    And even the players should refuse. What's in it for them?

    Other than free gear, nothing.

    Just another reason to hate Nike and all the other companies taking advantage of it.

    That would be cool. And Nike set it up.

    And if he wants to say no, he can. And when the contract is up with FSU, Nike can take that refusal into account. Nothing wrong with the e-mail. The FSU employee who leaked it should be in trouble with the boss.

    It wasn't a leak. It was part of a FOIA request by the Wall Street Journal.

    And I'm sure another company would be more than happy to replace Nike.

    Roger Goodell has suspended the FSU program for six games.

    I like how the kid was only seen in Nike gear after that e-mail was sent. Shows (again) what a spineless lackey Fisher is.
     
  8. Spineless lackey or a guy who doesn't want to lose any money?

    I'm surprised you can even buy FSU gear that isn't from Nike.

    How's the kid gonna feel now that he's been used as a corporate pawn?

    Now, now, remember. These are just amateur athletics. It's all for fun.
