Top 40 Best SportsCenter Commercials of All Time!

[@TheGoldenGreek21]

My childhood coming back. Amazing to see so many that we’ve lost.

[@jonbuckley5049]

Sad to see that some of the athletes and ESPN folks aren’t with us anymore. 😢

[@EskimoRonnie]

Agreed

[@bradfordrobinson568]

Just thinking the exact same thing

[@jamesqualls8125]

True, including the golfer who created a drink that is named after him. Think about it.

[@latinolawdog5067]

Yep, and some of the story lines didn’t age well. The “russian spy” clip with Ovechkin is not so funny today as it was at the time 😞

[@WWEFan16-]

It really is 😢

[@willywonkachevy]

The Pirate raid one I love!

[@rstreet5537]

"The locs plunder them"

[@jackwoods9604]

"Did you switch chairs with me?"...Always loved that one

[@ericveneto1593]

SVP eventually copped to it on Sportscenter

[@mattbagley7827]

Personal favorites on this list: - all the Stuart Scott (RIP) ones, especially the one where he and Kenny teach Kobe & Keyshawn how to speak with the media - David Ortiz getting caught in a Yankees hat - Jimmy Rollins doing a tape review with SVP - obviously, the John Clayton (RIP) Slayer promo if you didn't grow up with late 90s/early aughts Sportscenter, you missed out on the pinnacle of sports television

[@moemonte88]

The ovi Russian spy one was hilarious

[@WWEFan16-]

Those are great ones!

[@darrellludlow]

Kicking it off with Sage Steele talking about ESPN making everyone feel comfortable. Classic!

[@mstimpfel]

A classic, and consistently underappreciated, SportCenter commercial is the Oregon Duck typing away while the fellow ducks quack happily in the pond. I remember working terrible hours downtown, looking out the window and seeing everyone enjoying rooftop pools, and feeling the same exact way as this duck. kzbin.info/www/bejne/jH-YZKyObrShhpI

[@bdbeaudette]

One of my favorites!

[@ExhaustedElox]

I'll always love #35. Nothing cooler than watching Arnold Palmer pour himself an Arnold Palmer.

[@edmyers9403]

Stewart scott will always be my favorite RIP my friend

[@rebeccabakerpalmer]

Steve Irwin. Classic.

[@MiloneMoneyMindset]

That Arnold Palmer commercial is legendary. These are all great! Russian spy lol.

[@mramirz922]

The New Jersey Devil one is hilarious

[@rstreet5537]

Never gets old The first time seeing that commercial I couldn't stop laughing

[@AficionadoOfArt]

Which one? The one where he keeps f**king with the thermostat or the one where no one wants to get in the elevator!!!!😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@jonboxleitner7354]

The Steve Irvin one is fantastic. 13:57

[@pat2rome]

I can't believe "big time Timmy-Jim" didn't make the cut.

[@diablosportscreme]

Dan Patrick with a picture of Dan Patrick in his locker gave me a crazy laugh.

[@adammichener987]

That tree falling sound effect was hilarious

[@DPRyan-vd5pp]

I will always call him SCOTT VAN MELT! Lol

[@SuperSaiyanGuyver]

A relic of a bygone age, before social media, where people weren't all about their image, unafraid to make fun of themselves. I laughed hardest at the Arnold Palmer one. Its subtle, but DANG. So funny.

[@sportspokerguy3506]

Mr. Redlegs hasn’t lost a mustache contest since 1869!!!

[@moemonte88]

Just straight laugh out loud funny man

[@sneakerpimp1977]

The devil's mascot on the elevator still makes me laugh 20 years later

[@jerryjanik480]

Rest in peace Kobe Bryant rest in peace Stewart Scott

[@PopPunkKing30]

Rest in Peace Pat Summitt.

[@samlevy3181]

Rest in peace Steve Irwin

[@adawg2015]

And John Clayton.

[@GermanisMarcell]

HEY MOM!! IM DONE WITH MY SEGMENT!!😂😂

[@Howlingburd19]

The Ovechkin/Russian Spy should at least be in top ten :/ It’s always nice to see athletes (and this applies to all of them that participate in these commercials) have a sense of humor :)

[@kevinfunk83]

No. 1!! I also can’t believe the Brandy Chastain one didn’t make it.

