I own nothing with the Nike Logo on it and never will. I used to be a big supporter of Nike but no more, they are giving this man far too much credit for doing absolutely nothing. What did Betsy Ross do other than sew a flag that is offensive to anyone in the country, regardless of race, color or national origin. Nike are making some very stupid decisions business wise that will hurt them down the road. I switched to Adidas several years ago, love their athletic merchandise tnd find them to be much cheaper for quality merchandise than Nike.

Until today I owned one pr of New Balance and an old pair of Nikes. I’m now Strictly a New Balance man.
Bull **** at it’s finest.

This was a business decision plain and simple. Kaepernick made it an issue and Nike responded to their market....Capitalism is not without flaw.
I don't buy Nike shoes because, well, I just don't like the fit...that's it...nothing personal.

I see the Nike spike in sales a temporary thing in the US and it will hurt their sales in the US, long term.
As for sales in places like communist China, any company that is anti US, will probably give them good will with Chines buyers, but they won't pay the US prices for the products.
Would be nice to see big money donor's of college programs make the universities switch brands.

So I assume that Kap does not wear cotton clothing either based upon this logic. Nike better stop using cotton in their clothing.

Wife's Mad. Told me we never talk anymore. And just last nite while watching super bowl told her 2 or 3 times to get me a coke and popcorn. Also told her not to forget to take out trash in the morning. Ain't that something. Also told me I was too indecisive. Can't figure out what to do about that. One nice thing I guess. She called me a pro crastinator. Don't know what a crastinator is but I guess I'm a good one for her to call me a pro. Gonna wait til tomorrow to look that up though. I love her but somrtimes can't help but thinking I should have told uncle Junior to keep his coon hound pup and stevens double barrel and also his youngest daughter.
