Ted Lilly Fan Club Gives Honda Motors, Makers of Acura TL, A Second Chance...

... to connect with the only demographic willing to purchase and repurchase a car, every. damn. year. Those consumers? TedHeads. The Car? A Torrance, CA built, affordable workhorse, the Acura TL.

A few weeks back, we began a vendetta against Honda Motors for not giving credit-where-credit-was due. Namely, not admitting that their inspiration, ne reason d'etre, was our own 5'10" hero, Ted "Friend of Animals/Built in 300-Horsepower Engine, National League All-Star, and Bad Ass Mother F*~cker" Lilly.

Part of our diatribe was an email to Mr. Steven Center, Vice President of Advertising and Public Relations at American Honda Motor Co (parent of Acura). Shockingly, we heard nothing in response. Not being afraid to admit when we're wrong (and looking for handouts), we write again.

Dear Sir,

Despite immortality, the inability to feel pain, and ability to speak to animals, Ted Lilly does sometimes make mistakes. Whether these mistakes are hanging curve balls or destroying door fixtures with accidental use of his superhuman strength, Ted always gets back out there and makes things right. Our motto, as the Ted Lilly Fan Club, is to live like Ted. As such, our letter from 7 July 2009 was a mistake and we apologize profusely.

We would like to offer our services to bury the hatchet like a Ted Lilly curve buries his opponents. Our offer is this:

We will attend the upcoming All Star Game in St. Louis and "blog" about our experiences, featuring the stellar performance of one Ted Lilly along with the sleek, power, and drivability of the Acura TL.

We will rent or precure (by other, possibly illegal, means) an Acura TL and drive to and from said event.

As you well know, the future of new media is in the world of social networking, blogs, and these twitter thingy's. We can provide access to that world and, along with it, access to the free spending and ridiculously well paid world of TedHeads... worldwide.

Our internal TLFC research has shown that TedHeads have 82% more disposable income than non-TedHeads and that we are 75% more likely to be swayed by automakers who court us directly. Numbers clearly don't lie, sir--you'd be doing your shareholders a diservice by NOT hiring us.

Please let us know if you would like us to represent your brand in this manner and likewise we can decide if we'd like you to represent our brand--very much a symbiotic relationship.

We can be reached at tedlillyrules@gmail.com.

Warmly,
TLFC

That's about it, Tedheads. We admit when we're wrong. Now, Steven Center-it's your turn.
