Rypien1191 Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 If Adidas were smart, they'd do what Nike did with MJ back in 1984 and let RG3 keep on wearing lots of Adidas and pay every single dime of the fines. http://www.csnwashington.com/football-washington-redskins/talk/rg3-fined-10000-nfl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRAVEONTHEWARPATH93 Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 Actually, that's a good idea... Using Nike's own tactics against them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2v2nv Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 I didn't know that John Mara owned Nike. No wonder they got a contract for the uniforms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As much as I think the league is being ridiculous, I'd rather if RG3 focused on being awesome rather than sticking it to the league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bch89 Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 Isn't RG3 sponsored by ADIDAS while only the NFL is sponsored by Nike... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Nostril Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 Excuse my ignorance, but why isn't RG3 allowed to wear Adidas? I assume it's some sort of sponsorship issue, but is he not allowed to wear any brand names, only certain brand names, or are certain brand names banned? Is this in player contracts?

BigMike21 Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 Am I the only one who thinks RGIII needs to wise up about this crap? When doing interviews and gameday on field stuff he has to wear Nike. That's it. No compromise. No wiggle room. Nike paid a hell of a lot of money for the NFL rights. You see any other players getting fined for wearing their endorsements instead of the actual league sanctioned clothing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

burgundyrush Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 I will like to see Adidas come out with a signature RG3 shoe like what Nike did for Deion and Vick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigMike21 Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 This is per Wikipedia so take it with a grain of salt but the NFL adidas guys are: Reggie Bush Lawrence Timmons Titus Young Davone Bess Mario Williams Frank Gore Eric Berry Prince Amukamara DeMarco Murray Stephen McGee C. J. Spiller John David Booty Von Miller Kyle Rudolph Jerrel Jernigan Robert Griffin III Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlvinWaltonIsMyBoy Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 Not trying to brag, but I had dinner at RG3's house last night. He had hundred dollar bills laid out as napkins for everyone. Pretty sure he gives a crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
