Several people have now written in to suggest that the reason Rick Reilly clumsily metaphor-ized "bad spending habits" with "the Taco Bell Chihuahua" is because of a massive Chihuahua-related conspiracy that reaches the upper levels of Disney HQ.
The theory goes: Disney has forced all of its employees to start casually mentioning Chihuahuas in their everyday conversations and scribblings, in order to try to fool people into believing that Chihuahuas are still a big deal, because of the other-worldly blunder they made (while clearly coked to the gills) in green-lighting this:
If this Disney movie is truly somehow influencing ESPN's most famous scribes to drop Chihuahuas into their articles, I have to tip my cap.
Also, I am going to see this movie five times in the theaters.
David A. was the first to posit this excellent theory.
