When Olympic Endorsements Go Bad
Posted by Seth at 6:12 AM on August 30, 2008
· Nothing makes Olympic champion gymnast Shawn Johnson's taco pop like the zingy taste of Ortega salsa. Beat that, bro! [YouTube]
· We'd like to introduce you now to Pixie Leah and Darth Wicket, who are both on the losing end of an intergalactic battle to retain their dignity. [YouTube]
· We're concerned. Not only does Sarah Palin have limited governing experience, but she used to have come dribbles running down the side of her mouth! Just a heartbeat from the presidency, folks. [Perez Hilton]
· The Peach Pit lives! [Eater LA]
· And finally, some bittersweet news. Vulture editor Dan Kois is heading off into the sunset, and we'll no longer have regular and easy access to awesomeness like this. Farewell, Dan! You'll be missed. [Vulture]

You know what does not make one's taco pop? Eating a bunch of Mexican food and then tackling the uneven bars.

So the brothers are trying to make her taco pop? This is too funny and must go down in the pantheon of funniest Olympic endorsements.

You made me click on a Perez Hilton link. Now I feel tainted and out of sorts.

Seriously? Popping tacos? Those ad-wizards should be fired. What next? Shawn Johnson promoting the game "corn-hole"?
