I don't believe the surging sales bullshit. Nike is creating this story. "Meet the new boss, same as the old boss" | |||

The sales spike does make sense. Look at all the free marketing and publicity Nike is getting. I’m more curious about what happens in the long run when the furvor dies down. Do the people Nike alienated matter compared to its targeted audience with these adds? Will there be a long term consequence? I never bought Nike stuff so other than being annoyed at seeing Kaps face in the news again I don’t really have a dog in the fight. Only time will tell. *IF* in a few weeks/months sales lag or things go bad for Nike they will just spin it so something else is to be blamed. The longer it takes for any real negative consequences so appear the easier it is to blame it on something else. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The price of liberty and even of common humanity is eternal vigilance | |||

Maybe the Trump economy has created more disposable income. Set the controls for the heart of the Sun. | |||

Now Ford is getting in on it? I thought at first it was BS but now I'm seeing more news stories on this. Why would Ford wade into these waters? Don't weep for the stupid, or you will be crying all day | |||

 "Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." -- Justice Janice Rogers Brown "The United States government is the largest criminal enterprise on earth." -rduckwor | |||

Since I'm not a sports person I've never bought any Nike products in the first place, so I can't boycott them. Those who can do have my moral support, though. flashguy Texan by choice, not accident of birth | |||

Ford also publically said they were going to stop building cars and just had 2 million F-150s recalled. Jumping into a HIGHLY charged political topic is par for the course for that retarded company. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The price of liberty and even of common humanity is eternal vigilance | |||

Way to go Kenner, LA!!!!! Home to THE best po boys in the WORLD!!!  A Louisiana mayor banned city booster clubs from buying Nike products Nike’s sales are up 31 percent after the brand revealed a new “Just Do It” campaign featuring Colin Kaepernick, the former San Francisco 49ers player who created the “take a knee” movement to protest police brutality. Despite the increase in sales, though, not everyone is happy about the new ads. Some people have burned and cut up their Nike products to show their dissatisfaction with the Kaepernick campaign. And now, an entire city has apparently decided not to support the athletic company. The Times-Picayune reported Sunday that Ben Zahn, the Republican mayor of Kenner, La., instructed the city’s recreation department to not buy anything that showed the Nike logo. Zahn didn’t immediately respond to Yahoo’s request for comment. Full story at this link: https://www.yahoo.com/lifestyl...ducts-192000629.html "If you’re a leader, you lead the way. Not just on the easy ones; you take the tough ones too…” – MAJ Richard D. Winters (1918-2011), E Company, 2nd Battalion, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne "Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil... Therefore, as tongues of fire lick up straw and as dry grass sinks down in the flames, so their roots will decay and their flowers blow away like dust; for they have rejected the law of the Lord Almighty and spurned the word of the Holy One of Israel." - Isaiah 5:20,24 | |||

I apologize.. It may have been BS. I thought it was, then I saw on several web sites they were talking about it, but it may be BS. These sites look like fake news and charlatans, I can't find it on any reputable sites. Don't weep for the stupid, or you will be crying all day | |||

Perhaps there is a relationship between those who control "the larger well known corporations" (can we also include institutions of higher learning; indeed, our public schools) and what is being called The Deep State and/or Globalists' When HRC was a shoe-in for the White House it seemed that many on the Left were being more open in stating their end goals. It was and still is, as if they are so close to achieving the conversion of America that they still keep doubling down on their actions thinking -- Just a little more and 'we' will win. Do not necessarily attribute someone's nasty or inappropriate actions as intended when it may be explained by ignorance or stupidity. | |||
