You know, I really do enjoy watching the nightly news. I also like to zone out with some Law and Order or Enterprise, (even though the newest Star Trek series sucks raw eggs. You can go to my website and do a search to see about myself and run-ins with "trekkers" or "Trekkie's")
There is a problem however.
I am sick of hearing about men's penis problems every night. After watching these ads for Viagra, Levitra, Cialis, and noticing who is doing the endorsing and what these companies are endorsing, I have come up with a conclusion.
Professional Sports will eventually break your penis and you will no longer be able to "get it up" without the aid of medication.
Laugh... But its true! Wear a jock strap now, Mr. Happy isn't going to be so happy later. If you enjoy sports, it will affect your sexual health! Let's take a look as some of the erectile dysfunction medications, shall we?
- Viagra: Mark Martin, Official MLB Sponsor, NASCAR
- Levitra: Mike Dikta, Official NFL Sponsor
- Cialis: PGA Tour Partner, (so far have not seen any sports celebrities yet, just some older people rolling around in tubs), I did see a Cialis ad on Sunday night during Enterprise. One of the lines I recall from it was:
Although a rare occurrence, men who experience an erection for more than 4 hours should seek immediate medical attention.
Well, I guess that is useful if you happen to forget your nine iron during the PGA tour.
I remember when I was younger, culture taught us that men in professional sports were a bunch of virile stud men. From looking at all of these erectile dysfunction ads, I can only assume that Mr. Varsity might be able to perform on the court, but just can't manage in the bedroom. I guess this is why they are using Sports Personalities to peddle the snake oil. It makes it more comfortable if you see the Super bowl winner say "Hey, my dick is broken too! Try these pills! They'll get you back in the game!"

You've gotta hand it to the marketing guys, this is a step up from Bob Dole.

LOL... Maybe... but still, what does it say about the world of sports?

Well, Wilt "The Stilt" Chamberlain wasn't available...

Well, he should be in the "salt peter" endorsers category.

The saltpeter guys have got their work cut out for them. They've got to get a better name. I mean, what kind of imagery does that invoke? How 'bout Limpestra or Droopilia or something?

Funny stuff, Tek. That's just it. You don't want to hear about my erectile dysfunction -- which doesn't exist -- any more than I want to hear about your yeast infection, which I'm sure has never been a problem for you. Yet, there it is. In our faces. So to speak. We could be on other ends of the couch, or other ends of the earth. In the end, we don't want to know about what goes on in other people's underpants. In other matters, your site is fabulous. I know nothing about that tech stuff, Tek. Someday I'm hoping to find the secret code that unscatters my menu. It's so effed up that I decided it looked artistic enough to abandon. Thanks for the laughs. CW
