    Texans turn down ad offer from adult video company
    By LARRY YOUNG Copyright 2009 Houston Chronicle

    Zero Tolerance, a Los Angeles-based adult video manufacturer, announced Wednesday it made a formal offer to the Texans to place its company logo on the team’s practice jerseys.

    The Chronicle reported last week that the Texans were offering marketing opportunities to companies wanting their logo on the team’s practice jerseys.

    The Texans have since declined Zero Tolerance’s offer, but are open to listening to offers from other companies.

    “We were contacted from an unsolicited ad agency and upon discovering it was an adult entertainment company, we shut it down,” said Tony Wyllie, Texans vice president of communications. “We will not consider, nor will we ever consider their offer.

    “We will not be associated with them.”

    Terms of Zero Tolerance’s offer to the Texans were unavailable.

    So needless to say, the Texans have zero tolerance for supporting that industry.

    The Orlando Magic should be sponsored by Ron Jeremy, Inc.

    just a PR move by zero tolerance. They weren't serious, and im sure they didn't make a real offer. they just wanted people to know about them and they've succeeded.
