A question of no significant value

[packinpatland]

I was out mowing the lawn yesterday, on my John Deere tractor, and it occured to me as I looked out over the green and yellow front end, why did John Deere not ask Brett to be their spokesperson? Seeing Brett sitting on a red and black Snapper just doesn't look right, too 'Falconlike'

Just a rambling thought..................I do my best thinking on that darm mower. :cool:

I saw some other stuff he was pimping. Not the toothpaste, cant remember what it was but it had Favre on the box and came with a DVD. Anyone see it?

I am glad he has never done a lame ass Chunky Soup commercial. Those are the worst. Favre has done some bad ones though, but i always laughed at the "I would have" bit :cool:

You four dipshits.Thats IS the toothpaste, so you are now the 6th dipshit!

Priolosec was the stuff I saw. What is it even for? Did anyone see the DVD?

[FavreChild]

I would be interested in hearing from Brett all the commercial opps he's rejected over the years.

Speaking of Chunky Soup....recall Kurt Warner and his "dumplin's commercial. ...Nice avatar as usual, KilrB. Stupid Rams. 'Member when they used to be public enemy number one just a few years ago? I love beating their brains out now. but it's just not that same as the Kurt Warner years and when he used to claim that he'd have five Super Bowl rings...

[Guiness]

Quite a list RG - leave it to someone with a consumer nick like yours to track all that stuff down.

You did miss at least one - those commercials he did for Starter shoes a year or so ago. But you mention a deal with Nike. Is that for apparel, and not shoes? I'd think it would have to be.

[Tyrone Bigguns]

Even though I'm HIGH as m*therf*cka, Tyrone knows that if Brett played in NYC he would make Manning his bitch.

[BallHawk]

I know he sponsers Starter.

Nike owns Starter... So did I miss it or did I get it? Inquiring minds want to know....? :mrgreen:

Prilosec is "the little purple pill" that's for acid reflux. Wasn't Elway the poster boy for reflux?

[Merlin]

When Favre starts pushing Viagra, it may be time for him to retire. Just a thought!

[Guiness]

Nah - people who drive riding lawnmowers never need Viagra. A couple tours around the yard on one of those vibrating beasts will do the trick!

[MJZiggy]

Did anyone ever find a link to that Visa commercial he did some years back? That was hilarious.
