I really enjoyed this Under Armour commercial

I’m not sure why. It’s the “Protect This House. I Will.” / “Combine Training” one with Brandon Jennings, Michael Phelps, Dez Bryant, and Georges St. Pierre. I think it’s a combination of the score, the editing, and the fact that Phelps is using a climbing peg board in it. I’ve always wanted a climbing peg board in my home. A large one. That spanned an entire wall, floor to cathedral ceiling. It was probably my favourite activity in junior high, even though I couldn’t conquer the board we had at our school until grade 9. Still, the thought of having a gigantic peg board in my home one day is only slightly trumped by the idea of having a huge climbing wall in my billiards room.

One day, friends. One day.

And, for good measure, an example of a guy with a climbing wall in his home (it’s in Japanese, but don’t worry, it’s subtitled):
