YSU and NIKE
« on: June 12, 2021, 01:13:27 PM »
I just read a press release about the new agreement with Nike and the YSU athletic department.  The "Business Manager" is quoted as referring to the Nike logo as a swish twice when its SWOOSH.  DO U HAVE NO RESPECT FOR YOUR CRAFT STROLLO AND COMPANY? WHAT A DISGRACE THESE PEOPLE ARE TO THE UNIVERSITY AND THE ATHLETIC DEPARTMENT.

I personally could care less. Tell me about the money that we are going to make from Nike. It is June. Tickets go on sale, youth camps for a new staff begin next week, record turn-out for the Penguin Club golf tournament, still have a waiting list for loges at the Ice Castle, new facilities. This is what it is all about. Great season's for bowling, baseball, track and more

To be clear, I have never been a fan of the business practices of the YSU athletic department.
However, just to fair to Steve, he was quoted in the article using “swish” three times by the writer, John Virgo.
I don’t know who (Steve or John) made the mistakes. It is also possible it was due to the spell check.

"SWOOSH go the Quins", which is FAR better than "swish"!
