    Someone needs to tell Rush Limbaugh about this campaign so he can make a bigger ass of himself.



    really though, that is a terrible ad campaign - I wonder what firm accepted thousands (if not millions) of Reebok's $'s to come up with that crap.



    they could replace one of his lost sponsors
    fuck 'em if they can't take a joke

    cheaterville is to OUT cheaters...post their pic and say "LOOK A CHEATER!"

    the others are for people wanting to cheat.

    i'd be willing to bet that close to 100% of the males on that site are the "generous users" while all the females are the "attractive" aka: escort users. :roll:

    I'm not into the marketing fitness as "extreme" with the crossfit thing. If you ever watched it and are into fitness it would make you cringe. Bad message. Excercise should not be handled as an extreme sport...very unhealthy. And the cheat on your girlfriend thing is pretty self explanatory.

    Apparantly alot of people were offended by it and Reebok was so embarrassed about it they lied for a week knowing about it and then issued a statement doing a 180 degree turn. This after coming off a 25 million dollar lawsuit in the fall for lying to consumers. These are essentially the reasons for my post. Just getting the info out there is all. :D

    I guess I don't get all the upraor over that ad, there has been a lot worse. The message I got from it was that you wouldn't cheat on your girlfriend, so why would you cheat on yourself and your workout - that it should be important to you.

    Speaking of the crossfit, a friend of mine brought it up over the weekend and said she was going to try it out. I think I did a good job of convincing her to really research it before she just threw herself into it!

    I don't read it that way but to each their own.
