GM ends Nine-Year Tiger Woods Endorsement Deal

November 24, 2008

General Motors Corp. has discontinued endorsing Tiger Woods due to cash flow problems at the Auto Maker. The Company has stated that “budget efficiencies during a difficult economy” was the reason… in other words… General Motors no longer has money to sponger the professional golfer.

The Company however had no problems funding a private jet to fly to Washington DC to ask for a bailout.

    Poor Tiger Woods, just can’t catch a break these days now that he’s married to his beautiful model girlfriend and now has a child….I guess he’ll just have to rely on Gatorade, Accenture, EA Sports, Gilette, NetJets, Golf Digest, Nike, and TAG, to receive the other 3/4 of his yearly paycheck when he’s not busy being one of the best golfers and one of the most highest paid athletes in the world.

    Oh, and Founder, of course GM flew by private jet to D.C….only important people get the bailout money, remember?

    I’m guessing this means that GM is now looking for budget celebrities, like someone who was an extra in “Law & Order” or some sort of trained animal. “General Motors: Now accepting less than the best.”
