When NBA Players REALLY Want You to Play Call of Duty’s New DLC

Celebrities are, a lot of the time, a prime target for abuse. It's like shooting fish in a barrel. You can say things like, ‘Hey, Kanye, stop talking so much bollocks all the time,' or y'know, ‘Hey, Bieber, stop putting photos of your bare ass on a boat on social media. Enough already.'

Then we get into the whole shady area of why exactly the Kardashians are famous. Talentless billionaire ballaches-amundo. But there's one thing you can't fault any of these guys on: their ability to hawk whatever product comes their way.

They'll do anything in the name of cashtacular. We've seen Mr. T firing Snickers bars out of a tank, demanding that we GET SOME NUTS. We've seen Ozzy Osborne advertising I can't Believe It's Not Butter. Then there's my personal favorite, Hulk Hogan chewing on Honey Nut Cheerios and telling us they're better than a body slam.

With the advent of this spangly new ‘Internet' thing, it's easier than ever for these guys to sell us products. Reaching out to their millions of followers/fans/like-ers with a quick social media post is the way to go. Hence these totally-not-solicited-by-Activision Instagram plugs for Call of Duty DLC.
