Under Armour is winning right now
 

The Golden State Warriors won their first championship in 40 years capping off a magical season in which point guard Stephen Curry won league MVP. You could also make the case that he should have won finals MVP. 

 
Jordan Spieth won his second major of the 2015 season becoming only the fourth player since 1958 to win the first two majors to start the season. Spieth is currently the 2nd ranked player in the world behind only Rory McIlroy.

And I live in Baltimore, HQ of Under Armour...coincidence?

Side note...why does Under Armour spell armor like a Brit? The guy is from Baltimore.

Never mind. Google is your friend:

"Oh, and the reason we added the 'U' in 'Armour' is that I was skeptical at the time about whether this whole internet thing would stick," Plank told The Post. "So I thought the phone number 888-4ARMOUR was much more compelling than 888-44ARMOR. I wish there was a little more science or an entire marketing study behind it, but it was that simple."

Also, Auburn is an Under Armour school.

Auburn was the first major college to sign a deal with Under Armour.  (Actually, Maryland was, but Maryland doesn't count IMO because the owner and CEO of Under Armour is a Maryland alum.  Saying Maryland signed with Under Armour is kinda like saying Oregon signed with Nike.  DUH.)

Connection to Auburn:  Cam and CAP.

      "Floor, not Ceiling" - between the hashmarks

      By strato · Posted

      I don’t know about floor in a team defense sense but we needed more.  The floor that I am familiar with is our QBs floor and it is so low that every other part of the team needs to be beefed up.     We tried our best to improve these things and I think we did improve the defense and we at least kept the offense  from sinking from no LT.  And ostensibly helped the receivers too.   So we kept a window open that we at least have a chance to improve our record by a game of two.  Which would probably give us the division.

      Yeah. I am one of. those who think a JAG RB can eat with really good blocking. (Brooks is most important in my mind, in tbe passing game and that is what we’ll lose without him)  There are a lot of aspects to this. The big one that caused us to struggle is Young and his arm scared no one.  Best back, best blocking still cannot defeat a really good defense if they are not forced to respect the pass.  And teams did not.    But, a strong OL and running game Can get us over against weaker defenses.  And if Bryce still doesn’t scare anyone we can still win some games. Like last year  So it is really important to tend to that OL.   Get that straight and see if in his fourth year he can finally back defenses off. That is what if is all about this year to me, on the Bryce front.
