Sorry, but that is a major insult to our WWII vetrans, especially those marines who raised the flag on Iwo Jima. This is in extremely poor taste and is not something I would have expected from a company like UA.

I get it. Establish a sport somewhere that doesn't have an activity. The idea is good, however the route they took is in extremely poor taste.

Sent Under Armor an email earlier noting my sentiments towards this rag. We'll see if they respond, and how they respond.

I think it's clever. They have a whole line of shirts imitating recognizable American symbols.

Nothing to get upset over.

Respect in this country went down the shitter. I'm sure you guys wouldn't mind wearing that in front of any WWII vet and not give a shit.

Here's the thing, I don't believe the person who made this shirt means to belittle the reference and is actually paying homage to it. If there is a person with a "real" problem against this shirt then they better take a step back and understand this country is founded on freedom of speech and expression. Any honest vet should enjoy living in this country and be proud they fought so that people could express themselves and be an individual not living under a dictator. That's just my .02 though.

They stopped the sale of this shirt already. That didn't take long. That said, it didn't bother me.

I see nothing wrong with this shirt what so ever. Because its not a flag being raised and its not soliders. This is a basketball hoop being lifted by some basketball players. UA didn't disrespect any Vets by doing this shirt. In fact I find it to be a good marketing promotion for basketball players. Some folks in here need to stop wearing their emotions on their sleeves and stop thinking that Vets are being disrespected. In short-start acting like men instead of a cry baby. Someone wrote that it was freedom of speech and I agree with that statement 100%. UA is not about disrespecting anyone here in America, which I love and will defend with my life

Yea, because veterans who fought in that war opinions don't matter.
Fuck that!
My dad's medals earned during that war aren't a joke if you ask me.
