    What stand did he take? He called Trump an ass (kinda), who hasn't. Trust he cashing that UA check tomorrow.
    Ignorance.

    Under Amour needs Curry. He doesn't need them.

    FOH

    UA was a multi billion dollar a year company before they signed Curry.
    So what?

    Idgaf about their earnings. My irrefutable point was Curry dont need them.

    There's Nike Adidas Reebok... even Fila

    He should go to nike

    I don't know if you're serious but as soon as the CEO made the statement, there was a flood of comments on social media of people saying they were no longer going to patronize Under Armour.

    Then Steph Curry was asked about the CEO's comments.

    So this whole ? started from what the CEO said. How you blaming Curry ? SMH

    His shoes being ugly is their fault not his. If that's why they aren't selling that is on them

    Cutting ties with the biggest star in their stable would be colossally stupid

    My bad on that.

    But his shoes cost the company $600 mil ? I doubt the dude designed the shoes. And it's not like they got some other sneakers that's hittin but the Curry's flopped. That's on them. You think they're just going to get another athlete and suddenly start getting on some Jordans ? ?

    They still need him for basketball shoe sales. Nobody is saying that UA will crumble if Curry left.

    CEO clarifies Under Armour's values in letter

    The CEO of Baltimore-based sports apparel company Under Armour responded Wednesday to criticism he received after calling President Donald Trump "an asset to the country."

    Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry was among celebrities the company sponsors who voiced concerns about Kevin Plank's praise of Trump, jokingly telling The Mercury News on Feb. 8 that he agreed -- if you remove "the ET from asset."

    In an open letter to Baltimore published as a full-page advertisement in The Baltimore Sun, Plank wrote that he wanted to clarify what values he and his company stand for.



    "In a business television interview last week, I answered a question with a choice of words that did not accurately reflect my intent," he wrote, referring to an interview on CNBC on Feb. 7.

    The company stands for equal rights and job creation and believes "immigration is a source of strength, diversity and innovation for global companies based in America," Plank wrote. Also, the company opposes the president's travel ban.

    "With an anticipated new executive order on immigration set to come out, we will join a coalition of companies in opposition to any new actions that negatively impact our team, their families or our community," he said.

    Curry is one of Under Armour's highest-profile spokesmen, with a deal that pays him at least $15 million annually -- and gives him a stake in the shoe and apparel company through 2024.

    Curry's business last year for Under Armour was worth $200 million, sources told ESPN's Darren Rovell, but some estimates of his value to the company are much higher.

    He told The Mercury News that Under Armour's working with Trump doesn't affect his deal with the company and that he is more concerned about it adopting Trump's values.

    Plank also released a statement on Feb. 8 clarifying his comments, and Curry said based on conversations he had with Plank last week he would continue to stand behind the company.
