Smh. That is awful.

Now I'm pumped for the next play and want to buy a Toyota.

Look, I work in advertising. Sometimes I wonder what dipshit strategist is selling these ideas to his clients and to the NFL. There's such a thing as NEGATIVE brand recognition, and this is a textbook example. It's one thing if you pay a network/league to arrange to have the announcers say "And now the offense has entered the red zone, brought to you by Toyota." But putting it on the field is just going to piss people off and create a distaste for your brand and your advertising, no matter where it appears from then on.

This is just stupid.

You looking for copywriters?

I don't think that is actually on the field.

My hopes is this is just a test run. Once they get significant negative blowback, they"ll probably go another way. At least in the short term.

Samples or GTFO.

I guess that's better than the "Tampax Red Zone."

Rain Man 08-08-2014 09:22 AM

I noted that in the game thread. It was the worst thing I've ever seen. I was horrified and angry. I now hate Toyota and will never buy one of their vehicles again.

It's ok. Apricot isn't one of their main colors anyways.
