quote: Just curious, why do u like ua more than Nike? Reply Back to Top |
| I like the feel of UA's apparel more than Nike, and they're a smaller business. Real reason: they don't have sweatshops full of children making their clothes. ETA: when I played basketball, a pair of Nike shoes fell apart on me and also fricked up my ankle according to my doctor. This post was edited on 5/11 at 7:01 pm Reply Back to Top |
| Did he say why that happened? Curious cause I have noticed doctors will say things like that without really knowing anything about the shoe. Reply Back to Top |
| Lack of support in the ankle plus no arch support, which was on me. That and the tread falling off. Reply Back to Top |
| Makes sense, Nike does make good basketball shoes but doesn't sound like u had the right pair. Reply Back to Top |
| Ive since switched to cross trainers and I really like the UA micro quick ii that I've got now. Reply Back to Top |

| Is Auburn hooked up with Adidas? I was at Adidas America HQ here in Portland and there was an Adidas sign that said "Adidas is All In". Meant to take a picture but was too lazy. Reply Back to Top |
quote: What? Nike Dragged Oregon kicking and screaming out of the bottom-25 BCS teams all time and turned them into a perennial top-25 team. They also make the uniforms for Alabama, Penn St., USC and a whole host of other "traditional" teams. Auburn is about the only uniform set made by UA that isn't an absolute clusterfrick. Adidas makes nice uniforms, I suppose, but they basically just follow 2 or 3 years behind Nike. Reply Back to Top |

| Ever notice how the pig in their logo looks like he's shooting fire out his arse? Hot peppers in N.Arkansas! Reply Back to Top |
quote: Not when counting BCS Championships: Nike holds a 5-1 record in the current streak. 2006: 2007: 2008: 2009: 2010: 2011 I think Auburn's lone championship is the only one from a UA team. Nike had quite a streak before then with every one of them before except Tennessee's? Was Tennessee Adidas back then? Reply Back to Top |
| Is the outline patch of a logo worth flipping out over? Reply Back to Top |
| "we would have beaten LSU and Bama this year if Nike didn't frick up our logo!" Reply Back to Top |
