Nike just do it ad

I think it would have been a lot more appropriate for Nike to feature somebody in the military with their "just do it, even if it means sacrificing everything" ad. Somebody in the military is potentially going to sacrifice everything...
But Let's face it, Kaepernick didn't sacrifice anything. He was washed up anyway, and truthfully, couldn't ever be considered more than just a flash the pan. And wouldn't have been able to land a starting position to begin with... He would still only be offered a secondary position weather he took your knee or not. Which is exactly what he is being offerred and has repeatedly turned down
Just my honest opinion.

and directed at there targeted buyers
personally I agree taking a knee while "getting paid to be a performer" all of them should be fired and loose any and all contract offers forever
most people go to games , theater , movies , live stage acts to be entertained not hear or see the performers view on politics
thats what political rally's are for
with that said I am OK with take a knee do what ever you feel to protest on your own time with out harming anyone of course
as the constitution protects free speech
Obvious such a sacrifice has NOTHING to do towards benefiting our country as founded rather it is the exact opposite: They want to destroy America by any means possible. Attacks on culture and uniquely American institutions such as the NFL and our military are good starts. Toss in support for open borders and their attempts to expunge or change the US Constitution as others. These are what the people deem as sacrifices.
Nike will go the way of Dicks Sporting Goods .. who now will discontinue selling any hunting products.
Another POS company.

But let's see them keep that up . You can only buy so many pairs of tennis shoes before you're broke...
Nike and Kapercrap, take a long walk on a short pier, just do it...
You should sell that ad campaign to Adidas[:D]
