Can you say sell out?

So I just saw "The World's Fastest Man", Michael Johnson in a Coors Light commercial. Granted the man was a fantastic athlete 12 years ago. Truly the height of talent, but why the hell do we need to see him now? I'm sure he's not competing in anything right now, so why is he now the new Coors Light spokesman? Couldn't they get anyone better (more contemporary) to shill for their warm-piss-tasting beer?

I guess everybody's gotta pay the rent.
