Can you say LeBron James + $90 MILLION = Nike? You think > he doesn't wear their shoes? I don't know if Rick Bayless actually eats > at BK. That's kinda the point. Actually, I had two points: 1) that a culinary expert hawking BK is vastly different than an NBA player hawking BK and that 2) the more apt analogy is the NBA player and shoes. I am aware that it would be unlikely that the player would advertise a brand and not wear them. I also find it unlikely that Bayless eats BK regularly, or thinks that their cue is some of the best around. Ergo, he is simply a shill and hypocrite. Jeff Edwards paranoianospam@sbcglobal.net
