The older I get, the more I demand a more wholesome form of entertainment. Bad Bunny does nothing for me at this stage of my life. And this whole dress thing, does the NFL really want to align themselves with that? That's like having fat people model for Victoria's Secret.
Here's the thing, the NFL guy who thinks this is an acceptable image for the NFL to align with, the guy who is allowing this to happen, should be fired. Just like that marketing team that thought they were doing good by reinventing Cracker Barrel's image, they got fired. Fire all the idiots that make bad marketing decisions.
I have a long list of companies I no longer give my money to. Many have made that list only recently, lol. Dominoes is the latest with the annoying treat yo self ads. UH-NOY-ING. I'd hate to have the NFL on that list but I'm afraid as time goes on, they're going to make it very hard to ignore the fact that it will become a league without grit and a warrior ethos. Think nickelodeon presentation as the full time go to broadcast style with female play by play announcers, pink uniforms, cross dressing singers and half time performers. To top it all off there's no more tackling the quarterback. It defies what football should be and how it should be presented.
Imagine the Marlboro Man wearing a bra while sitting on a horse. It wouldn't have become one of the more iconic marketing campaigns of the 20th century. The rugged, masculine, hard working man would not have gravitated to Marlboro cigarettes. (I always use this example because we covered it in marketing class when I was in college)
And this concludes Johnny's rant for the day. Thanks for reading.
