.@danorlovsky7, I’ve Never Had The Opportunity To Meet You Personally, But I Have Always Thought You Were One Of The Best Journalists On ESPN. The Piece On Your Son Madden That I Just Watched May Be The Most Emotional Thing I Have Ever Seen In My Life. Congratulations & Stay Strong My Man! You Are In A Great Place. Much Respect! 🙏🏻

The below post is why LeBron James took time out of his schedule to play golf and talk like a good-old-boy with a group of Florida rednecks. Nike is cooked. The company ran off the American base turning LeBron into Al Sharpton Lite. Memphis.

Nike wiped out $200B+ in market cap since November 2021. And the chart actually understates how bad it is. This company made one bet that destroyed everything: the direct-to-consumer pivot. During COVID, Nike's online sales surged, and management convinced themselves the stay-at-home economy was permanent. They pulled product from Foot Locker, Dick's, and thousands of wholesale partners to push buyers through Nike.com and Nike stores. That ceded physical shelf space to On Running, Hoka, New Balance, and every competitor happy to fill the void. By the time Nike brought Elliott Hill in as CEO, customers had already moved on. The China numbers are staggering. Seven straight quarters of declining revenue. Greater China sales dropped 17% last quarter. Next quarter Nike expects a 20% plunge. Meanwhile Lululemon is posting double-digit growth in the same market. Anta and Li-Ning are eating Nike's share from below. Nike's China revenue contribution fell from 18.6% in 2021 to 14.2% in 2025. Yesterday Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan, and Bank of America all downgraded the stock on the same day. Net income fell 35% year over year. Gross margin has declined for seven consecutive quarters. And the stock still trades at 38x forward earnings, a premium over the S&P 500 average of 22x. This is what a slow-motion brand collapse looks like with a luxury multiple attached to it. The turnaround keeps getting pushed further out. Management promised growth by early 2027. Wall Street priced that in. Now it's late 2027 at best. The scariest part: Nike is still the #1 sportswear company by market cap. If this is what #1 looks like, the rest of the industry is running a different race entirely.

@obvious_shirts So Ryan is correct, you’re still crying about a flag. L
English
What’s funny about the whole L flag situation is that Brewers fans have zero understanding of the flags’ purpose, history and significance.
During the Great Depression, a flag was flown to be that days scoreboard. It was the simplest and easiest way to signify “WON” or “LOST” to the surrounding population.
Brewers fans think the L flag means ‘the Cubs lost’ - it doesn’t. It signifies a Win or Loss to whomever is flying it.
It’s like conquering a territory and celebrating by waving that territories white flag. You're literally calling yourselves losers and think it’s a flex.
Had you flown the W flag, that would’ve felt like a punch in face, but you didn’t.

Didn’t have a round of trash talk filled golf with Sir Charles Barkley on my bingo card… but here we are.

@u92384772919 @mertcentury weird. Complete opposite for me, used to be super paranoid as a teen but now as an adult it’s whatever. I get it tho just razzin ya, next time hit the doobie
English
@ChimmerJones @mertcentury It is funny you say that though, because this type of paranoia is usually worse as an adult. I used to come home fried as a teen and did not give a fuck
English
Last year my dad found me vaping on the balcony and smoked a pre roll next to me. I tried to be as nice as possible about not wanting a hit, but there’s no world in which I’m smoking weed with my father
sam wakins@samwakinsvv
Have you smoked weed with your parents?
English
@u92384772919 @mertcentury No. I think it’s funny people still get paranoid around their parents as adults and I am poking fun at you.
English
@ChimmerJones @mertcentury No, I am almost 30. I understand that I would not actually be doing anything wrong, but being high around certain people can make you feel paranoid. Are you denying this is a thing that can happen?
English
@ChimmerJones @mertcentury No? My parents are pretty conservative and always have been. Even if they came around on weed and I had the opportunity to smoke with them, the low grade paranoia that comes with weed would make me feel like I’m doing something wrong
English
@mertcentury People are mad at you for this but I get it. Probably a similar feeling to being stoned in front of your boss lol
English
@mertcentury Cool flex? I woulda just toked up with pops and not be a weirdo like yourself. Your father probably was waiting for you to ask for a hit and finished the joint solo and disappointed

i mean, c’mon man
