As you all already know, pretty much everything these days is sponsored — particularly when it comes sports broadcasts on television. Not that this stuff is exclusive to sports, but after a Sunday of watching football, I can definitely see how absurd it’s all becoming.
The McDonald’s Pregame Show. The Sprint Halftime Show. The E-Trade Post-Game show. Just about every single segment of the game is “brought to you” by some corporate giant.
You know what I’m waiting for? ——- “Welcome the Subway Post Game show, presented by McDonald’s.”
I mean after all, if you’re not into McNuggets or burgers, surely the wide variety of sandwiches at Subway would appeal to more of the mass audience, or should I say “the massive” American audience…
