this truly the only way women can feel good about themselves? Way to stoke the gender wars, Nike.

No one is standing in the way of creating girls' flag football teams. Take that up with the schools, they're the ones who would need to support it and fund it. I doubt men would stand in the way of that. I think it's a great idea, the more sports for girls the better. Sure beats staring at screens.

The shot is a must because of the "P"-envy.

Also, it is astonishing that women/girls cannot thrive without comparing themselves to men.

Nor can they start an own sport-genre that is successful.

Instead, they rely on men-discriminatory laws and need to siphon from tax payer's money or from the boys-equivalent like WMBA from MBA.

That a woman firing a football at a man's groin is funny is deeply disturbing. And then showing a woman outperforming men on a football field. Does the NFL think any women's college flag football team could beat any boys' high school football team? And why do we want high school girls to be more masculine than the boys.

Well, they could always stack a "women's" team with trans folks LOL

In every single sport. And it's not even remotely close. In Canada, a good team of 15-16 year old boys destory our Female Olympic team in hockey.

You want more examples? Look at the National Records in High School for boys vs Olympic records for women (keep in mind that Olympic women are juiced to the grills)

Thanks for the reminder Greg! I did a vid on this sort of thing a while back and will post it tomorrow.

I was puzzled by the outperformance in disco throw: woman 72,3m vs man 70m.

Then I found out why: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discus_throw#Regulations

Paid by the NFL? Wow.

My god, so misandrist. They did not need to do this to support and highlight female flag football. Who paid for this? I am writing a piece about woke posturing and virtue signaling.

Just blatantly anit-male to make their point. And don't get me started about comparing male and female athletes, which should not even be relevant.

The ad was pretty much misandrist throughout showing men being anti-intellectual, bullying of nerds and teachers and very much focused on a misogynistic "bro" sports/fraternity type culture that tries to put women in their place using physical strength. The stereotypes were uniformly negative about the men (and also of "nerds") while showing the actually playing the positive male role of defending others from bullying and then showing athletic prowess over the males on the field. This was an ad seeking to make Girl's Flag Football a national sport so showing women in a positive athletic light makes sense...but the weakness of the whole argument becomes clear at the end...particularly in light of recent executive orders around protecting "women's" sports. The reality is that the scenario spoofed in the commercial almost never happens. The reality is....the reverse situation...where a bunch of random guys puts female athletic "talent" to shame in a head to head match is the reality. If you doubt this....why then to women need "protection" from competition with men by having sex specific leagues? Women really stand out in a vacuum....but fail to impress when actually forced to demonstrate their abilities in a fair competition with men. Imagine if a commercial showing the TRUE athletic performance of women in this scenario were demonstrated...perhaps some photos of Riley Gaines whining about how head to head competition with men is unfair and robbing women of their scholarships, opportunities and awards for "performance".

Another sexist commercial was the one showing the fat little girl running and then making the argument that we all need to support women no matter their body type because 50% of female "athletes" drop out of sports over body image issues. Why are only women worthy of support in such issues? There were other ads whose details I forget that also 'centered' as if they deserve special consideration and societal support. Frankly...these ads make me LESS likely to want to support women on these issues.

Either feminists or sucking up men made this piece of unfunny and untrue garbage.

Another shoe company should make an ad revisiting the Nike Ad showing how things would actually play out with the women getting their posteriors handed to them by younger male athletes and end with the phrase "Shoe Brand X...for athletes in the real world!"

I caught that ad. Told my family. Yeah, let's have a team of men against women so everyone can come back down to earth to see the falsehoods we have been indoctrinated with.

This ad is such a crock of shit. It is totally unrealistic but they know the girls like it because they believe that stuff. So lame.

Those idiots still didn't get the memo.

Dumb and cringe, but perhaps not misandrist. When the video is that silly, I don't think you can read much into it.
