Almost a huge weekend for Nike

[GC70]

Wie and Pettersen T-3

Ross Fisher lost in a playoff with the new 2.0 in play

Mcllroy T-2 with a 67 and the new 2.0

 

Could be a huge year for Nike.

Almost does not count !!!!

Looks like it WILL be another huge weekend for Titleist though...not much news there.

It should be they have the biggest stable in golf.

You'd think they would win more.

[BigPete]

Let's face it, every weekend, every OEM almost wins...

Could you imagine how much winning they'd do if they were Titleist golf "athletes"?

Boggles the mind...

[MrTmag]

Like the great Ricky Bobby said if your not first your last

[DRRicks]

Can you imagine how "little" winning Nike would do if it weren't for Woods?

When players are applauded for "almost" in forums, previous over-hype is the first place to look. I wonder if anyone at NIKE considers that when they come out screaming with their mega deals.

I know for certain NIKE is not celebrating "almost". Their money is "W" level and that is all they consider success. They are in search for the next Tiger | Jordan. Always. Transcendental Athlete Image is purely their intent.

An hour old and already with the hatin'...

Your right MN it was a decent weekend... Considering they had to rely on Tiger all year last year, to get great performances out of Wie and Rory was a good thing, especially using the new Driver.

Spot on man!

Don't be naïve! If the thread would have been, "McIlroy and Wie win first time out with Nike's new drive"...I don't think anyone would've been negative. When was the last time you saw a "Srixon Almost Had a Killer Weekend" thread?

[imakaveli]

Almost?!?

Not really apples to apples comparing Srixon to Nike when it comes to stable performance.

Did you have anything positive to add or just more negativity?

I almost made an eagle 2 but the ball didn't go in.

And one time, I almost got Uma Thurman's phone #.

Uma, Hogans! Uma!

You should rethink your position.

I don't own a single thing that says Nike on it with the exception of a Hoodie someone bought for me.

I prefer UA in clothing and I don't use Nike balls or Golf Clubs.

Whipping out the "hater" tag anytime we are in disagreement is cliche. So played and dead.

Every reply was level headed and some even offering a little bit of analysis.

- The need to mention MW making a T3 demonstrates that her career is not-even-fraction of the down payment NIKE made. [b]Who else on the LPGA is [i]ever[/i] applauded for their T3 weekends? [/b]What a string of unprecedented exceptions we keep carving for the millionairess.

- Rory is sadly headed in the same direction of falling way short of the trumpets.

The OP has subsequently admitted the thread was a bait. If anything we all fell right into the well. But seriously, posting your assumption that we must "hate", of the old favorite that might have been clever when my Grandmothers were alive: "haters gonna hate" ... becoming diluted to the point of worthless.

Absolutely spot on.

"Hater" can't exit the English vernacular quickly enough. So played out..l

You guys have fun.... The lengths people will go to have an arguement is astonishing.
