It Came From Sports Illustrated: Four Terrible Ads

I was perusing through my weekly Sports Illustrated when I came across these little gems....It makes you wonder how much these guys get paid.

In any case, enjoy!

Ad #1: Brett Favre: Wrangler Jeans

Ah, jeans. They just make Pro Football players want to go out into the middle of a field, wear a shirt that looks vaguely like your teams uniform, and play touch football with 8 or so other random guys. Seriously, when does this happen? And how many times do you sit in the passenger seat of a buggy with your foot on the dashboard and gaze dreamily into the sky? According to this ad, that's what men do.

Ad #2: Tiger Woods and Friends: Gillette Fusion Power Razors

Take Tiger Woods, Roger Federer, and some Soccer player noones heard of, and you've got the Secondary United States Sports All-Stars! Then, instead of doing an ad that makes sense, have them wear all-black suits and pretend to shave their ties. Bonus points for showing a nonsensical glowing orange calendar in the background!

Ad #3: Tom Brady: Movado Watches

"Hello, I'm Tom Brady. Yes, I am a homosexual."

Ad #4: Eli Manning: Citizen Eco-Drive Watches

Unstoppable from throwing interceptions!

Don't have the money to get a real superstar for your ad? Just put in second-rate QB Eli Manning! The irony will get you laughed out of the papers!

Note: No ill will meant towards any of you who happen to be homosexual. It's just implied from the Tom Brady ad. I support Gay Marriage, so please don't get angry at me.
