Sports sponsorship doesn't come cheap when it comes to the most influential athletes. Find some of the biggest sports sponsorship deals in history here.
It almost seems like the DL is acting as an enabler. It is crazy how negative the reaction has been to AW. The sport in general is dirty at this level. Maybe they do not care. But everyone else following the sport sure seems to.
Has anyone considered she was invited to Brussels so they could get a blood sample for the ABP?

It's hilarious that cynics think everyone else is a cynic.
What a pathetic life.
Meanwhile if you look carefully at Wiley's Instagram you can she how unaffected she is. She's got folders in there with photos and videos of various aspects of her life. And it's hardly true none of the other runners respond to her. She's got a clip in there of the indoor race against Maatoug, followed by another post of that race emphasizing that both women received 4:29 conversion times. Wiley and Maatoug follow each other on Instagram, obviously stemming from that race.
I challenge you to list 5 sponsorships with the amount.
I hope they make the final numbers and terms public. Until then you have to use logic. No one shares real numbers mid negotiation with the public.
Clearly you have no idea how any of this works and you are just pulling stuff out of your a**. The dollar amounts of the sponsorships for track and field athletes aren't made public. If you knew anything about track and field you would know that.
Has anyone answered what race she's doing? Is it the DL Final? World Road Running Champs? NACAC?
The World Road Running Championships are September 30 and October 1 but Wiley has never expressed interest in that event, although she could have changed her mind.
One of the Huntington University coaches did say a few days ago that Wiley wants to run in the Pan American Games held in late October and early November.
I'm not aware of any NACAC meets being held this fall. If anyone knows differently, let me know.
It’s world running champs. She announced it today in an EPIC speech when she was named Cross Roads League Athlete of the Year. Many of the online trolls here were able to hear her speech live and in person as it was about them! How did it feel being publicly shamed by a 19 year old Quinn? Moody? Neideck?
I am going to do my best to get the full audio as EVERY ONE on letsrun needs to hear it.
The blockbuster shoe contract has been a staple for NBA stars since Michael Jordan made basketball sneakers fashionable in the 1980s. Nike, Adidas, Under Armour, Puma and others have jockeyed to si…

Correct. They usually do not make them public. The only insight we get is from anonymous agent polls written on Letsrun. Although given the year of hate Rojo has shown Wiley I am not sure I will believe any figure he reports. Double whatever that poll says the next time he runs one.
Then again, after having his call screened twice by a Super Agent this last week I am not sure Robert Johnson will ever have the access again to publish such an article. I’ve heard they did since connect in the phone, but that the agent doesn’t value Rojo’s opinion on anything Wiley/Huntington/Johnsons. It should make him stop and think hard if he has backed the right horse in this one.
You have some there. How many are current players? I don't think you have 5 there. And you are incorrect to state that every professional sponsorship is public. Only a handful of mega deals are public. How much does Aaron Rodgers earn from State Farm for example?
I’ll get the audio if I can and upload it so you can hear for yourself. By now everyone should be listening to what Addy Wiley has to say. She is well spoken and intelligent beyond her age. For far too long people have allowed their opinions to be Stoffeled by the narrative Hannah, David, and Jon want pushed. An opposing view would be good for you.
