Bigelow Tea Blog: Talk Tea with Joe Torre, Phil Simms, and Terry Francona

Teaball: The Art of Plugging and Sounding Lame

NFL legend Phil Simms, former NY Giants quarterback and sportscaster for CBS, confirmed that he drinks at least four cups of Bigelow tea per day while Terry Francona, Manager for the Boston Red Sox, is an enthusiastic fan of Bigelow’s Green Tea with Pomegranate.

... Joe Torre, LA Dodgers Manager and Bigelow loyalist, told Cindi: “As soon as I found out how good green tea was for me, Bigelow was easy to love. Going up to Connecticut, meeting your parents, it was like being in somebody’s home. That means a lot when you’re talking about using a product like Bigelow Tea…they’re the people who basically invented it…if you knew how passionate they were, it helps.”

Hat tip to Awful Announcing.

No bar contains more apple sauce! Endorsed by Rainier Wolfcastle, these high energy snacks are made of apple cores and Chinese newspaper. The Powersauce corporation sponsored Homer Simpson's attempt to climb the Murderhorn.

Maybe for the same reason Betus.com got to advertise here under the guise of objective analysis of baseball gambling strategy.

I don't think this one's in the Bet US category. It looks like it was submitted by someone and posted by Greg, probably as something amusingly stupid.

Greg Franklin is in the pocket of Big Tea. It's embarrassing.

Yup. The blurb was just misdirection. You don't know how deep the conspiracy runs.
