"Believe in something", anything at all. Doesn't matter if it's true or not.

the mantra of meaninglessness.

He also sucked at his job. Playing the position of quarterback in the game of football.

If Tom Brady wanted to be a little bitch and kneel every national anthem, he’d still be playing ball.

You guys realize that adidas may be more left wing than Nike, right?

The only answer (that I’m aware of) is New Balance

I think they feel the decision would somehow help their bottom line. Or, perhaps they don't really care about their bottom line, being the behemoth they are in their industry. Either way, good for them. I won't be spending money on Nike, nor anyone in my family, but I don't think it'd make much of a difference.

I guess its no longer a company that's out to make money, and instead, its a political and social organization, out to change the world.

Welcome to the club. Haven't supported Nike in over 15 years since I realized they have children making their shoes and they pay $0.07 a day while giving LeBron James 93 million dollars to wear them. But yeah I guess it's just as bad that a guy kneeling got a contract.

You guys have fricked up priorities

It was nice to see some jimmies get rustled today.

Nike is a private company. Let's see what the market thinks of their marketing strategy.

Bet they do just fine.

This Ad is just a racist dog whistle to blacks and anti-white racists.

They will all likely buy Nike more

Nobody is saying they can’t do what they want... but stupid to align yourself with an anti-cop, pro-blm, anti-flag, piece of shite who was raised by a Christian family bc he didn’t have parents who suddenly wants to revolt bc he wants to be the center of attention,

They need to have a picture of their child labor overseas who makes the products in sweat shops.

Then have the caption.”can we take a break yet.”

I didn't read the whole thread, but surely someone has pointed out that he lost his job because he wasn't a good QB and not because he has liberalism disorder, right?
