From a marketing perspective, this has been a successful and brilliant campaign. Look at all of the free publicity and internet backlinks it has received! I wouldn’t be writing this comment now if they went with a banal, uncontroversial ad.

I thought they’d shown that sex before a game actually Helped (an Afterglow effect), but only if the game was less than 8 hours after the sex. So sex the night before doesn’t really help on a statistical level. Might help you sleep better though…

” Full credit to the opposition, we were pinned deep in our own half with plenty of pressure on the flanks so we’ve kicked our ‘abstain for the game’ campaign into touch. We appreciate the idea wasn’t for everyone and we apologise if we’ve offended some fans.

“Into touch?” “Pinned deep in our own half?” Maybe that’s rugby talk; I have no idea what they’re on about.”

=> Yes, that’s rugby talk. When a team has the ball but is close to their own try line, it’s common to just kick the ball (often into touch) as far away as possible, thus giving the ball back to the other team but gaining some ground. I think that an American equivalent would be when an American football team punts the ball on a 4th down?
Anyway, what he means is that their ad campaign is a failure and they have no idea how to get it back on tracks, so they are just going to abandon their idea rather than keep trying to defend it.

BTW: another funny thing about pre-workout sex and testosterone level, is that a few athletes who were caught by doping tests with abnormal testosterone levels tried to blame it on sex and alcohol… Though usually without much success.

Just another example of that tired old trope that women drain the ‘potency’ of men out through the tip of their penis.

Science disproved the idea of ‘sexual’ energy in the early 20th C. and are still having to slap down this idea of the woman as energy draining Succubus even now.

It’s definately anti-women in that awfully mudane ‘never mention women but imply that contact with them will make you weak/diseased’ idea. Pretty sickening in this day and age, and worse, as you’ve pointed out, it’s phallo-centric anyway. No-one whose made this claim of ‘sexual’ energy has ever wondered if a woman’s vital essence could be sucked out through her vagina.

great post, though would just like to point out that Sean Fitzpatrick is a former captain of the All Blacks :)

I will say, when my boyfriend plays sports sex seems to help him focus on winning, rather then the little part of his brain demanding to get off. One could even argue sex HELPS them focus on the game, as one ‘need’ has been sated.
