1. We’ve gone back & forth on this topic in 2014. I was perfectly fine w/ the green lids. Why? B/c we rocked green lids in the 70’s. Did u know that? We rocked burnt leather helmets in the 30’s. Were u aware w/ that? So as long as it’s in OUR history, I have zero problems. Just like I had zero problems w/ the green & gold jerseys w/ the gold warning flag lids b/c we rocked them in the late 60’s.
I said back then, my complaint w/ the green & burnt lids was Nike should’ve went w/ a matted finish like the original helmets vs a gloss, but for me, if we rocked yellow helmets I would be good b/c it’s in OUR history. I’m all for whatever is in our archive. I love throw backs, even ones w/ a modern touch like the 75th addition of The Golden State Warriors jerseys this season.

Technically, yes...but how do you explain an actual true freshman in Williams, out-performing Perry? Easy. He's been coached properly for years, and didn't grow up playing sand lot football. Perry had fan boys for 2+ years and I think that might have filled his head more than the playbook.

(Smile, u’re on candid camera. Yeah u tend to change ur tune later, but u go hard in the paint in the moment.)
3. It amazes me how ur trying to hold Nike accountable for changing our lids in 2014, lid colors in our HISTORY, actually, disregarding our history w/ them; yet, u conveniently dismiss from UR memory & give Adidas a pass for giving us the white & Super Wide Silver U helmets or the Black & Super Wide Silver Veteran Appreciation day helmets.
-In just SEVEN yrs, we’ve had:
1. Feathers
2. Silver
3. Strawberry Patches
4. Aqua Green
5. Became “The V”
6. A Maze on the #’s
7. Light orange
8. Tangerine orange
9. Shimmer Green
10. Annnnnd ALL have been crooked!
Yet, u wanna talk about the year 2014??! LMAO, OK, Mr or Ms (since I’m not sure if u’re a male or female) “I prefer Nike/Jordan Brand” per ur 2014 argument. U have a funny way of showing that.
“But, but, but, but they keep fixing them, though!” Lol. Adidas is the Manny Diaz of outfitters, FOH. U don’t need to keep fixing chit if u do it right.
4. AGAIN, FOR THEE RECORD: I’m trashing the ENTIRE operation of Adidas, specifically players’ apparel & fan apparel. Something u can’t refute, which is y u’re not addressing that, talking in circles. Pay the fck attention. When ****’s, Fanatics, and other retailers are constantly marking down our newly released gear, it’s a sign that chit ain’t moving! Why? B/c they suck! Grown men don’t want to wear a tangerine orange, w/ a sticker Ibis on their shoes, unless they rocking baggy sweat pants to hide their diapers!
Finally:
5. Did or did not Adidas give our theme to FIU, a G5 school, when we played on the grounds of OUR old home?
6. Did or did not Adidas renege on our contractual agreement regarding compensation compared to other ACC Schools?
7. Did or did not Adidas almost burn our b-ball program w/ impermissible benefits behind our back, launching a FBI investigation into us?
This is all w/in 7 yrs??! Really? And we give Cristobal a jersey that fits a baby?? Lol. My guy try to stretch it, and his face said it all. Lol.
Anyways, u’re right about one thing; I didn’t find u defend Diaz, so there’s that. Lol. U r a Raiders fan, so I expect nothing less than a back & forth.
