    I’ll apply only if I can actively pursue the celebration of military holidays and memorials such as Memorial Day, D-Day, 9-11, Pear Harbor, etc. I didn’t see much of this on Under Armour’s social media pages this year and would like to approve upon this to enforce UA commitment to the military. I remember the first piece of cool guy gear I bought while gearing up for OIF II was UA t-shirts They were a far cry better than the cotton paper towel t-shirts I wore in Desert Storm. If we can reach an agreement, Id be happy to apply.

    • Is this guy for real? says:

      Yes, I think Under Armour would love to reach an agreement with you regarding your celebratory needs of military holidays. I also think they would gladly change their marketing campaigns and social media posts to better align with your opinions and views.

      I’m sure you’d get the job. You sound like a great candidate.
