Just found an interesting picture showing Under Armour's market cap lately. Sorry if this has been posted elsewhere, but I doubt UA was able to even match anyone else's offer.

Re: millennials, this article was published today

Apple, Nike top the list of millennials favorite brands
The "2017 top 100 Millennial Brands" report averaged 15,000 responses since 2013 and found millennials' 10 favorite brands include Apple, Nike, Samsung, Target, Amazon, Sony, Wal-Mart, Microsoft, Coke and Google.

Adidas, Nintendo, Pepsi, Starbucks, Victoria's Secret, Ford, Forever 21, Jordan, American Eagle and Disney were next on the list.

No sign of Under Armor. Nor Russel Athletic.

Welcome to the swarm....it's always nice meeting new members....wait...haven't I seen your name somewhere?:p

He stole it from @dressedcheesesideboard or w/e his name was. I think @dressedcheeseside assassinated him. (ETA: only kidding, I know you're the original)

And @Cam , I've been noticing that trend with UA for the past year+. They're going in a wrong direction. Seemed to try to out-Nike Nike with shoes in the high-hundreds but priced themselves out of their core market. Can't be selling $150 Curry's in Kohls or Sears. Now seem to be trying to get back to where they belong price-wise but the damage is done.

FWIW, I like Adidas' uniform looks. The first four teams I looked up that they sponsor:
TAMU

Sharp

Miami

Not bad

Indiana:

Not bad.

These are all unis from last year, and I'm impressed. I think you guys won't go out there looking like clowns, at least.

Adidas could go either way for us. They could go traditional, which i think we all want. Or they could go crazy like arizona state, ucla, and many more. This could be either very good or very very bad.

I think they'll keep it traditional but I'm sure we will see a crazy uni for a game or two every season, which I'm fine with. The kids love that chrome helmet or special uniform. If it fires them up then I'm all for it. They're the ones wearing it.

Can anyone answer whether this news means that we won't have plays like this where Justin Thomas is struggling to keep his pants up on a run? I don't know if that's a thing with Russell clothing not fitting properly.

Well it wouldn't be very appropriate for him to roam the sidelines in tidy whities.
Coach is cool enough he could make happens in boxers but not tidy w.

Often he comes out very early in the pregame to see the media for this interview. While he waits he walks around like a regular guy visiting with field security and regular folks on t he field. He then sits on the bench and looks around like a guy at the park.

You do realize we have to go along with them right? UA didn't do that to MD without MD agreeing.
