Subject: Tiger re-signs w/ Nike Golf; pres produces understatement of the year


Re: Tiger re-upping with Nike Golf, Nike Golf president Bob Wood has
this pearl to throw before the swine:

"Nike is lucky to have the kind of partnership with Tiger that goes
beyond a simple endorsement. He has really helped Nike Golf grow over
the years through his involvement in product development, whether it is
clubs, balls, apparel or footwear. In the future, we see Tiger playing
a key role in continuing the strong momentum Nike Golf now has both
inside and outside the USA."

Tiger has "helped" Nike Golf's product development? And Kreskin sees
Tiger "playing a key role in..."yada yada yada?!?! Bob Wood further
expounded that in his opinion, sex is fun and occasionally produces
children, he is positive his income is taxed at a certain level, and
that one day most all of us will die.

Thanks Bob!

According to TGC, which no one can stand to watch anymore, it's
roughly $30M x 5 years = $150. But
it's not a flat rate, it includes a percentage of sales. In the next
contract after this one, he is supposed
to get a piece of the company.

Tiger "owns" the company right now. What do you think will happen to the
sales of golf equipment, and the rest of the company, if Tiger signs or
signed with another company? Nike owes their survival as a company to
Michael Jordan and Tiger Woods, without either of them they would only
be making an average basketball shoe.

NBA owns Nike. Tiger doesn't come close. To answer to the question is not as
much as you think. Nike does $1B per quarter in footwear in the US and less
than $100M in equipment. The 3Q 2006 Form 10-Q is at

Yeah, well sucking Tiger's tiny dick at the podium seemed a little over
the top.

I'm glad he just went with the silly speech.
