san jose get duped into pyramid scheme

Posted by yamsmos on January 28, 2009 · Under News · View Comments 

in other news, a door to door salesman showed up on the training grounds of San Jose this week. before you call my bluff, have you ever been to the san jose training ground? they have a large door that says “solicitors welcome”, so know you know my story is all true. anyway, a “salesman” mentioned to a club representative that if they just print a specific logo on the front of their jersey, and then they get some people to buy some of those jerseys, and then everyone that buys those jerseys has three friends to buy more jerseys and so on and so on, well they would make a lot of money.

it sounded like a solid idea, and that is how san jose thought it would be a good idea to put AMWAY on the front of their jersey.

you may not like X-Box as a sponsor, but thank your lucky stars that you are not going to be the laughing stock of the errrr, people who… err… laugh at your shirt… sponsor…, or something like that anyway.

san jose… ha ha ha ah haha ha ah…. amway haaha ha hha hha *sigh*

    Kind of childish man. I know several Amway (Quixtar) distributors and all are very cordial, well-adjusted folks. One of my acquaintances is a mega-millionaire and one of the most charitable people I know, all from Amway. People who confuse a moron they knew that was (or is) in that business as the entirety of Amway Global are far more ignorant than those they criticize.

    With that said… AMWAY!!!!!! Bwahahahahahaha! I bet they use a 6-4-2 formation! Xango, Herbalife, Amway, FCD will be next with Mary F*cking Kay! Bwahahahaha!

    if poking fun at a well known MLM company is childish… well then send me to bed early.

    it is very well known that amway is a multi level marketing company and i for one wouldn’t like that type of company to be my shirt sponsor. whether you think amway is a solid company or not, you have to admit that Amway has always had a stigma for being a pyramid scheme.  it is a case of perception being reality for some.

    i have to say though, i like your 6-4-2 formation comment… even if that is 12 players on the pitch.

    Me thinks your sarcasm meter needs adjusting… ;-)
