Why my husband's (sport) job rocks

DH got an e-mail from Puma Apparel - they are a supplier for some of the sports teams he works with, and they want "real life athletes" for an upcoming photoshoot.

Since NCAA student-athletes are prohobited from appearing in these sorts of things (they can't use their likeness to promote a product, or their status as a student-athlete to promote a product) DH asked if I could do it (since I participate in USMS - US Masters Swimming - and regularly run road races).

They said sure!  I don't get paid in money, but I will get paid in clothes.  Which isn't bad either!

I swim because I'm too damned sexy for a sport that requires real clothing.

  • That's cool!  Does he need any other athletes, I play rec softball!   Big Smile

    My girlfriend is a triathlete, I give her tons of credit for doing that, just something I couldn't do.

  • Yep, the perks are nice, aren't they?

    Aside from the thousands of dollars worth of clothes we get free from the school, Under Armour also gives us a shopping spree online every year..they give us a nice $ amount and then everything is 50% off so really it is double the amount they give us. I have so much UA stuff! Love it! 

    Have fun!

    Oooh, I wish I could get UA, but we're not sponsored by a specific school (our program is too small).  But we do get it all at cost after we go through our allowance Yes
