I guess the 7 year old Indonesian girl who earned $2 making that shoe will be beaten for her mistake.
To: C19fan
But the sportswear giant says its an isolated occurrence.
An isolated occurrence that happened in one of the biggest NCAA games of the year, to the biggest college basketball player in the nation. With an ex-president watching. Way to go, Nike - might want to give those poor Indonesian kids who assemble your shoes a little more glue to work with.

I bought one pair of genuine Nike cross training shoes for my work (long story,) and they are the lightest shoes I've ever owned. I can see how they could tear or blow out if put under the stress of a professional athlete.

Forced laborers in Soviet gulags would deliberately sabotage the products they were making to embarrass their oppressors and deny them income from future exports.
Just sayin’.
To: AnotherUnixGeek
I’d have preferred this to have occurred with the Fraud watching more than any US President.
To: C19fan
I have never seen a new, or relatively new shoe just give out like that, the entire seam just gave way...
NIKE, Just destroy your career..
To: C19fan
Nike gets the exact quality it deserves because it uses slave labor.
No one should buy their chitty choose.
Terminate their team sponsorship FOR CAUSE .

I posted shortly after the incident, that i guaranteed NIKE execs were figuring out their spin already....
Taking out the expected number one overall draft pick because your shoe literally just obliterated itself on a simple foot plant....

An isolated occurrence or fake occurrence.

I don’t buy Nike because of the price. I did not know they used slave labor.

Hmmm, what famous basketball player is associated with Nike's most popular basketball shoe.
And where did said basketball player play his college ball?

Isn’t Nike based in Oregon?
Isn’t Oregon one of the worst states for business? Why do they stick around?
This shoe malfunction may be a symptom of a greater problem....
Here are just a few of their recent ‘brilliant’ moves, by Nike’s HQ state...
Oregon set to become 1st state with mandatory rent controls
Oregon lawmakers seek to lower voting age in state to 16, so teens can protect their future
Oregon Democrats introduce statewide socialized medicine legislation.
Oregon Democrats introduce bill to protect criminal illegal aliens
The hits just keep coming, with this Socialist state. Geez.
Run, Nike, run!

My only question in this is: Did UNCheat have any players participating in the game that actually now attend their classes?
