It's apples/oranges to compare Bayless and an NBA star talking about hamburgers. If the NBA player is talking about a certain brand of shoes and then not wearing them on the court when he plays, he's a shill and a hypocrite. If a musician is advertising a certain brand of guitar and then using something else most of the time, he/she is a shill and a hypocrite. Bayless is definitely a shill, and unless he and his family are scarfing down on BK regularly based on his culinary expertise (after all, he does consider it some of the best BBQ around, right?), then he's a hypocrite.
