I hear you. I am pretty certain this was planned though. There would be more expensive placements if they were serious about it. Come up with a controversial ad, place it in a cheap place and generate more publicity for free..

For some reason I've become engrossed with this today. They are struggling and took a hit when they aligned themselves with crossfit which is a pretty controversial workout regimen. I'm not really sure stirring up negative publicity was a plan. People who were complaining to Reebok via email all last week over the ad were sent out responses from the company that they didn't approve or create the ad then basically did a 180 today and admitted they made a mistake. Pretty much they admitted to lying. I'll see if I can find a copy of those emails that were sent out. I did see one on Facebook.

I didn't see all that. Just based that opinion off the link. Claiming they didn't approve it is just about the most idiotic response possible.

This coming off of their lawsuit settlement for false advertising and settling for 25 million.

Adidas should just pull the plug and cut their losses.

Reebok has the NFL though. That is a gigantic piece of business.

They could just start putting their Adidias logos on the swag.

Not any more. Come April it's all NIKE. That's why every team has jerseys 50% off right now.

Yup. I've been getting emails from the Eagles weekly about everything being sale. No jokes please.
Get ready for every NFL team to look like Oregon

Once I started cheating on my workouts, I realized it wasn't right, so we got divorced!

No wonder why this brand is epically struggling. Who's the Einstein that came up with this?

I think it has a different meaning. It's a giant picture of the guy's right hand, not of another woman.
