It's Michael Jordan's brand. All the Air Jordans have them. I didn't know they made clothing too but a quick google search shows that there are teams with their apparel. Not too impressed with their designs though.

This has nothing to do with the Jordan brand, but "Jumpman" was actually the original name of Nintendo's Mario character. Before Mario Bros. was released, he was in Donkey Kong where his name was Jumpman. He got his name and Italian plumber persona for Mario Bros, and it stuck, obviously.

So: Jumpman: not a superhero for third-graders but actually yeah kinda?

A manager at the Howell Nike Factory Outlet is privy to the details of Michigan Nike contract negotiations?? Likely.

My thoughts exactly. Howell is practically in he middle of nowhere, and we're talking about an outlet mall. Not a Nike factory or something. I digress.....

I totally believe it is true obviously...

But really? This guys spoke to a manager at a Nike outlet.... In Howell? All things considered, I have to highly doubt that someone of that stature would have any insight on that.

I'm still confused wd didn't wear nike the past eight or so years because Michigan didn't wear them? I think Jay Z said it best when he said "what I eat don't make you ?@&!

Is it bad that i've just soiled myself?  I mean with something like this it's ok to have temporary incontinence isn't it?

I'm not the only one am I?  Tell me that I'm not the only one here who just had an accident.

How long before we get some idea how much the University is getting paid? Are we going to be the highest Nike school?

Alabama, Southern Cal, and Penn State are all Nike. People keep acting like Adidas forced us to go all UNIFORMZ when, in actuality, the AD signed off on all of that. We don't have to approve those things just because [insert shoe company] tells you they want you to.

Does this mean we can finally stop talking about it? Seeing Michigan with Air Jordan's will be cool and all, but I mostly just want this conversation to go away.
