Zizou Does Some Egg Chasing
Filed in archive Video by daryl on September 10, 2007
To celebrate (or exploit) the start of the Rugby
World Cup, Orange have enlisted French legend Zinedine Zidane to star in a few rugby themed commercials. This one's my favourites, but the rest can be found on this special YouTube channel.
It's all very amusing, but I can't help wishing Zidane would prolong his career just a season or two, before it's too late. I'd love to see him in MLS, as he's one of the only players who could arrive in America with a profile similar to Beckham. While Becks is known as "the celebrity," Zidane is famous for his World Cup headbutt on Marco Materazzi. How great would it be for a nation of gawkers to tune in out of curiosity and hoping for another bout of violence (a bit like watching NASCAR for the crashes I suppose) only to be enraptured by the Zizou's magic on the ball? Plus he's got two good ankles, unlike other prospective MLS saviours.
