I agree that #UnderArmour will be able to poach some players, although I'm not sure when. We saw this past year's draft that none of the top ten picks signed with Under Armour which is not ideal. You don't want to be stuck in the Kevin Durant dilemma from a few years ago waiting for a powerhouse like #Nike to match your offer. It's best to get these guys and get them in your brand early. They were fortunate enough that #StephCurry was completely overlooked/disrespected by Nike for him to fall in to their hands. Another problem facing Under Armour is that their basketball shoes just flat out don't look good (personal opinion, majority). Stephen Curry's latest release was a laughing stock among sneaker heads. Under Armour is fortunate in baseball with the likes of Bryce Harper helping them out and they may do a better job thriving in baseball than basketball until they draw those bigger names and improve shoe design. $UA$NKE
@[Alexa Graham](user:23898) You're right. Sorry for the confusion. I was speaking about the level of more relative and newer TV shows or movies that Netflix offers and Prime doesn't. But Prime members getting the streaming for free is a steal, especially as it's shows rise in popularity (Transparent).
Very good point, David. I forgot about the ecoli incident. It does seem like a strange move in order to be successful especially considering all their competition. Luckily, they have the brand and the name to at least try and compete, but will they be falter against these big name companies? I know the first thing I think of when I hear "Chipotle" is Mexican food, not a burger. $CMG
Interesting to see how much of an impact $AMZN is having all over the world. As it keeps expanding, the price will continue to keep rising. Just as you thought, #Amazon was at it's biggest, it keeps building. I'm interested to see if Amazon will ever be on the same level as Netflix. Never say never with that kind of stuff, especially with Amazon's deep pockets.

Under Armour To Dominate The California Market
obviously they are thriving with likes of Tottenham and in football, but my points are made strictly from a basketball viewpoint.
