Rick N. Backer Posted November 21, 2019 Share Posted November 21, 2019 Nike value up over 26 billion since signing Kaepernick. Those boycotts crippled them! Nike is the best marketed product of all time IMO. I think their shoes are crap, and their active wear is only slightly better, but it would be difficult to get my teenage kids to wear anything else. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mithrandir Posted November 21, 2019 Share Posted November 21, 2019 I remember wearing NIKE (as in rhymes with bike) when I was a teenager in the 1970's. When did it become NI-KEY? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nova Carmina Posted November 21, 2019 Share Posted November 21, 2019 I remember having that same discussion with my friends -- we also disagreed about Porsh vs. PorshUh. I guess it's not realistic to assume they recognized that if you're going to name something after the Greek goddess of victory, then you should pronounce the final vowel?

goose Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 Gilmore with the pick on Prescott. Pats 1st and ten on the Dallas 29, looking to extend their 7-0 lead. Nasty, wet and windy conditions... FG New England. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goose Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 Dallas coverts a 4th and 11 to the 45yd line. Or do they? Dallas had just been marched back on a phantom tripping call after getting a first down...so this reversal will be heartbreaking.

Nova Carmina Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 Interesting results yesterday: big wins, big losses -- but the Bengals still suck. I'll give the Dallas game a proper moan in the Cowboys thread, but man, that was your classic "what could have been" game. Too bad about the Pack, Principled Man! Who had the Raiders getting pummeled by the Jets? That sure did the Chiefs a favor. Is it a sign of the Patriots vulnerability that they keep winning these close games, or a sign that their dominance simply goes grinding on?

Rick N.

They're 10-1. They have one of the best defenses in the league. We've been hearing how vulnerable they are for almost half of their 19 season run of success. Brady's going to hit the wall eventually, since he's 42. He hasn't yet though. So the AFC championship is probably in Gillette this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair, the defense has done most of the heavy lifting this season. But when the offense has struggled, Brady has not been the principal problem.

Fordgalaxy Posted November 28, 2019 Share Posted November 28, 2019 https://www.espn.com...er-brawl-browns WTF, NFL? Many years ago there was a comparison made between 2 guys who got fined for their infractions. One guy was convicted of some minor type of domestic abuse and another one wore the wrong type of socks. The guy who wore the wrong socks was fined more than the abuser. Of course, now that would likely be different because of all the negative publicity about domestic abuse, but back then it showed where the NFL had their priorities.
