And boy did it! It probably also helped that many of Kap’s supporters like myself made a run on Nike products. I personally bought 3 pairs of kicks, a golf shirt and some hats.
The swoosh is simply too ubiquitous in this world to be taken down by a protest in one nation.
It's funny how people put the NFL on a pedestal when they enjoyed tax-free status for so many years and contributed nothing to the country.
FTFY
It's funny how people put the NFL on a pedestal when they enjoyed tax-free and monopoly status for so many years and cost billions to the country for free stadiums.

Yay, Nike stocks are on fire!!!!!!! Congratulations Kaep, by kneeling, you accomplished your mission in making greedy monopolies richer. That is why you first took the knee right?
Nike's a monopoly? Sheesh, I guess we should alert Adidas, Reebok, ASICS, Converse, and the rest.
I bet Nike doesn't let their employees protest during work hours. Hmmmm
I know quite a few Nike employees. They seem pretty happy at Nike, what would they protest? Ohhh...I suppose you are hoping they protest Nikes support of someone protesting police shooting blacks unjustly? Yeah no, Nike doesn't have a large KKK contingent. Maybe some of the temps....
Apparently to people that know nothing about investments, a sideways trending stock chart relates to being "on fire". lol

Don't get carried away now. lmao I personally think he is a blundering fool for ruining his career and destroying his dreams and aspirations. Give it just a little time for the shock factor to wear off in the public and he will soon be forgotten only to be brought up once in a while by somebody trying to push an agenda. The media will find something else to go on and on and on about before long.
Poor kids in those Chinese sweat shops, forced to increase their output under penalty of torture no doubt due to your happy protest. Disgusting that you are cheering for it
Kap and others are bending knee to protest Blacks being killed by unjustly White Society, Police, Western Civ, etc. Racial injustice.
Nike pays KAP money so they can hijack Knee Bending issue to sell over priced clown shoes made in factories where some workers get paid as little as 30 cent/hour. Wonder what those people think of Kap?
Nike is a S&P 100 company. Guess who benefits mostly from it's profits?
Supporters of Knee Benders cheer. Must think they won something......
Fascinating indeed. They've been beaten by the very system they protest and don't even know it. This topic is testimate to it.
Yup ^^^
