Nike selected former San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick as the face of its "Just Do It" campaign, which is celebrating its 30th anniversary.

Darren Rovell of ESPN reported the choice of Kaepernick, who started the movement to kneel during the United States national anthem to protest racial injustice in August 2016.

Couldn't agree more with the statement "Even if it means sacrificing everything."

Just don't whine and moan about the consequences of those choices.

NFL has suffered too, from his attention seeking crusade.

Good. God.

What a way to commit corporate suicide. No more Nikes, ever ever ever. Did they not see Dick’s?

If that’s not exploitation, I must have the wrong definition in mind. /s

Then again, this is the company who owns a very liberal public college in Oregon...

Bye bye Nike. No more new stuff for me if there’s a Nike logo on it.

He’s the opposite of just do it.

He’s just cry about it.

At the age of 30, Colin Kaepernick’s net worth is $20 million dollars, which makes him one of the highest paid quarterbacks in NFL history.

I propose a “NEW Just Do It Campaign!” Going to the graves of departed Marxists and “helping to over-fertilize the grass” on their graves through the broadcasting of “liquid fertilizer.” McCain’s spot is in the on-deck circle!

So Nike wants to take a stand instead of make money. Fine. I’ll help by not buying anything thst says ‘Nike’ on it. Let Nike sacrifice everything...

Another reason why I dislike Nike and have never purchased their crap.

Just virtue signalling to the Dindunuffins to buy their $200 sneakers...or steal them from some else.

This means that Nike supports disgracing the flag, it’s time to “Nuke Nike”.
