    Does GM have to buy its way out of the contract with Tiger? How much does that cost?


    Seems like 89-year-old Jack Niklaus would be a better shill for the 2009 Buick Adagio. And who says Detroit doesn't innovate? Every new Oldsmobile is equipped with the ultimate anti-theft technology: undesirability.

    I hate those desperate, last minute cost saving ideas. They reek of fear and urine. And they never work.

    With Tiger out of the picture the AVERAGE age of Buick drivers just went up 5 years from 72 - to really freaking ancient.

    @Xylo: What about the METS? (Citi is still paying them $400 million for stadium naming rights.) And what about Manchester United? (AIG, $125 million to get their name on the jerseys.)

    Just like Corporate America to kick a guy when he's down and disabled.

    No worries, the Buick LeSabre is such a great car that it practically markets itself!

    And this is the first I am hearing, that Tiger had a GM endorsement. Obviously, it wasn't worth that 8mil.
