    Nike Nixes ‘Betsy Ross Flag’ Sneaker After Colin Kaepernick Intervenes:

    https://www.wsj.com/articles/nike-n...after-colin-kaepernick-intervenes-11562024126

    “Nike Inc. is yanking a U.S.A.-themed sneaker featuring an early American flag after former NFL star-turned-activist Colin Kaepernick told the company it shouldn’t sell a shoe with a symbol that he and others consider offensive...”

    Glad I never bought into the hype behind that company.

    The only thing Nike likes about the USA is the $$$ it makes from the USA

    Speaking from a business perspective, I always find it unbelievably stupid when businesses.....especially massive corporations.....get sucked in to this kind of bullshit by charlatans like kaepernick. The overall impact to your bottom line is never positive because you always alienate a large portion of your prospective clientele.

    You either sell overpriced sports products made overseas by cheap/child labor or you're an activist. Which is it? It's hard to be both.

    Yet Jesse Jackass and Al Sharptongue set the stage and made a fortune doing it.
