Pic of the Week

By: Melissa | March 6th, 2009

Kobe Bryant welcomes Marta to LA and apparently Amway does too. So does this mean pyramid schemes will slowly make their way into WPS sponsorship? They’ve already taken over The LA Galaxy, The San Jose Earthquakes, and Real Salt Lake. Well, here’s hoping the FC Cougars get sponsored by Blue Coat Systems.

(p.s. Sorry I’ve been away dealing with LIFE right now. Shall return soon with a pre-season roundup.)

    pyramid schemes = illegal throughout the world

    Amway = 50 yr old award winning company operating in 80+ countries, partnered with major sports teams and top universities, has Presidents speak at it’s functions, #1 nutritional brand in the world etc etc etc

    Doesn’t that give you even the slightest cognitive dissonance? And shouldn’t it give you even the slightest pause to think maybe your wrong before publicly accusing such a company of being illegal?

    just my 2cents

    crime syndicates = illegal throughout the world
    The Mafia = 100+ yr old civic-award winning organization operating in 80+ countries, partnered with major sports teams, top universities and governments, has Presidents and celebrities speak at its functions, #1 crime brand in the world etc etc etc
    Doesn’t that give you even the slightest cognitive dissonance to present such dubious rationale as a defense?
    Just saying.

    Well David you have a point, but those mobsters that committ crimes are not and do not do it publicly. Our company has commercials, sponsor Kobe Bryant. We own the Orlando Magics Basketball Studium. This is not an illegal company. If you did research and actually knew what you were talking about then you would understand.

    Its a 50 yr old company, that has commericials daily. We were on the back of the TIME Magazine in last weeks edition, and sponsored the NCAA Final 4. Now tell me we have over 1500 different partner stores such as IBM, bass pro shops, barnes and nobles, E toys, pac sun, office depot, ace Hardware, panisonic, sonys, addidas, new balance, nautica, calkin kline, Ok now with these big time partner stores, do you think they have big time lawyers. The answer is yes, they do. Now do you think their big time lawyers would let them affiliate with a company that was not legitimate, I dont think so.

    Now go do your research little kid.
