Oh, to be a fly on the wall at the Accenture meeting, when company representatives decided that Tiger Woods wasn’t an appropriate spokesperson for their company. You know, after they had the tag line, “Go on, be a Tiger.”
To be fair, hindsight makes this situation ironic, so you can’t fault Accenture or say they made a big mistake in hiring Tiger Woods in the first place.
The really funny times are when companies make huge blunders and say the dumbest things. You’d think corporate leaders would be bright enough to keep their traps shut sometimes, but apparently the stupid button gets pushed by even the best of them. Marketers don’t often do any better….ah, some good laughs in those links for you!

See - I think the fact that Tiger was stupid ebnough to sleep with every female in town (and out) is no body’s business except Elin - and don’t tell me she didn’t know that 60 mil would mean sharing the tiger.
I can’t understand why men need to screw other women - i just don’t get it.

Who’s adding the Russian comments to your site?

It’s Russian spam…..from when I blogged about Russian books this past summer. I keep thinking it’ll go away eventually. Then Russia comes up again, and the cycle repeats.
