It's not all MAGA

They make I think 1 shoe in America.

The rest is putting money in foreign manufacturers pockets. But they do make a damn good shoe

Under Armour only makes basketball apparel? That sounds like an alternative fact.


I mean Steph Curry, a basketball player, is why UA has been so hot lately. They weren't number 2 until they started focusing on basketball.

No, you just come across as a kid. You lied about purchasing power because you don't know anything. You also don't know anything about the stock and lol at referencing calling a broker. That's how I know you're a kid. People that have a clue about "financial acumen" would lol at someone saying that.

So what you're saying is you are unable to defend anything you've said so you call me a liar. You think calling a broker is kid stuff when that is the fricking title. And you're also unwilling to compare assets that generate income from your portfolio.

Neat I've never seen such a big pussy unwilling to justify their statements. Are you a liberal?

Their corporate HQ is in Boston which is home to the Patriots and Brady = All MAGA.

Where has Puma come out on the MAGA stance?

If by hot you mean not #2, then yes. They climbed the ranks when they signed Steph and started making "cool" stuff urban American likes.

aka basketball gear

I'm not going to boycott UA

But it's so idiotic to see Bud Light and the NFL and UA get pushed into thinking their customer base cares about this shite.

I'm honestly more annoyed about UA acting like hipster SJWs will hurt their bottom line than I am about UA taking a political stance I might not agree with.

Wait so you say because a long standing headquarters is coincidentally based where the patriots play football and Donald trump is from makes them MAGA?

Holy shite so I guess the guys who bombed the Boston marathon were MAGA because they lived there too!

That's how dumb your argument sounds.

This shite's always so amusing. Yeah, man, way to make a difference! You're a man of true courage and principle, and don't let anyone tell you any differently.

Don't let anything stop you from purchasing items strictly from manufacturers whose leadership holds personal beliefs that align with yours. It's the only way you'll ever be able to walk around with a clear conscience, and really the first step to defeating communism. Keep fighting the good fight!

I haven't made any normative statements. I called you a liar because you made up a stat about purchasing power that isn't based on reality.

I know what the title is. Ever take a FINRA exam, champ?

OK, now you're just trolling.

He's no doubt their most popular athlete, but you're kind of underselling their popularity and rising market share prior to signing him.

Agreed. I don't really wear their stuff anyway though. Running gear sucks.

The story about how Nike lost Curry to UA is pretty amazing.

quote:

It all went awry at a pitch meeting where Nike was trying to get Curry to re-sign with the brand. ESPN, quoting Curry’s father Dell, reports that an executive misstated Stephen Curry’s first name. Then, a PowerPoint presentation still featured Durant’s name–likely from older materials that were being reused for the Curry talks.

Never understood why people stop using products due to their support in policy. As if under armour will fill the effects of your missing sales. Not to mention there are hundreds of companies that are opposed to travel ban. You better stop using their products as well.

We are no safer than we were last week when the ban was in place. And if you think so you are a mindless zombie of politics.

Apparel companies can't say anything about this until they stop having their clothes made in sweat shops by kids for cents per day.
