TAG/Heuer: Tiger's It.

Turns out Tiger was bouncing a lot more than a golf ball on the end of his club. Now, sponsors who are reeling to keep up with public appearances are scrambling to drop the guy from their ads before their products get driven into the sand trap.
But how to take away millions from the athlete of the decade and still maintain those future contracts (ah, the certainty of counting on the public's short term memory), poses quite a dilemma.

We totally get the housewives point of view here. Hell, we think the guy behaved like an ass too. Yet we can't help thinking that there's a way to turn all of this adversity to a sponsor's favor. So, with a eye to being wise asses, and a complete disregard for any one's feelings - we took the liberty of doing a quick redesign for the new Tag/Heuer-Tiger Woods ads.

We thought we'd run these up the pin flag, so to speak and see if we can put it in the hole. Madison Avenue, please, no thanks needed.

In the "truth can be stranger than fiction" column, just a few hours after we posted our ideas for Tag/Heuer's Tiger Woods campaign, CNN reported that the upscale timepiece company has decided to support Tiger and will be featuring his image on the front page of their website Monday morning. Perhaps we should be thinking more seriously about moving our offices over to Madison Avenue?
