shillin' for nike + murphy family conundrum

When did Charlie Murphy become funnier and more relevant than Eddie Murphy? This has to be one of the great mysteries of comedy. The man who gave the world Billy Ray Valentine is now reduced to a megalomania where he has to play all the parts, and none of them are funny...while his brother lets some writers - and in this case ad writers!!! - feed him material that's actually worth watching. Its a travesty!

Watch him shill for Nike's Air Jordans here...I don't think he ever says the word Nike, but you know they're behind it, and you've got to give them their props for staying firmly in the background. There's a whole website of Leroy behind this, and some pretty funny stuff back there!
