Free Country. The guy who knelt might want to think about that.


Lol this is retarded. It's a free country for both of them.

Nike toe boxes are too narrow. Do people really give a shite about this political stuff when they are dropping a hundred bones on some court shoes?

exactly why you don't let personal bullshite get in the way of business. It doesn't take a genius to understand that removing Nike from your sporting goods store is going to have a major impact.

What an idiot. Business has no place for political nonsense. Money is money.

I’ll go ahead and disagree with this one. The rest of Colorado is also pretty liberal. Maybe not the small mountain towns as much. But it ain’t just Boulder

Exactly, I just want to discuss how many pick 6's Christian Hackenberg will throw this weekend.

That's reasonable at this hour.

2.

He'll try for 4, but one will be called back for PI, and the other the defender will drop.

Taking the super anti-gay stance and/or saying being gay is a sin is so utterly stupid in 2019...

But if you think I'm gonna stop eating some delicious Chick Fil A, that's even more stupid.

I always Said, if you’re going to take a political stance, you better have a good enough product.

If you’re on the fence, being anti-anything (besides nazis and terrorists) is not going to help business

Chick fil a could probably say a few anti-Semitic remarks and I’d maybe still eat there

So the guy you don't agree with should think about his decisions, and the other guy you do agree with was "just doing what he felt right"?

Maybe it's you who should be doing the thinking

Just realized this, but the most ironic part of this whole thing is that he basically did just what the Nike ad says.

"Believe in something. Even if it means sacrificing everything."

He hated Nike so much so, that he followed their exact advice. Kudos to him
