Is there anyone who doesn't hope Lonzo Ball is a total bust?

[NewbieJr 541]

 

It is decent influencer marketing, there are a lot of other players I would have probably gone with but Crawford was probably relatively cheap. They likely had him post with a $200 up-charge so when they go to the website and see the actual price it isn't as overwhelming. I'll have to get back with you though for more details, I'm actually on the way to Orlando International to fly to Europe for my vacation, gonna get some serious poon. Remember those days? Cya a$$holes in a week.

Have fun you little bastard

Be careful.

Ball doesn't like to answer questions about sales. When he finally does, his answer is "four five hundred pair".

 

I believe he's trying to say four to five hundred pair, but saying it in such a way that people might think he said forty-five hundred pair.

"Oh so you aren't marketing to women?" fock man her voice is annoying and you can just hear her trying to make a headline.

Hoop shoe sales continue to decline overall, making it less likely these shoes will ever make much money.

The basketball sneaker business has been bad for nearly two years now, but it may be reaching a nadir: basketball sneaker sales are down 26% since the start of 2017.

 

Thats bad for the whole sports footwear industry, so its not only hurting Under Armour, but it is especially bad for Under Armour, which overemphasized basketball footwear on the back of Steph Curry, its biggest star endorser.

Never understood why they tied their ship to Curry. Are great sneakers really a big reason he's good? He's not Jordan or Kobe.

 

Curry could stand behind the arch and launch threes wearing penny loafers.

[porkbutt 897]

do you hope he's a bust if sixers take him at 3?

[drobeski 3,061]

the Sixers like everything else in philthy have the ability to turn everyone into a bust. I blame their miserable loser fans.

That would suck. It would be like when the Eagles signed Vick. I hate rooting for a guy I don't like.

Such a stupid assessment of Curry's game. Is there any topic you are actually knowledgeable about?

 

Moving on, the Curry 2's were a huge hit with kid's and smashed all predicted sales. The Curry 3's were terrible looking shoes and kids moved on to something else.

 

HTH..

[Drizzay 758]

Young kids love Curry, so it was a fantastic move for UA.

 

Couple that with Brady, Harper and Speith as the other top endorsers, they made the right move.

[Cruzer 1,996]

Sounds like LaVar cost his kid upwards of $20m? https://www.yahoo.com/sports/news/report-lavar-ball-turned-10-million-shoe-contracts-son-lonzo-183900817.html

 

 

Well, he's prolly already made that much with his own shoe - anybody with an update sales count?

[MDC 8,092]

Would they do that? Sixer fans seem to hate Ball but if he's on the board he is clear BPA at a position of dire need.

if that happened, I would just be forced to root for the kid and hope the father had a heart attack.

I hear nothing about Lonzo so he doesn't seem like an ass. He's a great athlete with a lot of talent. His ugly ass shot scares me a little.

 

I don't get Lavar's endgame at all. Sixer fans don't want to draft his son because Lavar is an ass hole. Why do that to your kid?

[KSB2424 3,174]

How great would it be if Lakers pass and he slips out of the lottery.

Thought the same until he refused to work out for the Celtics, douche move. No Thanks.

i dunno. doubt they will. i bet they go jackson. but don't think they shouldn't because of the fans/dude's dad.

If Ball is there at 3 it's probably because someone else took Jackson 1-2. At that point you kind of have to take Ball over Fox or Monk ... right?

[KSB2424 3,174]

I'd take Fox number one

[MDC 8,092]

I'd take Fox number one

He's not a good enough shooter to justify taking that high. I'm not even sure I like Fox better than Monk or Dennis Smith.

Does this get any of you on his side? I laughed

[titans&bucs&bearsohmy! 2,745]

because he is an utterly self absorbed narcissist. He views his children as mere extensions of himself.

 

My dad is like that. He views "his son" as an institution, rather than a person, and ergo controls everything.

Good stuff. Glad to see he doesn't take his dad too seriously.

Can we get a sales update?

The googler doesn't show any updates beyond May 12-13.

I think they got rid of one more pair about two weeks ago on a playground in exchange for a 64 count box of crayons (with sharpener).

[DankNuggs 305]

Can we get a sales update?

still around 500... but they are counting on the NBA draft when he goes to the 76ers as their last big shot.

NBA summer league debut, Ball 2-15 from the floor. Lavar, anything to say? Rofl

get your spreadsheet ready, loser. Here goes...girlfriend made dinner for me earlier. And some homemade sangria. Then we focked for about 90 minutes. Then I came home because she is getting her Masters degree and has a paper due Tuesday. Tomorrow night, we are going to the Sands Casino. Going to do a bit of gambling, grab dinner and then hear an awesome cover band that is playing there at 10:00. You will be quizzed about this, so keep your spreadsheet up to date. Did you hit 100 post again today?

Amish Outlaws

I was thinking tribute band. I saw the Bob Seger one a while ago. Really good.

I assume "90 minutes" began when you first touched her, and ended about five minutes after you finished?

 

If not, kudos. I don't think I would want to Fock that long. Thirty to 45, including extensive fore play, is enough for me.
