Michael Jordan Be Like Mike Gatorade Commercial (1998)

[xFiizZy]

0 ppl dont want to be mike

[jackliu913]

is that soccer chick mia hamm?

[soulchild3751]

Is that a Take 6 sighting??

[mikecherry224]

To all the kobe fans!!!! They might have won if he would have stuck his tongue out!!!

[sankondbest1]

So iconic...no other player wanted it more than mike, no other player had a million dollar smile, no other player had the universal appeal, and no other player could change a game the way MJ could.

Women wanted him and men wanted to be him. Everybody loves what MJ did for the game. I am 25 now, and I remember the last 2x I cried, the second time MJ retired and watching his last game ever against the 76ers. A 10 minute standing ovation for the best player who ever lived

[Rippedtoshredds23]

@sankondbest1 i don't think anyone could have said this any better then the statement listed above.

[jadayoung1]

Larry Bird hatin lol

[Kabman89]

@jadayoung1 I think that he was just mad because they wouldn't let him play in the Tunes Squad game.

[232009jordan]

Its gotta be the shoes!

[YAOMIZZLE420]

[DollaBiIIz]

[BartxXxman]

[FREEDOM23100]

LEBRONS GOT DIS ON HIS IPOD SET ON REPEAT

[valleri07]

For us who grew up in the 90s as teens, I have to admit we were pretty damn lucky. Sure there were some bad fads, but that happens every generation. NBA was much more exciting with Michael Jordan, Scotty Pippin, and the whole reign of the Chicago Bulls! Oprah hit her high mark, Leonardo DiCaprio made the young girls sigh, and Brad Pitt gave us something to smile about in Thelma & Louise. And let's not forget the tv shows: Seinfeld, Friends, X-Files, etc.

[thewolfmanchu]

@valleri07 you forgot some great music. Nirvana, Pearl jam

[WorldOfSnakes]

@valleri07 Every generation feels this way. The generation before you feels you missed out on their great stuff. And the generation before them also felt this way. And this generation of kids will tell the next generation that they missed out on great things also.

[kaluski]

@WorldOfSnakes...lol...true.

[wnper6]

I want to klnow if someone can help me make a video with the gatorade song but put Mike form Season 9's Biggest Loser because he is from Chicago just like Michale Jordan and two, he is such a huge inspirtation by showing that you can lose weight without surgery. God bless you Michael. Gatorade, please consider doing a remake of this commercial with Mike from the Biggest Loser with Michael Jordan. Anyone likes this comment please post and help me campaign for Mike from Season 9's Bigest Loser.

[MrJumpman23mj]

I'm not gonna sing lol

[ep7799]

The greatest sports icon of all time!!!

[kenkb02]

wow haven't seen this in a long time...brings back a lot of memories growing up watching MJ play.

[moonoink]

i was eight when this came on, michael jordan is a legend and there will never be another player like him

[jorge1994raya2alex]

i love this commercial!!...

[starberry1984]

lol, I always laugh at Larry Bird at the end. This has to be the greatest MJ commercial ever! I a Chicago Bulls sampler cd in '98 and it has this song on it, I listen to this song constantly. I am so excited that he is being inducted into the HOF tonight! Best there is, Best there was, Best there ever will be!!

[bausman22]

I agree with the idea to make another updated "like mike" commercial. Just so the youngsters nowadays understand how amazing jordan was. They should have Kobe sing a little, Lebron sing a little and maybe even get every player in the league onto the chicago home court and sing the group parts. Corny but, would gimme goosebumps. Michael Jordan, The best there ever will be.

[thesportsdude09]

No! Michael is OURS! He belongs to us 90's kids. I'm sorry the 2000's kids and beyond will never have cultural icons like we did but that's too bad for them.

[kaluski]

@thesportsdude09 ...hahaha...u r wicked for saying that. I like it...lol.

[gabaqu]

Damn, I remember crying when I first saw this commercial. 1998, I was 9 years old. I was so pissed he was leaving. lol

[quailroberts]

Best ever. Who else could have John Popper, Mia Hamm, and Buggs Bunny singing about them?

[partyorlando]

I agree, noone will ever be better. For all the fans that think Kobe is better, I have never heard a kid sing

"If I could be an aquitted rapist"

Heres to the old school and all od us that know there will never be another Jordan.

[slimlarry2k]

lol larry bird at the end

[logalogalog]

Oh I know! It's so funny! "I'm not gonna sing!"

[JeremyForest]

I remember watching this commercial when the Bulls were playing the Utah Jazz during the NBA Finals, and Jordan made that final shot. Ah man! How I miss the 90s, I'm so happy that my family taped it in the VCR.

[noupzilla]

mj = the greatest of all time

[nikedon]

Well, I guess it's been 10 years since they launched this re-make.

I think they should make another just to put today's youngsters in check!

No to disrespect today's stars,

but you'll have to admit that the NBA just ain't the same anymore.

[lennybaseball]

there was never a thing... like Michael Jordan

[tdhay75]

Michael...please show the NBA kids now-a-days some class. The best ever...hands down. Without a doubt...the man has charisma...

[johnstarsh]

the 90s where tha fucking greatest..mj...jordans..gatora­de in glass bottles..tha shit.

[moonoink]

"i'm not gonna sing" larry bird is a hater

[lsedlak]

this commercial still brings tears to my eyes... no one will ever be like Mike. what he did to basketball will never be repeated. the greatest ever... EVER

[thndrct218]

Jordan is as close to God personified as it can get

[xrobyynnnx]

I love this!

[nickmaurus]

What a magical time

[veetaUND]

Perfectly said

[celticsboy07]

man the 1990s and the bulls ...

[celticsboy07]

jordan days so glorious for chicago

[gatchaman23]

This is what Kobe sings to himself every day.

[drpeppah1]

haha exactly

[chamiley]

no just kobe this is what every guy who has ever held a basketball in his hands sings

[kardzfn21]

I love that comment - b/c this is what BOTH Kobe & Lebron sing to themselves everyday!

[FREEDOM23100]

@gatchaman23 LOL I FINK LEBRON SINGS IT MORE

[leoninja]

@gatchaman23 LMAO!!!

[andy199]

Love these commercials. I've been trying to find the one they did after he retired but can't find it. Anyone able to help?

[bigtyme225]

thank u mike

[BourneCubed]

ba bum bum bum bum!!! Love this

[mizzxlizzie]

classsicc !

[ghetus]

I like this one the best because it came at a time when Mike was definitely at his best, showcasing his talent as never before and concluding that season with the buzzer beater at Utah. Most definitely, I still want to be like Mike (the guy still makes like $30 million a year... who wouldn't wnat to?)

[DynamiteKid33]

larry bird at the end what a legend lol

[brupacce]

best version of the "like mike" commercials in my opinion
