I'm so sure Tiger Woods drives a Regal...

I don't know about you guys, but I am so sick and tired of celebrity endorsements. I'm not going to go out and buy a piece of shit car, just because Tiger Woods supposedly drives one (apologies ahead of time to anyone who drives a Regal...), or Ballpark franks because Michael Jordan supposedly eats them. I'm even more tired of the companies thinking that I, as a consumer, am that stupid. Jeez... get some original ideas!!
I actually like the new Lexus commercials...

I gots me a 1984 Buick Regal just so I could be just like Tiger Woods.

I fully agree with you here.

Just because someone I may support sponsor's a type of clothing, or a drink, or a food of some sort doesn't mean that I am going to run out and buy it.

The same as this whole thing about cigarettes, just because someone is sponsored by a brand of cigarettes, doesn't mean that I am going to go out and take up smoking.

To any corporate Bodies out there just advertise the product, you will find more people want to try it than if it is sponsored by a personality.

This just pisses most of us off. Well it does me anyway.

I think Tiger Woods gave that car to his caddy.

Of course he drives one.

I've seen Tiger drive a Regal. It's right there in the commercials.

The whole reason that Buick and Nike and other comapanies pay Tiger Woods millions of dollars to make those commercials is because they make millions because of those commercials.

The mere fact that you know what product Tiger is advertising, or what brand of hot dogs MJ endorses, means that they are accomplishing their purpose. The commercials make you remember the name of the product.

A sports talk show host I listen to frequently has a periodic question he asks his callers to answer: "What product won't you buy because of who endorses it?"

In my case, Priceline.com is a service I wouldn't touch with ten foot pole, because the William Shatner commercials are ignorant and annoying. I will exhaust all other possiblities before shopping at K-Mart, because Rosie O'Donnel is their spokespaerson.

Hey Weird Harold I am totally with you on the Rosie thing. She annoys the hell out of me with her stand on guns, she is such a hypocrite!! BTW what's up with her head? Is it me or does she have like an "Enormous head"......
