thedailycaller--2020-06-28--Under Armour Is Trying To Terminate Its $280 Million Deal With UCLA

Under Armour is trying to get out of its deal with UCLA .
According to Ben Bolch , the popular apparel company is looking to terminate its $ 280 million deal with the Golden Bruins .
( RELATED : David Hookstead Is The True King In The North When It Comes To College Football ) UCLA released a statement that they will attempt to fight Under Armour .
According to Bolch , UA might be able to get out of the deal without penalty because of the force majeure clause , which allows either side to opt out for “ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of war , riot , civil disturbance , sabotage , explosions , acts of God.
” The company seems to think that coronavirus is covered under that clause .
It ’ s going to be very interesting to see what happens from here .
Under Armour is one of the biggest apparel companies in America , but everyone is struggling right now .
Without sports rolling and the future of the college football season in major doubt , it ’ s understandable why UA might want to opt out of the deal .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ do the same to the Badgers because Wisconsin is also an Under Armour school , and I don ’ t want to lose a penny .
As for UCLA , it ’ s truly mind-boggling just how bad their athletic department has become these past few years .
The Bruins used to be a national basketball power .
Now , nobody takes their basketball team or football teams seriously .
Both squads are afterthoughts outside of the region .
Best of luck to UCLA .
It sounds like they ’ re going to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .

According to Ben Bolch, the popular apparel company is looking to terminate its $280 million deal with the Golden Bruins. (RELATED: David Hookstead Is The True King In The North When It Comes To College Football)
UCLA released a statement that they will attempt to fight Under Armour.
Under Armour has informed UCLA that it is attempting to terminate its record $280-million apparel deal with the school. In an email to UCLA constituents, athletic director Dan Guerrero wrote “We are exploring all of our options to resist Under Armour’s actions.” — Ben Bolch (@latbbolch) June 27, 2020
The termination of the Under Armour deal obviously would be a huge blow to a UCLA athletic department already facing a massive budget deficit. — Ben Bolch (@latbbolch) June 27, 2020
According to Bolch, UA might be able to get out of the deal without penalty because of the force majeure clause, which allows either side to opt out for “natural calamities, national emergencies, declarations of war, riot, civil disturbance, sabotage, explosions, acts of God.” The company seems to think that coronavirus is covered under that clause.
There is a force majeure clause in UCLA’s contract with Under Armour that, in theory, lets either party out of its obligations for events including “natural calamities, national emergencies, declarations of war, riot, civil disturbance, sabotage, explosions, acts of God.” — Ben Bolch (@latbbolch) June 27, 2020
It’s going to be very interesting to see what happens from here. Under Armour is one of the biggest apparel companies in America, but everyone is struggling right now.

“I think currently, yeah, I’ll go with myself,” Ryan said when talking about the best NFC South gunslinger. You can watch his full interview below.
This is the definition of a no-win situation. What else is Ryan supposed to say? Is he supposed to admit Tom Brady and Drew Brees are both better than him?
If he says that, then he’s going to get mocked relentlessly for not being confident in himself. He had to say that he’s the best.

That leads us to the situation we’re now in, which is Ryan getting mocked relentlessly for claiming to be better than Tom Brady and Drew Brees.
See what I mean? No matter how Ryan described the quarterback situation in the NFC South, he was going to come out a loser.

Hell, maybe Ryan will go out in 2020 and prove everyone wrong. I just find it hard to believe Tom Brady and Drew Brees won’t have great campaigns this season.
Ryan got put in a tough position, tried to give it his best answer but came out looking foolish anyway.
Let us know in the comments if you think he’s better than Brady and Brees.

Johnny Manziel’s time playing football is over, and he’s okay with that.
After two years with the Cleveland Browns, a season in the CFL and a short stint in the AAF before it collapsed, Johnny Football isn’t interested in trying to play football anymore. (RELATED: David Hookstead Is The True King In The North When It Comes To College Football)
“In the past, probably, is the way I’d characterize it. I’ve finally got to a point where I’m trying to achieve happiness in life, not happiness on the football field,” the former Texas A&M superstar said during an interview with the Lubbock Avalanche-Journal when talking about his football career.
“I can honestly say I’m happy and I’m doing the right things to try and put a smile on my face every day, and that means more to me than going out and grinding on a football field,” he added.

It became obvious the moment Manziel didn’t play in the XFL that his time playing pro football was over. He had a very short window to get back into the NFL. It didn’t happen and the ship on him returning to the league sailed a long time ago.
Luckily, it doesn’t sound like Manziel cares too much. He sounds like he’s in a very good place mentally, and that’s all you can ask for.
Given where his life was a few years ago as it was engulfed by chaos, it seems like he made out alright.
