Good morning, Adland. Here's what you need to know today:
- Jets quarterback Tim Tebow has been a brand ambassador for Jockey, Nike, FRS energy drinks, and now TiVo. And "not just because the name sounds cool." TiVo created the spots internally, which might not have been the best idea since the athlete sounds pretty -- possibly intentionally -- silly. He talks about how confusing television is (there's cable, satellite, the web, tablets, and phones!) and then calls TiVo a "magic box."
- Here's what people are saying about Harris Diamond, McCann's new CEO.
