Many famous sports players advertise sports products. Do the advantages outweigh the disadvantages?
The culture of celebrities being the face of commercial products,
such
as drinks and household materials, has permeated sports. Linking Words
This
essay will discuss both the merits and demerits of Linking Words
such
an arrangement, Linking Words
then
outline my reasons for arguing that the latter outnumbers the former.

such
a relationship reflects positively on their sales. Linking Words
For example

such
an arrangement, Linking Words
thus