[@willpuchalsky8900]

These were great ! Some of these I'd guess we're in the 90's . Scott Van Pelt had hair in some of them. Lol

[@donaldanderson6408]

Man..ESPN was so on point with these commercials 💯❤

[@IrishRhino2727]

I just realized at 5:51 that Dan has a headshot of himself in his locker hahha

[@chadstokes6532]

Steve wrangling that Gator was the best

[@stanleywilliams1605]

My favorite was always the one where Stuart Scott is talking with Evander Holyfield and he tells Holyfield that Charley Steiner said that Evander was the 50th best heavyweight in Georgia😂 and Holyfield goes throughout the building looking for Charley😂😂

[@NKase-vy1kf]

AP and the Viking. Classic!

[@isaacrodriguez2205]

RIP Stuart Scott, Arnold Palmer, Kobe, Pat Summitt, John Clayton

[@durstin8er]

And Richard Simmons and Steve Irwin

[@antj2k1]

As a collection, sportscenter commercials are the best of all time

[@PrincessofPower84]

I love the ones with the mascots are always gold and I like the one with the baseball player who arms fell off for no reason.

[@alexppape]

The original and only office mockumentary that matters. This is Sportscenter

[@CapnZack8353]

This was when ESPN was still good. Now they’re only good for live sports. But if you need to know what Lebron did in the off-season or what game Taylor Swift is going to, they got it covered

[@OMGimfreakinout]

Man I would kill for that schedule

[@joebeuselinck6325]

2:21 is my all time fav. So simple.

[@kingdongo4388]

Giannis scene was perfect 😂

[@patrickkanas3874]

So I think it was an interview with Steve Austin where I heard this, but Dan Patrick did legit hit Steve with a chair in that commercial. They were gonna put something behind Steve to take the blow, but he said no to that and told them to just hit him

[@marcen12]

The Devil in the elevator bit was amazing.

[@AshleeWalkerTea]

Sage Steele's comment at the beginning about esbn is FUNNY! 😅😅

[@alZiiHardstylez]

"Incendiary. Is that one of those 'i' before 'e' type words" Kekek.

[@cheerwhiner7829]

1) Jeter & Phanatic 2) Stone Cold & DP 3) Jay Harris & NJ Devil Honorable Mentions: - Payton and Eli, ESPN tour - Mr. Red, Mustache contest

[@kevinboynton7284]

Where the hell is the Gordie Howe and Keith Olbermann commercial?

[@johnedinger8343]

This is probably the 4th Best of Sports Center commercial compilation and NONE of them have the Y2K commercial with Charlie Steiner which is BY FAR the best Sports Center commercial of ALL TIME!!!

[@pigs18]

That one's great. I also enjoy the SportsCenter IPO where the stock tanks once Charlie Steiner goes on TV and starts talking. ("I don't think we even own the rights to the name 'SportsCenter.'")

[@johnwayne9828]

The big buddy program was a good one.

[@Sucksuphere]

Soooo funny and creative !!!! 😊😊😊😊

[@matts7019]

How can you have a best of without the Mannings touring the studio and Brees getting a float stuck in the guard gate?

[@RogerAM78]

The Mannings one is top 5 all of tine

[@BO4SHO]

The PIRATES.. ..LMAO....should be top 5

[@moemonte88]

17:35 greatest one ever and it’s not even close

[@brown958]

Make sure you throw Sage in there so she doesn’t get pissed

[@rstreet5537]

😂😂😂😂

[@siircartiier]

Kobe rocking the jordan 11’s makes me happy

[@tuneshiaroach7393]

RIP: Stuart, Kobe, & Coach Pat

[@alexgeorge501]

15:38 best one

[@iamsmarterthanme]

The Steve Irwin got me 😢

[@WhiteCheddar.]

These are hilarious I miss the old ones

[@bd1128]

What?!!!! No office linebacker?!!!! That was one of my favorites.

[@johnwayne9828]

Those werent "this is sports center" commercials.

[@SlapShotRegatta22]

As a Yankee fan the Red Sox are my sworn enemies but the Jorge, Ortiz bit has to be the best by far 😂🤣

[@cynthiaquillen3854]

The Y2K test commercial is the best ever.

[@OMGimfreakinout]

Follow me! Follow me to freedom!!

