Default Scents + ethics/morality

I'd guess that you could apply the "THIS is GOOD! " program to every pro in
every sport for everything they endorse.

Is a Merc a better engine that Johns/Suz/Yam/issan ??? or does the pro ride
it because he either gets paid or gets the
motor/boat/bait/reel/rod/shirt/pants/tacklebox/etc etc. cheaper or even for
free?? Of course he gets a "deal" to endorse the product.
Better not stop at scents.

Does Tiger Woods reeaaalllly use Nike clubs or whatever??? Perhaps not...
I've heard that they are made to the specs of some other brand of club that
he liked. You and I can't even buy the same thing. At least I can buy the
same scents, if I want to ( I think ).

The reality is... if the guy is a pro, he is endorsing SOMETHING that may or
may not work as well for us as it does for him. The simple answer is a pro
is a pro and has to do it to make his living doing what he loves. It is NO
different in baseball, football, ( do you really think those ugly nose
bandages help a running back run?? ) or tennis, etc..

A well sponsored pro is a well paid ( you insert the WORD of your choice
here), and everyone knows it. It, unfortunately, is the sports program that
we all support by buying the same stuff that they sell. But, sell it is..
the product may or may not really work as well as the pro makes out.....and
I suspect everyone knows that.

Absolutely Rich. These guys are working just like us. Roland Martin jumped
ship from Ranger to Triton in the blink of an eye. No problem there.
