30th anniversary of Just Do It
quote:

Nike was looking to do something significant for the 30th anniversary of their ‘Just do it.’ campaign, and for the better or worse, they did just that.

The company unveiled a powerful ad Monday, with the face of banished NFL quarterback Colin Kaepernick, with the words, “Believe in something. Even if it means sacrificing everything. Just do it.”



These idiots just don't get it. It wasn't the kneeling. It was when he kneeling and on company time.

Hell they probably do get it, but that won't let it stop them from the shock factor hoping to boost sales, the point of advertising.

Quite the conundrum for the woke SJW... Want to support Kap. but also know some Vietnamese kid is making your shoes in a sweatshop for 50 cents a day.

He would have gotten a job if he was a top notch QB.

Any CEO for any corp that splits their chance of making sales in half, for any reason whatsoever, deserves when their position to create sales and grow a corp gets revoked.

Furk Nike and this racist false agenda.

Seems like many people forget that he was no longer a starter and had been figured out by D coordinators prior to his flag nonsense coming about. If he was on the level of a Brady, Rogers, or Brees, he would have a job in the NFL to this day despite whatever baggage that would carry with it.

Wait... what kind of web site is "Dailysnark" is that even a legit source? Seems like something of this importance would be posted on a legit site first.

I retract my comments and say this is a false story from a fake news site until otherwise proven,

Nike was started in Eugene Oregon. This is expected behavior.

The kneeling with fist in the air shtick is the equivalent of some hippy chick living in a tree to "save the Earth". It's just juvenile nonsense.
