Back in the spot light again is the all time chump of kneeling, Colin Krapernick. Seriously, of all the company’s he could link up with, it’s Nike. Well, okay, we aren’t really surprised. Upper Northwest and a liberal CEO. The new NIKE advertisement came out and it doesn’t look good to consumers. Nike has picked the wrong side and they have teamed up with Krapernick. Funny thing is the elite media and some others are claiming is all okay.
So the question is why are there so many not getting this? Most people don’t want to talk about politics or like to get away from it now and again. People like to get into entertainment shows or even sports to get away from issues or problems of the day. Since football was a place to do that at one point, it no longer is a safe place to get away any more.
The other reason most are irate about this is that many of these athletes are wealthy enough to provide support or provide other resources to do it on their own time. And many don’t put the money where their mouth is, except to only give lip service. These athletes are also assuming that the “Man” is still holding them down…. which is a croc too. But that is mis-information from the media and a different story.
Really, if you’re not standing for the USA/Anthem, then you are against our military. This is not the time nor the place to be doing this protest. PERIOD.
That is why a lot of people that see that the kneeling in the NFL is another reason to NOT watch then this year again. And it looks like Nike is pissing off their consumers and are burning their gear, seen below.
Their stock took a hit on September 4th and yet has to recover.
Also, it looks like the season opener has been hit with fewer viewers, a 9-year low.
