Tom Brady vs The Rock

[BobDigital]

So Brady sent an Under armor video to The Rock and The Rock sent one back.

This is surely all planned out by Under Armor to try to get a funny fake feud going (both are paid to pitch under armor)





It just tickled me and is a smart add campaign. Also, sign the beast?

I smell what under armor is cooking.

On a side note, who is going to spend $200 for pajamas? Ok, I have four 199 Under Armour shirts in varying colors, but sorry Tom, I ain't spending $200 on PJs.

The shirt is $99 and the pants are $99.

Wow. I've been wearing the same $10 T-shirt and pants to sleep for a few years now. I don't even wear a $200 set to work. Maybe $60 max including underwear.

Well I picked up an underarmor T-shirt in a fortuitous laudry mix up a couple of months a go, and I can't be happier. It immediately turned into my most used article of clothing. No I would never pay more than $5 for a t-shirt, let alone $200, but I have to admit, I do tend to do my laundry a bit more often these days hoping for lightning to strike twice.

I usually just use retired gym wear. So technically all my sleepware is free.

Under Armour is pretty great. I have all kinds of their stuff, but (when home) I sleep nekked so I'm good. On the road or deployed, I just use old gym clothes...ehhhhhh...

I love the man to death, but clearly the gods saw fit to handicap his acting skills to balance out his other gifts.

Very mechanical and unauthentic.

Its almost like when he did the SNL guest appearance 12 years ago was his acting high point.

In Ted 2 he was ok.

Here's UA's spiel on the pajamas:

"The science behind bioceramaics is really coming into its own. What things are being claimed against it, they are fairly basic things, but they are the unlock to recovery," Silbert says. "When you have better blood flow, toxins like lactic acid and other things flush out of your body faster and aid in reducing inflammation. That incremental benefit when you're sleeping is significant for athletes."

Now initially I would dismiss this sort of thing as pseudo-scientific garbage, but I actually have heard of a study that showed that absorbing infrared energy reduces inflammation in mice. The caveat is that the study was done under a high temperature, higher than what you would normally sleep in; there needs to be a lot more evidence that this technology actually does what it says it does.

However I do think that we have a limited understanding of the detrimental effects of inflammation on health and quality-of-life in general, and this is one of the next fields medicine will explore. So I guess what I'm saying is that on the surface, the concept of wearing $200 pajamas is ridiculous, but there is a small chance there might be something there. Of course it doesn't hurt that Brady is the pitch-man, if it were Pink Head trying to sell these, I would ridicule him without mercy.

Not buying the claims or the sleepware

Tom is a terrible actor

DISCLOSURE: I own a TB12 T shirt (thanks to my daughter)

 

[PatriotsReign]

He'd be the 13 guy I slapped around for wearing a man purse/fanny pack

He's lucky he's not wearing a man bun!

 

[Todd Bradley]

Sad that this week, it's a much more interesting matchup than Brady/Osweiler LOL

 

[FCB02062]

"recovery sleepwear" for $200? Yeah, right after I buy my TB12 Whey for $54...
