Nike Re-Signs Michael Vick To An Endorsement Deal

Darren Rovell broke the news that Nike has officially re-signed Philadelphia Eagle Quarterback Michael Vick to an endorsement deal. The Swoosh dropped Vick after the whole dog / jail incident but is now the first ever company to resign an athlete after they’ve been dropped in the past. Vick has had a remarkable comeback so I’m excited to see what the designers come up with for Vick to rock this season (if there is one).

Nike Football Wants To Know If Clint Dempsey Is Superfly?

What’s being Superfly? United States and English Premier League club Fulham soccer player Clint Dempsey says “It’s about going out and playing your own game.” Be true to yourself.  Texas hip hop folks will recognize that song as Trae The Truth’s Texas from his 48 Hours mixtape.

Steve Nash’s 2010 Showdown In Chinatown NYC

Even though we’re in the middle of the World Cup frenzy, I’m sure Nash will have some surprises in store for the fans.  At least three NBA ballers are already confirmed to play – Brandon Jennings (Milwaukee Bucks), Tony Parker (San Antonio Spurs), and Jared Dudley (Phoenix Suns).  I’m sure other players will be rolling through too since the NBA Draft is this Thursday.  I’ll definitely be rolling through to take in the action so say what up if you see me.  It’s going down at Nike Football x Sara D Roosevelt Park on Houston Street (in between Chrystie and Stanton street).

NBA stars.  Soccer’s best.  An urban field.  A sweet 8-a-side game of futbol in the middle of a city benefiting children’s programs on three continents.

Steve brings his passion to play in this innovative match that any sports fan will love.  Showcasing athletes from two sports, Showdown is the beautiful game at its most creative.  With international rosters that have included Steve Nash, Thierry Henry, Claudio Reyna, Tony Parker, Adrian Mutu, Grant Hill, Ivan Cordoba, Baron Davis, Javier Zanetti, Ryan Babel, Salomon Kalou, Simone Sandri, Martin Nash, Mathieu Flamini, Edgar Davids and Chris Bosh the Showdowns are events not to be missed!

The Showdown in Chinatown is a free to the public event located on Chrystie St. and Stanton St. on the lower east side.  Steve Nash, Claudio Reyna, Tony Parker, Simone Motto, Brandon Jennings, Giuseppe Rossi and more!  For ways to make your assist for kids, click here.
