Sachin, Beckham, Sania Mirza, Broad.. the list goes on. Yes they were/are the brand ambassadors of the billion dollar German company Adidas.The caption Impossible is nothingcan easily be related to these stars,considering their hard work and stardom. But gradually Adidas realised they need to concentrate on personalities who match the caption, so they are in talks to sign off some of the real" Impossible to Possible" makers.
Raja... as the name suggests The King, and indeed he has proved that! Raja is the Environmental minister(supposedly the telecoms minister) who sold 2G spectrum at the price of Bread. Well when we have been hearing about MP's fraudulent activities for years and the usual figures are always in Crore's, but finally after all these years we have a winner , the scam almost a % of National GDP (60k crore..now stop counting the Zeroes, I gave up a while ago). Clearly a powerful contender for "Impossible is Nothing" , So Adidas approached Raja with a reasonable price, but Raja astonishingly agreed to sport the gear for 10rs. Well under the table is a headache, which the German giant is not aware. Earlier he was referred as Jungle Raja, then DMK Raja and now Spectrum Raja
No 2 : pAuL tHe OcToPuS... Fortune teller
For those of you who think that octopuses are nothing more than a 8 legged monster,Think again. Introducing Paul the fate decider. Over 50 years of football, and football has always been the show stealer during every world cup, but this year the Parrot and the Octopus stole the show. In India we do Holy Yagams for our cricket team to play well (in the pubs,clubs,with people's feeling) , the level of belief has gone to the next step. Paul's prediction finally paid off and he is now retiring, tired of the kicking he had to do. Adidas tried to design a footwear impressed by the Impossible prediction by Paul,but to their dismay Paul picked Nike. Poor Adidas should have sticked to designing footwear for sportstars. After watching all this I am now naming a price of 10k paise for the Octopus and if the owners are ready to sell, then am game for it. But only for 2 years as Paul is due to expire 2012 before the next football.
No 1 : Alfie the Oldest DAD
As we are all Adults (except me),I take this daring step to introduce Alfie Patten. For those who think he is just an other 13 year old, nope he is the father of Maisie Roxanne. Adidas tried to rope in with millions of Pounds with a lot of Tax waiver, but poor Alfie hardly knows how much nappies cost, does not even understand the word TAX. Now the question is will they join the same school together? If Maisie cries and so does Alfie, then its as Father as Kid!! Surely this deserves to be the first in "Impossible is Nothing" Category. For in a small part of India when the Biology teacher started the class with the lesson " Reproduction... organs..", blah blah.. the kid shut his ears saying " Siva Siva". The kid is now the great blogger of this post. ( Note : No sarcasm means truth) . Anyways hope Maisie ( baby of Alfie ) does not get married before Alfie does. Check the video for a exclusive interview with the Father of the Millennium. Oh and Happy Father's day :) !

Oh and I forgot to mention, I declined the offer from Adidas long time ago.
