Tavares, what are you doing? Endorsements?

[ULF_55]

The biggest scandel to me was when a lot of them sold out to Big Pharma and over prescibed opiods to a bunch of people with minor injuries.

I try to give the benefit of the doubt and hope maybe some were misled by falsified research, but any time big money is involved it seems like some malarky is too

You mean there are human doctors.

I know nothing can ever be normal with this team, but former captain hawking pseudo-science amulet was NOT on my bingo card for this season.

It's weird. I don't care what anyone says. It's weird.

You mean there are human doctors.

Precisely!

Where did I say most celebrities are virtuous?

I'm not advocating that endorsement deals need to end, but some liability to take on the endorsement deal would hopefully make some celebrities reconsider repping the worst of the worst companies.


If it was viable to stop all endorsements and all thst was marketed was the facts about a product, I'd be all for it... However, that's a fantasy. I'm more concerned with the outright lies and (in some cases) harmful products.

Saying that some equipment is 10% better than another might be true even if they're exaggerating most of the time.

Do you know what the word "nebulous" means?

There is no way a celebrity or Tavares should be held liable for anything as nebulous as this. That goes for Russel Brand too.

 

[Commander Clueless]

If you want to talk about logic and reason and what SHOULD happen, a celebrity (whether you like them or not) endorsing a product shouldn't even move the needle for you on said product one way or another.

Who the hell cares? It's meaningless.


...unless that needle is on the humour-o-meter, because John Tavares endorsing amulets IS amusing to me
