Title: Who should we get to endorse gE?
Post by: Pete on June 09, 2021, 02:49:31 PM
Dennis Dodd's article today reminded me that endorsement deals will be permissible for players in 5 states within 3 weeks.  Those are Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Mississippi and New Mexico.  I think we should go after the Bama punter.  I don't know who that person is, but they would make a wonderful paid spokesperson for gE, IMO.

"I rarely punt, or sports blog, but when I do I prefer free kicks and goEMAW.com"

Maybe we could get them to do this after every punt:  :combofan:

One of those teams has to have a player with a funny name or something

Yeah.  If there is a "Dick Dong" on New Mexico's squad, let's sign him.

Has to be a player in order for this to be most fun.

HOWEVER....I think there could be some excitement in seeking spokespersons from Mike Leach's Mississippi State squad.  :fatty:

I think we need to get BSAC and our people to reach out to the MSU football operations people and see if Coach Leach would at least not oppose our efforts to enrich the lives of his players.  I mean, after years of taking footballs directly into the butt from Coach Leach, he owes us, right?  If you cannot beat them, join them and offer sponsorship opportunities to them, as the old saying goes.

What about a coach's son or grandson?  Kaidyn Saban for gE!

Find the best juco player in Mississippi that we have a chance of landing and choose him.

To maximize TV time, perhaps we reach out to Bama's FG/XP kicker.  :dunno:

Bama. a WR or something.

Maybe it will create a connection if he decides to transfer and would give Cats U a shot.

Also, would kind of make me feel like I have a reason to cheer for them, and it would be fun to cheer for a team that can actually win P5 games.

Always blows my mind when people I consider "around my age" have kids approaching adulthood.
