Every time I get on I-87 heading north, I see "GoliathLabs, Sports Nutrition." Why would they name a product after a big, dumb loser? Goliath was a big bully who was defeated by a small man with brains. Is their audience big, dumb bullies?

It's a bit more exotic than "David Labs", makes you big & strong, even if it is dumb.

As they say, "Might makes right." Maybe it's better being big, strong, and intimidating. I'll try that next time around. : )

I believe someone mentioned, in another post, that his sister was very sick and that’s where his attention is now.

Jerry, people don’t associate the name Goliath with a big bully. They imagine something Big and Strong.
I’m pretty sure “Sports Nutrition” is the image thecompany is trying to instill.

Where do you see the disconnect between "big dumb bully" and "sports nutrition?"
