>>> get ready for tide for men, it works the same as the regular tide but is being marketed towards male buyers. here is how they do that. they put a football player on the label, hoping men will buy it. even though a lot of us buy tide on our own without assistance, they figure that saints quarterback drew brees will help to sell the new victory with fresh scent, even though the smell of a jersey would knock a bird off a telephone pole at 500 yards.
