The picture to the right should be an important lesson that not all endorsements deals are a good idea. Some are obvious bad ideas on product endorsements: enemas, erectile dysfunction drugs and toupees hair replacement systems, to name just a few.
Sure everyone likes hot dogs. They are a staple at any tailgate. No one, however, ever -- ever -- wants to be photographed putting one in their mouth. The inevitable and obvious phallic symbolism is simply overwhelming. Carson Palmer, who already hosts the "Carson Palmer Cornhole Classic," not only agreed to be the featured endorser for extra long hot dogs. He was photographed with his mouth wide open putting it to his mouth for the ad. This ended up in the coupon section of Sunday papers all over Ohio.