[@stevenfagaly3810]

Saw a different top 40 video recently and it didn't include my #1-The Stolen Lebron Chair. Glad to see it here

[@ryannarby4519]

Where's the Drew Brees Martis Gras sketch?

[@DeadPoole924]

My fav is Ortiz in the Yankees hat

[@markymark5282]

Did I miss the Tim Lincecum one. Come on. Big time Timmy Jim!

[@SFGUNNER]

They missed a few. The best one was when the office experienced the y2k

[@jasonburger8881]

Go to 5:01, because Pierce is still with ESPN right now. SO COOL

[@19brittani]

Scotty wants his snuggie... lol

[@TimLee356]

these are so much better than the actual show

[@JobbaWorks]

Ovi as a Russian Spy is just too good

[@ericveneto1593]

Personally fond of Michelle Kwan comforting DP & Rich when they learned they weren’t popular in TX

[@JakethesnakeFerris11]

Charley Steiner's end Apocalypse commercial was awesome

[@crashdavis8431]

Man i miss Stuart Scott

[@johnwayne9828]

How can you not have the "big buddy program" in a top 40 list?

[@jaironunez7196]

4:10 😢

[@rstreet5537]

Andrew McCutchen and the pirates had me on the floor The Stanford tree Josh Hamilton

[@samuraijumper]

The Big Papi and Wally one has always been my favorite.

[@billdowling8428]

GSP spot was criminally absent.

[@PhilipFranklin-w6o]

Hi from New York

[@mooghero909]

That Russian commercial was wild 😂

[@ooo_Kim_Chi_ooo]

Back when ESPN was actually cool.

[@taylorleach9638]

Richard Simmons 😂😂

[@damianozappi9394]

Greatest era of ESPN

[@DPRyan-vd5pp]

They didn’t show the one I was waiting for….the jersey devil turns the heat up on the thermostat …then humans put it at room temperature, then the Pittsburg penguin mascot puts it to freezing! Lol

[@therealtracysson]

How do you leave off D Wade in the editing bay?!

[@tennesseetennesseeaintnopl3585]

*Ovechkin is #33?!?*

[@Howlingburd19]

That’s a sin, it should at least be in the top ten!

[@bdubs3568]

A couple that i loved but are missing: Calvin Johnson / Megatron turning into a pop machine The Manning Family rour Hitting golf balls into the satellite dish Evander Holyfield / Charley Steiner

[@adawg2015]

RIP Kobe and Pat Summit.

[@scottferguson2278]

The John Clayton one is the Best.

[@vickperez65]

Back when lebron was likeable until he wanted to announce the decision on live tv then brag about how many championships he was gonna win ,😂

[@paulsega2066]

R.I.P. Steve Irwin(Crocodile Hunter)........was the Best Commercial, taking down the FLORIDA GATOR WAS EPIC........."CROCI HAVE A GO AT THE SIZE OF THIS BEAUTY"..........He was, Humble and Down to Earth human being!!!!.........IN MY OPINION HE WOULDN'T PUT ANY BLAME ON THE STING RAY THAT ENDED HIS LIFE, THAT'S THE TYPE OF MAN HE WAS, RESPECTED EVERYONE!!!!.......WAS TAKEN WAY TOO EARLY!!!

[@allenknisell1119]

Holyfield looking for Steiner

[@emdawg26]

The Stephen Curry commercial is so funny! @ 6:48

[@ernieblanchard8879]

They left out the greatest one.. the Y2K rehearsal

[@anthonywardjr1750]

Oppa 😂😂

[@aidenrogatz8071]

Lol is that boras negotiating for SVP

[@V-max97]

Make sports center about sports again

[@raddastronaut]

Where’s the boxing gloves with the pop Tarts one. The digimon one. That was the best one.

[@ChrisTheWarrior94]

An ESPN commercial?????

[@billysikes1374]

So many Great ones, but the Steve Irwin and Tiger os my favorite, God I miss Stuart

[@kimberlyward9258]

John Clayton RIP 🙏

[@mstimpfel]

How is the Drew Brees driving the Mardi Gras float not included! kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z52Yq5qGg8epm5I

[@ajliles401]

You gotta be kidding?

[@ajliles401]

The gate is narrow!

[@aidenrogatz8071]

The slump one is the best

[@Zennofobic]

Rich Eisen commercial with Stuart Scott and Kobe, I see dead people.

[@MartyC89217]
