Carlos Ruiz Pimps Cintron and Ryan Howard Doesn't Like the Golden Girls

Two Phillies debuted their newest endorsements this week (I think, some people are telling me this Ryan Howard commercial is old?). He continued his relationship with Subway- starring in another commercial with Jared, who, by the way, has to have a CK model-like obsession with body image. It's literally the only reason he is relevant. Anyway, apparently Ry How isn't a Bee Arthur fan. Truth.
And then we have Chooch.
Philadelphia based energy drink company, Cintron, has hired Ruiz to capitalize on his Panamanian cuteness. I don't actually have words to describe how awesome a giant Chooch billboard is, other than to say that it clearly worked, since we're talking about it. Well played, Cintron people.
But I must say, I'm a little disappointed. I kind of always wanted to see Chooch in a Verizon commercial. Let's set the scene:
Chooch calls someone on AT&T and they have no idea what he's saying in his typical broken English. Then, Verizon guys comes by, hands him a phone, and BOOM, perfect Queen's English.
This dream will live on. Chooch will walk off. But I don't think we will ever see him in any TV spots.
