What do you think? Would GB leave Elevance to lead the WNBA?

Historically, Nike had impeccable timing of using relevant SuperStar of the moment and help them lead to next level.
I will go back as far as John McEnroe, Jordan, Barkley, Carl Lewis, Mary Slaney, Joan Benoit Samuelson, Mark Allen, Bo, Lebron, Kobe, Durant, Serena ...
And disgraced ones like Lance, Tiger, Marion etc.
I apologize if I missed someone

But today, when I look around there is no one that have charisma and appeal of athletes above.

Basketball: Jordan is retired for long time and not getting young. A baby born when he made that shot against Utah would be 28 today.
Lebron: played 22 years and about to retire
Durant: same story as Lebron. About to retire.
Kobe; retired and passed away.
Who is new blood in basketball space for Nike.

Baseball: Last time Nike had any significant endorsee was Griffey and Barry Bonds and that was long time ago. They invested on Trout but the guy was hurt for 3 or 4 season and this was first that he played full in a long time

Football: Nike controls football but they never had anyone that lead the category. Last one was Deshawn Jackson. I think

Track: They have some winners but no SuperStar material. Sidney Mcglaughlin Levrone is good candidate but she is NB girl. Nobody significant in sprinter category for boys and girls.

Tennis: Basically nobody since Serena retired

Golf: They have endorsees but nobody in the category of Tiger

Soccer: Originial Ronaldo has been retired for long time.
And Cristiano Ronaldo is about to retire, playing in senior league of soccer in Saudia Arabia.

As you can see there is no one significant icon leading Nike now. That is the problem.

Their Icon now Kim Kardashian. Wow. A girls made herself big through surgery.

I hope I made some sense in issue with Nike

In the spirit of cost cutting, why are we still funding extravagant sports and concert boxes for our leaders? A whole crew of junior female managers and their daughters at Toyota Center for today’s concert. I guess us plebes pay while others get the spoils from our fallen colleagues.

America’s Team will win!

Penny - why pay a speaking fee of $200,000 each to hear their motivational speeches? You should have hired them to give us pep talks about “Dribbling up the middle on our resumes” and the “Uneven bars of life”.
