Is Nike crazy using Colin Kaepernick as their face?

[maggiethebestdog]

Reading is fundamental - maggiesworstbitch

What the fuk do you think Tillman's wife meant by the following???? Sit your ass down.


“The very action of self expression and the freedom to speak from one’s heart—no matter those views—is what Pat and so many other Americans have given their lives for. Even if they don’t always agree with those views.”

That means she is saying Tillman would have no problem with Kap kneeling down for the anthem or even joining him???

Only in your delusional mind

[Kermit]

In an investigative, yet not surprising story from GQ, the men’s magazine found that about 1,200 people a year die over sneakers, namely the highly coveted Air Jordans.

People should be kneeling for this.

[Mac4Lyfe]

So to summarize Mac's two latest looney tune posts:
Someone who didn't know Pat Tillman and wrote an unauthorized biography of his life to make money says that Tillman would have knelt with Kap and his wife didn't say anything about Kap kneeling a year ago
Thanks for making us really think again Mac!!!!

Once again you show that you are a fukkking idiot. Now try to spin the following. Next you'll say that Tillman wasn't married or that his wife didn't really know him.

With the cooperation of Tillman's widow, Marie, Krakauer drew on her husband's journals and letters as well as scores of candid interviews to stitch together the soldier's complex persona, depicting the highly motivated athlete who thrived on David vs. Goliath challenges.

She probably thinks Kap is sacrificing as much for his beliefs than her husband did

Why does Nike do this? Why do they keep making a very limited quantity of something at a high price when they know that kids and young men are killing each other over them? This shit has been happening since the 80's.

I know other companies also do this as well. You'll see limited pieces from San Diego Comic Con on Ebay for $100's or $1,000's of dollars, but I never hear about anyone killing each other over that stuff.

I'm sure that Tillman's journals, letters and friends discussed at length how he would join Kap kneeling for the anthem over a decade before it actually occurred

Coo coo, coo coo, coo coo, coo coo, coo coo, coo coo, coo coo

Once again, reading is not your best suit. Do I have to feed you oatmeal, like a little child? Go read what Marie Tillman has said on the issue. She has clearly come out to tell Trump to back the fukk off and not use her husband as a lightning rod. She then went on to say that her husband believed in EVERYONE's right to express themselves and speak up for what they believe in, even if her husband didn't always agree with those views. She clearly said that Tillman was all about working together. She also said that America was already great, clearly aimed at Trump trying to divide.

Finally, the autobiographer that spent countless hours with her, learning about the psyche of Pat Tillman that published his autobiography, comes out and says that Tillman would have kneeled beside Kaepernick and we should believe your ill informed view over his? GTFOH with your bullshit.

Case fukkking closed. You just proved my point and shit all over your own.

Bottom line. I don't think she would think Kap is sacrificing as much as her husband. Tillman gave his life. No greater sacrifice than that. But, She does not seem to object to Kaepernick kneeling and thinks it is a non fukking issue and NO ONE should use her husbands sacrifice to divide. Especially Trump who bitched out of his commitment to serve.

So if Tillman disagreed with Kap kneeling, which is what his wife is insinuating, he would have knelt for the anthem like the guy who never met him says???

He wouldn't have stood for the anthem and just said that he disgrees with Kap but that Kap has a right to do it???

Of course that is what makes sense, but in the world of race baiting and book selling,
sense has no priority

If only he was shot at a school, then we could have Diane Feinstein tell the nation about Pat Tillman's desire to disarm the populous. It's common sense after all.

Interesting read in Forbes

Nike focused 100% on 12 cities only, many outside US. Only coastal cities in US of emphasis

Nike dropping incentives and promotions in middle America

Nike just sued by shareholders for discrimination and sexism

Looks like company is in complete chaos and prepping for a split or launch of minority brand extension perhaps

What??
Nike is a company that treats everyone great, ESPECIALLY their overseas "contractors" who pass on the lovefest to their "employees"

Just ask Mac

I'll buy more to take up the slack for people not buying Nike anymore.

I decided 35 years ago Nike was on my personal never-buy list. Golf shoes fell apart before I got 36 holes out of them; running shoes were, at best, mediocre.

I hope the execs at Nike gathered in a conference room yesterday to celebrate their new success. "They're burning our shirts and shoes!" "We lost 4 percent of the company's value today; keep up the good work!"

My cousin bought a good pair of Nike Airs in 8th grade. They fell apart way too fast; he complained and they gave him a new pair. He did this for 5 years. I think they ended up giving him about 10 pairs free because never lasted very long.

[reigle9]

lol i should take a pic of all my jordans, they all look like they went through a war and i barely move

no doubt they're garbage

current ones seem pretty sturdy though, probably a model specific

Why...........?

Almighty Capitalism 101........

Ask Trump to give you a lesson as he's the master of it............

You'll have to pay a mighty high price though as everything is break your bank account expensive when you're on the wrong side of the swinging battle axe of Capitalism............

Companies have to manufacture their goods in countries that have a cheap labor force.

They don't have to; they elect to for one simple reason: greed.

Nike shoes always run too narrow. I have wide feet so don't really own any nikes.

New Balance seems to be the friendliest when it comes to wide footed people.
