You should try living in Tuscaloosa. It is bad enough that I cant wear my Michigan gear without someone saying under their breath, "Damn Yankee" but my wife is actually one of those insufferable Auburn fans.

It's the way things work, Blue. If it makes you feel any better, my wife is a die hard Notre Dame fan.

Did you read the details of the Adidas contract?
Did you know it is the best college athletics sponsorships in the country, with a clause in there saying that no other Adidas contracts can be better?
Did you know that we make $7.5 million per year which is $3.5 million more than Nike, with a $6.5 million signing bonus that no other program had ever received (Nike programs included) at the time? $66.5 million over 8 years?
Did you know John Falk spoke with his colleagues at every Adidas school and received no negative responses?
Did you know Adidas put two full time representatives in Ann Arbor to deal with mens and womens sports and that any other school only gets one?
I'm betting the answers are no, but thanks for playing.

Wrong.
I just care to do my research before shooting from the hip.

I don't care for the Adidas jerseys as much as the next guy, but I can live with them if it comes with this ridiculously awesome contract.

We get it, you aren't a fan of the Adidas jerseys. If you want to debate another board member, you need to present evidence that supports your position instead of just attacking their credibility for reasons that may or may not be true.

But I also know that adidas is shit.
