- keyboardduder, on 10/10/2007, -2/+14How about Shaq doing a commercial for McDonald's and a few years later, he has a weight loss reality show for helping really fat children? Thats a damn good job-perpetuator if you ask me.
- cuoops, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3BOOM, tough actin Tinactin!!!
- keyboardduder, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3lamest report ever
- starfisch, on 10/10/2007, -2/+5next up: micheal vick's public service announcement for leash laws
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2That's not so much a strange endorsement as a lame commercial. Also Madden isn't athlete.
- thedoubler, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2'Twas probably Burger King methinks, but of course your point still stands.
- smurf22, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2There is no such thing as strange Athlete endorsements.. there is only MONEY!
- androothegreat, on 10/10/2007, -1/+3What about Kobe Bryant endorsing Nutella. I mean come on Kobe Bryant doesn't even know what Nutella is. They also pulled his endorsement when he went through the rape allegation trial.
- 0260, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2that basketball player and garmin... whaa?
- figshta, on 10/10/2007, -0/+11973 Noxzema Commercial with Joe Nameth
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZIZ8RU7HhM4 - AlaJoe, on 10/10/2007, -1/+2Joe Namath, Pantyhose. I am I the only one old enough to remember this. That is much more strange than Ali saying Decon KO's bugs
- in2deep, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1These are all weird and kind of funny....until you realize what they are getting paid to do such endorsements!
- Sven333, on 10/10/2007, -1/+2Do you not have a dog? Do you not want to make more money? Are you familiar with the federal law against dogfighting? Hi. I'm Michael Vick, and if you answered "no" to all 3 questions, I have an experimental dog training program that is guaranteed to turn your loafing lapdog into a money-making mongrel in only 3 minutes. Call 1-888-DOGFITE.
- bossm4n, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1That was the first thing that came to mind when I read the title. Here's the original commercial if you've never seen it. Joe Namath for Beauty Mist panty hose. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=23dBG27gnuU
- manicleek, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Pele - Viagra?
- riffola, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Seems US centric.
Murray Walker and Damon Hill for Pizza Hut and Michael Schumacher for L'Oreal are missing from the list. - drevin, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Are you kidding?I am pretty sure George made I fortune off that damn grill.I don't know anyone who doesn't have one.
- DIGGerPhelpsND, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Jonathan Papelbon for 125 Auto, just watch it.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w4PkgqTkF34 - keyboardduder, on 10/10/2007, -1/+1a little too expected AND early if you ask me
- karimthedream, on 10/10/2007, -1/+1I don't think many Americans have seen it but Roberto Alomar did a commercial for McCain's Frozen Punch in the early 90's in Canada while he was playing for the Blue Jays. The slogan was "Catch the Taste."
- sb76117, on 10/10/2007, -1/+1Michael Vick: Spay and Neuter your dogs! (so I don't have more dogs on my hands than i know how to torture and kill)
- Monstarr, on 10/10/2007, -1/+1The gayest endorsement in Australia was the Collingwood Football Club and a metro-sexual shampoo and conditioner. They were all in the gym getting changed after a game, and talking about what hair care regime they use. Cue gay canned laughter from a now delisted player and the rest is history.
- robfrye, on 10/10/2007, -0/+0My favorite: Jerry Glanville's Pigskin Footbrawl for the Genesis. Beyond the fact that you use a more or less football-shaped object, this medieval bloodfest had little to do with football, and the endorsement by Glanville was rediculous and played no part in the game other than a funny, anachronistic image on the title screen: http://www.genesisproject-online.com/Genesis/I-k/PigSkinFootBrawl.gif
- rot13ubercrypto, on 10/10/2007, -0/+0Swiss high-ranked tennis stars have some very weird ones.
- Roger Federer pushes Jura coffee machines (a local brand that's pretty average.) Patty Schnyder used to flog Hyundais or some similar low-end car, and (?) Martina Hingis was the spokeswoman for Zug, a washing machine/dishwasher manufactuerer. Weird. Not to mention what Alinghi endorsements were used for (Nespresso and banking.) - dranire, on 10/10/2007, -5/+3That was so gay. Gayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
- sittered, on 10/10/2007, -4/+1Reported. Expand your vocabulary, please.
- ONELOVE23, on 10/10/2007, -3/+0Kudos to Bill Klement to whoever he is for fear mongering. Spray this toxic ***** on yourself or die!!!
