As far as I know, yes. It is from someone who has a vested interest in constantly monitoring HQ's stupidities on the interwebz.

Sounds like Russ and Saran are scared/worried/concerned with what Reebok knows/doesn't know.

Considering how vile they've been towards their critics (public shaming, anonymous letters to bosses, etc), one of these days i wouldn't be surprsied if someone anonymously sent Reebok a file full of dirt.

They call themselves the "underground supplier of clothing to the @F community". It's not a tribal power button, it's intended to be a stopwatch. The sperm power button probably covers it better though.
Saw that stupid power button today on the back of a "wodkilla" ak47 t shirt. Didn't stick around to witness the dipshittery.

The babysquatting has been a bit sparse lately, but this broad decided to bring it back! Drywall saved it before she came to her senses (more likely someone else told her to take that dumb shit off of the interwebz, but too late!).

need to bail on an ohs, it might go in front of or behind you.

Need to bail on a fs, your baby loses his cranium.

She's an arrogant stupid bitch. Probably drives on the freeway with the little guy sitting on her lap. I hope someone sent that to CPS. Or her mother.

To top it all off, the preggo babysquatter went on Drywall's FB page and commented to the tune of..."I didn't know she was filming, I didn't mean for this to be posted, why are you guys SO MEAN TO ME?!?!"

Uh...it was posted on *her* FB wall with a title like "This is how I WOD these days..." I saw the original post but didn't screencap it.

She then deleted her comment.

Someone did some math on the competing offers.
http://anthosandcrossfit.blogspot.com.a ... mment-form
Let's Compare:

Anthos Deal -- $20 million TODAY. That will net her $17 million after taxes (long term cap. gains is 15%).

HQ Deal -- $17.5 million over 5 years, and heavily backloaded in payments. So what is the NPV (Net Present Value) of all of those future payments? If you plug HQ's numbers into an NPV calculator (http://www.calkoo.com/?lang=3&page=21), you will see that with a standard 10% discount rate, the actual NPV is only $12.55 million. Even if we are generous and use an 8% or 6% discount rate, the NPV is still only $13.36 million or $14.25 million, respectively.

For HQ's 5 year payment plan to equal the upfront money of Anthos, you would have to use an absurdly low 0.7% discount rate.

It seems that in addition to being surprisingly ignorant of all things fitness, HQ is also bad at basic math as well.
[...]
Or you could just go the common sense route and say that $17 million today is obviously worth more than $17.5 million over 5 years. Particularly when most of that money will come towards the end of the 5 years.

These people are unbelievably fucking stupid. The mother should be shot, and so should the fucking moron who filmed it. "That's a baby right there!" right bitch, that is a baby. Use some fucking sense.

EZ, can you post that picture of the hikers throwing their baby here? I can't do it from my iPad.
Believe it or not, this kind of stupidity is not limited to @fitters.

Crossfitters Against Anthos Capital

GREAT JOB EVERYONE!

Our post on LifeAsRx was liked over 60 times and commented on twice. Hopefully we'll hear back from LifeAsRx soon!
Looks like the nerdy kids from high school wet their pants after getting 60 likes. Maybe they can stop the anthos deal afterall!

EDIT: Apparently there are a few tards out there who didn't realize the title of this video was written sarcastically. If that was you, fist yourself.

CrossFit Files for Temporary Restraining Order Against Anthos Sale
http://www.scribd.com/doc/104644650/Cro ... nthos-Sale
Motion for a TRO:

Defendants/Counterclaim-Plaintiffs CrossFit, Inc. ("CrossFit" or the "Company") and Greg Glassman ("Mr. Glassman" and, with CrossFit, "Counterclaim-Plaintiffs"), by and through their undersigned counsel, hereby move the Court for an Order temporarily restraining and enjoining Plaintiff/CounterclaimDefendant Lauren Glassman ("Ms. Glassman" or "Counterclaim-Defendant") and her affiliates, employees, agents and any person acting on her behalf from consummating any sale of equity in CrossFit to thirdparty Anthos Capital ("Anthos").
....
Ms. Glassman has proceeded to petition the divorce court in Arizona to lift its injunction to permit her to consummate her sale to Anthos and prematurely divide the estate. A hearing on Ms. Glassman's motion is scheduled for September 5, 2012.
....
CrossFit and Mr. Glassman also face additional risk, such as loss of affiliates and adverse tax consequences upon conversion of CrossFit from an S-Corporation to a C-Corporation if the transaction is allowed to proceed. These harms further weigh in favor of an injunction in this case.


Exhibit 1...(pp. 17) AZ Divorce Preliminary Injunction
Exhibit 2...(pp. 21) NDA
Exhibit 3...(pp. 24) Letter from Lauren's attys to Latham & Watkins

Text message from Brian Mulvaney to Bryan Kelly on July 30:

Bryan, I understand that you are 'in it for the fight' This is my notice to you that I will make it my highest purpose to see that you lose. Lose the deal, lose your job, lose your reputation. Ah, I forgot something. Lose your dignity.

Exhibit 4...(pp. 29) Letter from Bergeson to Latham & Watkins

What is surprising is that the Company has taken the same extraordinary position in contravention of the fundamental principle of corporate law that the business affairs of every corporation shall be managed by or under the direction of a board of directors. CrossFit, moreover, has taken this position over the objection of one-half of CrossFit's Board of Directors, who seeks to challenge the unauthorized purchase of a Cirrus aircraft in accordance with her fiduciary duties. Your representation of both CrossFit and Greg Glassman improperty precluded the company from takin a contrary position or from even remaining neutral. Thus, allowing Mr. Glassman, who represents only one-half of the Board and who is exposed to personal liability, to direct the company's legal representation taints the fairness of this proceeding.

Exhibit 5...(pp. 33) Purchase Agreement

(pp. 40) Affidavit of Dale Saran

The agreement and announcement of it immediately cause the Company to be in a precarious position with a major technology company, on the scale of Apple or Intel, with whom we were negotiating a very important deal. (Members of our staff are under a non-disclosure agreement from that company and I don't feel at liberty to divulge the company name.) That deal, potentially a blockbuster technology deal and a very lucrative one for this company, has had to be tabled because of the Anthos' announcement of a potential new partner whom this technology company was not - and apparently is not - willing to take on a partner.

CrossFit's Media office...at least 60 full-time of the company work there...CrossFit is a virtual company

purchase by the Company of a private plane to ferry Mr. Glassman and key staff between Prescott, Arizona, San Diego (where the company has a leased residence for staff and hosts meetings and other company events), and Santa Cruz, California (near the Scotts Valley Media office).

This appears to contradict the statement in the original CrossFit counter-claims that

This acquisition is logical given the growing number of CrossFit affiliates located in regional markets that are not conveniently served by major commercial airports."

(44) Affidavit of Kenneth R. Smith
