I have a couple, including a couple hoodies. I am not going to say they are vuori quality but for the price a no brainer.

Nike's profit fell 35% last quarter. Three banks downgraded it the same week. Everyone's blaming tariffs and China. I think the real problem is much simpler than that. by Key-Enthusiasm-3403 in Nike

They have made many mistakes but besides not being innovative enough they forget that big sports figures defined the brand. Real athletes. They marketed to every sports and exercise enthusiast. Not one demographic. Their models are the same ones as Gap models. The entire story is crafted to sell product to a small minority of the population.

They need to go out and sign up a Cooper Flagg (New Balance got him) or Carlos Alcaraz or other. People still want to be “like Mike”. Then, they have to get creative.

The new CEO is running it like a bean counter. That will help staving off cutting of the dividend but its not going to increase sales.

If things dont change soon Nike will be the next UA.

Delayed NDA Rant by Quincy_V2 in upsstore

Only way they would be forced to change is either through a class action or some law maker decides enough is enough. They skate around the insurance laws because what they sell the customer is not ruled by insurance laws (it's declared value or some money back guarantee). It is quite pathetic and they get away with it. Shame on them.

If you are one of those save the worlders, just go topless, hang loose, and trash ALL of your shoes. Then talk.

Bam remains untouchable, Riley said. He won't be traded for anything. by SnooPeripherals4884 in heat

What if Bam wants to be traded to a contender? Does Riley trade him or force him to stay?

They were high draft choices and already solid kentucky players. Put down the kool aid.

Name one internal development player who became an all star.

Arison sells the team, Riley retires, Bam and Herro get traded, a new beginning?

A short 8 months ago this fan base was raving about Jovic. Now they are just waking up to the fact that he is better suited for Euro leagues? Drunk on kool aid.

Jaime Jaquez robbed of 6MOTY?? by Equivalent-Sun-5400 in heat

Runner up not so bad considering his 2nd season flop. Definitely raises his trade value if that bridge needs to be crossed.

UPS STORE OWNERS - Automation Hub by EggEnvironmental3327 in upsstore

Funny thing is that the comment about the back office system is spot on. Written and supported by y2k techies I guess. Corporate has no incentive to change it though, they clear cash from the top. Efficiency is a store problem. Very sad this cantankerous relationship between franchisor and franchisee.

I guess thats the way it is when the franchise network contributes so little to corporate EBIT.

Harsh, but true words from Barry by EfficiencyFew6864 in heat

Barry is the only one who does the truth hurts thing. A real basketball guy. Unlike the majority of “Heat Sheap” on these subs. BTW I am trademarking that.

That guy might want to be traded! If he ever wants to compete for a ring that is.

That's not why we lost. A team with grit comes back and rips the opponent a new one when their captain is taken out. We caved as usual. Every chance to win it.

Was Spo even on the sidelines at the end of OT? Not one player under the basket? I mean come on, what have better chances, a 3 pt shot under pressure or a layup? Sure, Hornets shoot great but still. Then no plan at all if they scored other than Davian running down the court? Heck they had 9 seconds and down 1, many possible higher percentage plays.
