I must say, that stuff looks cool, but the whole date of him getting diagnosed with cancer doesn't really appeal to me. The jerseys are bad a$$. I might have to get over it and get one.

I'll pass on the clothes, but I respect the man and his accomplishments and frequently wear the yellow bracelet. The clothes will be hip and cool for a certain set, but it smacks of "hero worship" and big business opportunistic marketing. (I know, I'll go chill for a while and be OK in the morning).

Do any of the proceeds go to the LAF? If so I could see it but otherwise I've no real desire to encourage Nike's profit to employee salary ratio. (I'll stop here and not respond to other posts as the thread should stay on the topic of apparel, not Nike in general.

Same donation if you buy a jersey for a yellow bracelet? Weak.

I'm not going to buy them because I'm cheap, but I'm sad to hear people sniff at "hero worship."

Hero worship is a good thing.
