NBA supports BLM

  2020 was a historic year for many reasons, but one in particular that stood out to me was the impressive uproar in the fight against discrimination and hatred of Black lives in our country. This fight for change showed many supporters include such big organizations like the NBA. After a beautiful idea of allowing athletes in soccer games to add special BLM messages to their uniforms, the chairmen of the NBA thought it would be best to implement this idea into his organization as well. He allowed for players to pick a message they supported and then present that message on their jerseys during the games they played. Not only did this show how much support for the cause the NBA and the players themselves had, but also helped spread the message to the fans as well. The jerseys are even up for sale on the NBA's official website, where the profits from the sales will directly be contributed to help support the BLM cause as well. The NBA is known for switching up the style of their uni...

Covid hits Everywhere

  Corona Virus has effected our entire world from across the globe and made many effects on our everyday lives. This doesn't exclude sports, or fashion either. People have had to adapt to wear masks and other gear to ensure the safety of themselves and others around them. Almost every sporting event has either been canceled or modified in some way to keep the players, fans, and other participants safe from the spread. But through all the sorrow, we still find some way to bring in the humor to keep every happy and not depressed during these times. This photo was taken by a bystander in Florida this past SuperBowl weekend, and the gentleman is wearing a custom NFL jersey with the number 19, and the name "COVID." This is a truly ingenious way of expressing a true funny twist on the sport, the situation, and the ability to make cool customer jerseys. A great idea, and even better execution. This post went viral and put a lot of smiles and laughs into people's days.  The p...

Corporate Goes Comfy

Sports and fashion have influenced each other which creates trends. You can see this in everyday fashion as it is not just professional sports, it’s also the personal fitness that you find in the gym. This is a huge hit in the industry as people on Tik Tok influence the fashion trends as well.   I see people wearing Lululemon leggings to work as they are yoga pants. You can see they have sponsored athlete Nick Foles who is a professional quarterback and made him a lead ambassador to encourage sales. Please see the link to the video shown on “You Tube”.   https://youtu.be/qNGNCtQF7eg   He believes in yoga and is going into detail about how yoga has changed his life and helps him through his moments. You see him wearing the Lululemon shorts and shirt while stretching. It sure makes me want to buy some Lululemon and get out there and stretch! I love the fact that it's ok to be comfortable at work wearing leggings and being fashionable at the same time. There is a compan...

Game of Basketball

  Anytime someone mentions the game of Basketball, they all have one key player and influencer in their minds, Michael Jordan. MJ not only made a huge impact on the court and for all the teams he played with, but also off the court with his icon sneakerline in collaboration with Nike. Michael partnered with Nike back in 1984 after he helped the USA team take home the gold medal in basketball. The first shoe was an instant success, bringing Nike $130 million in sales just in the first year alone! Since then MJ and Nike have teamed up countless times for many different iterations of "Air Jordan" shoes, and different styles, colors, and patterns for each shoe as well. His shoes have done so well throughout the last few decades that Nike has even rereleased some versions for resell since many never got the chance to buy them in the first coming years as they were released. It's crazy that in this day and age, even kids who were never old enough to even see MJ play basketball ...
