Personally, I thought Matt Hasselbeck's commercial was a little bit more entertaining, but Chester Pitts commercial wins in the inspiration department hands down.
How often do you hear a tale of a normal person getting plucked from a dead-end, everyday type of occupation and becoming an elite athlete in what is arguably the most prestigious professional sports association in this hemisphere?Hardly ever and that's why I found this commercial to be a fun one to watch. Honestly, I couldn't tell you Chester Pitts was before this commercial, but I guarantee I'll remember him here on out.

Actually he was working part-time at the market while going to San Diego State. And he does play the oboe.

You must not have the NFL Network or watch the sob stories on ESPN. All kidding aside, it was a nice ad for the NFL. Hasselbeck still isn't worth knowing though.

This was my favorite one of the night. Fun, not maudlin story, inspirational, decent acting from the sports stars, nice kicker line.
