Late last year, one of those Fools, All-Star TheMiracleDJR, nicely summed up the Under Armour bull case for our community:
Products live up to the hype. Names is purest genius. Wins the minds of Jr. High and High School kids who probably stick with them for life. Very motivated CEO and workforce. Hard to imagine them not making it to a [$10 billion] market cap some day.
