Recycler

while people here in san antonio may dislike the phoenix suns, it's hard to dislike steve nash. afterall, we're the team who gave him the bloody nose and hip check into the scorers table (with a bit of acting by nash). nash is a scrappy canadian, a fan of universal health care and a protector of the environment.

"steve nash, the two-time most valuable player, released a commercial tuesday, which was earth day, promoting his new nike sneaker, the "nike trash talk," which is made of recycled materials.

nash's production company, meathawk, produced the spot, which features nash as the "$60 million man" and plays on his numerous on-court collisions.

"i'm the first athlete ever to wear a recycled high-performance shoe," nash said, "and since today is earth day, i created a viral commercial for the shoe. filmmaking, obviously, with my production company, is a passion of mine, and the environment is a passion of mine, too. to put the two together is a lot of fun.""
