More Business 101: Don't **** with your brand. Remember Crystal Pepsi? That one screwup came close to costing the company an entire year's profits.

There's a great basic marketing book titled What Were They Thinking? The author runs a "failed products" market research firm, and has thousands of products representing billions (yes, with a "b") of dollars worth of misguided product launches. Some of them actually have killed brands.

Beckett's other brand will come back to bite them, IMO
