    Nike will not come close to matching Adidas on the proposal, I know that for a fact.

    If UW is going to keep claiming they are poor and continue to ass rape their fans on prices they fucking better take the deal that is likely to be 5-7 million more a year.

    The difference between Nike and Adidas is nothing compared to what it was 10-15 years ago. Take the money and pray that Adidas is more of a partner with us than Nike was.

    Agree that Adidas will pay us better and will prioritize us moreso than Nike will.

    Perhaps I've been living under a rock while playing too much recreational soccer, but since when has UW claimed lately that they are poor? And moreover when and where are they ass raping fans on prices? I'm really interested in hearing your take on that one given that I think you could argue that for a program that we have, we actually ask less out of our alumni than many other programs.

    Miami is still adidas. My homies there seem to appreciate the changes made to the uniforms. More money will be good.

    Fuck Nike and it has nothing to do with the ducks. Nike is a basketball company in my mind for whatever reason. I hate basketball and wish the NBA would die a fiery death.

    Adidas makes everything I use and wear better than Nike does.

    Sure.

    Nike is an AMERICAN every-sport-company. Adidas = Nazi soccer and every other phaggy Euro sport - centric company. If you like Adidas, you are a Nazi, a globalist and you HATE AMERICA! They aim to take over all sports and, when they do, promote the Euro-phaggy sports and bury the American sports. That is their aim: global domination.

    Go ahead. Kill American football. Just don't come back here crying to me when it happens.

    Guess it's a good thing Nazi's,hence Adidas are protected by the 1st amendment then (sans Washington st) creepycoug. To color their uniforms anyway they want, Express their slogans free from persecution and liberal backlash. Go get'em adidas, dump a little more deep purple and black into your purple color concoction. Hint just find a 1990-97 practice Jersey. That's the right shade.

    Yella find and post..you're lightning fast at that chit

    I won't come here to cry. I have your cell and I know you're there for me. Creeps has a hard edged persona here but he's a swell guy away from the workplace...likes walks on the beach and Susan Sarandon movies.

    Hey you watch your mouth. Sarandon has held up nicely for an old broad, and I'd still pay good $$ to have her make me black and blue with those jugulars.

    10-15 years ago I would have been pissed if UW switched to Adidas. However they have done a really good job over the last 5 years or so closing the “cool factor” gap with Nike. While Nike is still king kids fuck with Adidas.

    The added bonus of getting a larger pay out, and more focus from Adidas being their premier PAC 12 / west coast program means I’m all for it. Adds another semi interesting dimension to the Oregon rivalry as well.

    i'm with this. adidas has hired 4 of nike's best designers and it's really shown in the 'cool factor' and i think it's a big reason adidas jersey's have gotten much more normal as of late. it's crazy what talent can do for a company or team.

    As far as coker's point there is no way Jen and co stay with nike at a 5-7 million dollar gap. I do think UW is at least making Nike sweat.... at the beginning of spring ball everything was branded with the W and the swoosh, but 4 or so practices in they've removed the swoosh from all videos and pictures. they've actually gone back and reposted all the pictures and videos even from day 1 and 2 without the swoosh.

    but here's an example of the before and after. seems too coincidental:





    feels good to be right
    Yep

    On a side note is that highest to lowest based on coaching salary?

    With Sarandon, there’s also the possibility of a freaky mother-daughter threesome with Eva.

    True story. I've always wanted to hit that. It's in my top 10, and #1 in the older broad category. Something tells me it would be memorable.
