Big. Very, very big indeed.

I like the "Wendy's buying Burger King" analogy.

It will be interesting to see how this plays out, and how a combined Adidas/Reebok goes up again Nike.

Said Hainer: "We want to grow both brands together faster than the individual brands and, of course, grow faster than our competitors and then we will finally close the last piece of the gap."


you know, i'm really sick of the corporate folks and their constant incorrect use of the word grow.

I wonder what the folks at Nike have to say about this.

"Adidas and Reebok logos weren't on Tiger's ball, were they?"
