Maybe they thought he was a relative of Howard Dean, and they wanted no part of THAT!

Dear Sara Lee,

If you're planning to rebrand as Howard Dean, reconsider.

Strangely enough, I mentioned this to my wife a few months ago after hearing a Jimmy Dean radio ad.

They were using someone who sounded like Dean, but it wasn't Dean.

Sara Lee gives money to anti-gun groups, so I work to avoid giving money to sara lee. This just makes it easier...

Sad, but that's life. "Sara Lee" like "Betty Crocker" probably never existed, now Jimmy Dean who is a real person and a fine country singer at one time, is sent out to pasture. Maybe he should have held to his company, but go tell it to Hewlett and Packard and to the brothers Warner. It's all corporate and faceless now and accountable to no one in particular.

While "Jimmy Dean" sausage is fairly good Owens is much better.

LOL

Dean, who lives just outside of Richmond, Virginia, said he had a verbal agreement
with former Chief Executive John Bryan.


Note to Jimmie Dean...
while Richmond, VA might be below the Mason-Dixon line...it's most likely that
you now are reaping the grapes of wrath for having forsaken The Nation Of Texas!

Same thing happened when Pepsi put Col. Sanders out to pasture. Bunch of tin-eared corporate smucks, IMO, who don't know the first thing about what it takes to be an entrepreneur and build a business from the ground up.

In my opinon, they haven't used him enough.

Maybe they thought people would confuse him with Glenn Campbell.

A spokeswoman for Sara Lee said the company chose not to renew Dean's contract in May because the "brand was going in a new direction"

Jimmy Dean Hyper Links?
