lol. I didn't mean to imply that Nike's motivation is to troll the NFL, but in effect, yes they trolled the NFL. I think that is obvious.
You act like they can't in effect troll the NFL and try to increase profit at the same time. Maybe they can't. That's the interesting question IMO.
america is pretty sad. the only thing you can do with injustices, crooked media, and the downward trajectory of quality of life is make fun of it.
what people don't really see is the long term damage from all this stuff. i say all this from the conserv right.
repeat after me...........there's nothing you can do about it. you have to deal with it. things will get worse before they get better, and people will die because of it.
what's going on in this day and age crushes the controversy tipper gore caused married with children.

Nike's controversial bet on Kaepernick has millennial investors piling into the stock (NKE)

Nike’s controversial ad featuring Colin Kaepernick has paid off, at least among millennial investors, according to data from Robinhood, a no-fee brokerage popular among younger traders. The sneaker maker tapped several athletes including Kaepernick, the football quarterback who protested racial injustice by kneeling during the national anthem, as the faces of a campaign marking the 30th anniversary of its "Just Do It" slogan.
Nike shares are down 2% this week, following the campaign reveal on Monday. Meanwhile on Robinhood, a total of 15,191 investors added Nike to their portfolios this week, up 45% from last week, according to Business Insider's tracking of the data.
"Investors on Robinhood are buying Nike stock 300% more than they are selling, compared to 12% last week," Sahill Poddar, the app's data scientist, told Business Insider on Tuesday. "Investors in Oregon, where Nike is headquartered, are buying the stock 850% more than they are selling." Nike is the 37th most popular stock on the brokerage, up from 57th last week.
