Nike Gave A Sneak Peak Of The New AFC Richmond Kits For Ted Lasso And They Look SEXY
I never thought that I would get excited about a soccer team's kit sneak peak, let alone a fictional soccer team's kit sneak peak. To be honest, I'm still shocked that my American ass said kit correctly to begin with, even if the folks on the other side of the pond think I'm a bloke for calling it soccer.
But that's just the kind of appeal the show Ted Lasso has on the soul. When I binged to catch up on Season 1, I made sure to only watch two episodes a night because it put me in a better mood than anything can other than 3Chi could (promo code POD for 5% off your order). Which is why I am thrilled that the people involved with this show were able to dip the beak into that deeeeep pool of Nike money.
The best part of all this for Nike isn't that the swoosh will be associated with a heartwarming show or the zillions of jerseys that are going to sell. It's that the good lads of AFC Richmond will be wearing them when they hopefully ***SEASON 2 SPOILER*** bury that cocksucker Nate The Snake. I hope that cunt burns in hell with the fire of 1000 suns (I can say the C word there because it's not as bad when you bring it up when talking about soccer) and AFC Richmond is wearing it to his figurative and literal funeral on the pitch. Fuck West Ham.
