Beenhakker and Smolarek Cash In On Our Euro Involvement.

There’s nothing better to prove a star status in the team than the number of commercials a particular player or manager is involved in. It turns out that the biggest star of the Polish team is……..our coach Leo Beenhakker. Not surprisingly, our best scorer, Ebi Smolarek, also received a modest piece of a commercial pie

Personally, I expected more players to be involved in the advertising campaigns. The fact that only Smolarek and Boruc (and maybe Zurawski) are recognized by your average Pole only proves that we are the team without individuals. That’s why our success is ascribed to the great leader and tactician: Leo Beenhakker. Here are Don Leo’s advertisment’s for BZWBK bank:

and beer’s Tyskie campaign of putting out Polish flags:

Smolarek, on the other hand, is involved in Pepsi ad:

and he also recommends Smasung’s LCD’s:

I also know that Artur Boruc is involved in McDonald’s ‘child escort’ action but I was unable to find his ad on the net (although I’ve seen it on TV). However, you can see this horrible trailer:

and a picture promoting the campaign (Artur looks quite slim there, doesn’t he?)

Moreover, Smolarek and Boruc have individual contracts with Puma, whereas Kuba Blaszczykowski plays for Nike. I already saw their billboards on the streets but was unable to find the pictures on the net.
