I'd disagree, but I've never cared for the Swoosh or Nike in fact. I own only two articles of clothing Nike has made. One, a Miami shirt and the other is a long sleeve 1/4 zip thing that was a Christmas gift.
I absolutely hate, like on the previous page with the roster, the Air Jordan logo being on anything football related. I've also never been a Jordan fan irregardless of how **** good he was. Still, football is football, not basketball and I'd hate it of Adidas did some **** with the Messi logo. It's insulting to me with so many football greats that a basketball image and ball is on anything football related. It's just weird as **** to me.
Sorry @Rellyrell, just speaking the truth. You're crazy into it and that's cool by me. I do respect the Nike devotion.
I've had this question on my mind for a minute for @Rellyrell
If you had to give up one or the other, which would it be?
1. You can never wear another Nike anything.
Or
2. You can never watch or follow the Canes in anything ever again.
Which one are you picking?

I think some of ya’ll confuse why I function w/ Nike over Adidas as if I have a cult following of it. I know a lot of chit about it b/c I’ve been connected to several ppl who work there for over 20+ yrs.
There’s very specific reasons y I would want The U to be branded by Nike vs. Adidas that have chit to do w/ me & everything to do w/ brand imaging that helps elevate the program’s status + help with recruiting. I’ve listed articles, provided stats, @TheOriginalCane provided back end losses he’s heard first hand to this board, etc. all to validate my reasons y. If some on the board can’t see that or haven’t been following the plethora of Easter Eggs I’ve been dropping like I’m the mutha fckin Cadbury Bunny, then in the words of Jay Z, what more can I say.
My personal preference of Nike over Adidas is for an off-topic discussion. There’s very detailed & specific reasons both historically & personally why I would never f w/ Adidas (I’ve already shared two on this board). Just b/c I have a ton of Nikes/JBs doesn’t mean I don’t have far greater clothing & branding items from other companies. Truth be told, most likely u’ll catch me in some Chucks, Red Bottoms, & dress shoes 6/10 than my J’s or Nikes b/c I’m a hood ninja that’s both educated & business minded.
I’ve been loyal w/ Miami since 1987, my guy. I haven’t agreed w/ moves they’ve made, including the switch to Adidas b/c I knew the ramifications (and those all have come to fruition, btw). Miami can sign a life time deal w/ Adidas, & I’ll still f w/ them. Would I agree? **** no, but I also didn’t agree w/ them hiring Shannon, Golden, Diaz, Blake James, not having a contingency plan when whispers of The OB was going to be destroyed, etc. Yet, I here I is still rumbling & f’ing w/ all ya’ll numbnuts on this board loyally.
