Hey Griffey, while you’re sitting out the Reds game, would you mind running the country?

Oh, for the days when Ken Griffey, Jr. was known as the game’s best player instead of the best home run hitter who never did steroids and thus started breaking down and only hit 600 homers.

Just for a moment … oh it was a sweet time.

Anyhow, this is a Nike ad from 1996. If you’re confused, Steve Forbes was a horrendous presidential candidate who lost the GOP nomination to Bob Dole; James Carville was/is a democratic strategic (he worked for Bill Clinton’s team); and George Clinton, well, he’s the man (btw, pepper is a batting practice game where you hit ground balls and line drives to infielders close by, they throw it back quickly, and you try to hit them right back).
