Tom Brady ‘likes’ Colin Kaepernick Nike deal

[Enfuego]

It’s pretty safe to assume your %s are way off and way more people are apolitical or just don’t give a shit enough to follow Nike’s PR campaign.

If they legitimately just pissed off 130 million US adults, their stock wouldn’t be down 2%.

Not sure how or why but you spend too much time in a bubble bro.

Well of course not everyone cares. Thought that was a given bubble boy.

Take out the people that don’t care and it’s still gotta be close to 50/50 I assume.

We aren’t tarring talking about everyone. I mean, there are still people using AOL Dialup.

Nike and NFL deal runs through 2028.

Well then, I can now safely say this will have absolutely no impact.

God you are absolutely clueless.

Eh it’s pretty stupid. He’s never gonna play again and who is really gonna buy any Kaep related apparel?

I think it probably works better 10 years ago before social media and altnetative media internet sites rose up. This will help the side that is listed at Nike to mobilize better than ever before.

Not all pub is good pub. But ultimately as far as the financials of the company in a year or two or maybe even just a few months, it’s likely negligible.

It’s not bad publicity to begin with though.

Nike has all sorts of marketing experts analyzing every possible outcome and reaction and you think they did this to sell more gear or merchandise? Lol this is Nike bro. They can do this because they know in 3 months when Christmas comes and you want some new shit you probably are going to still look at and buy Nike. And you say all publicity isn’t good publicity. Who says it is bad publicity? Trump? Bad message how? It is only really bad publicity to those who are offended. Are you offended?

Because I am sure these marketing experts who know Nike and get paid by Nike to make critical decisions, know their shit. They are taking a stance in the biggest debate maybe in 10 years, which occurred in sports. They almost had an obligation if they supported Kaepernick. And to get people talking about Nike, Kaepernick, and Trump all in one sentence. That’s smart. Who is their audience anyway? Not really old white people anyway

If you take out the people that don’t care it’s close to 50/50 lol

The fuck?

So once you remove millions upon millions of people, it’s close to 50/50.

the extended it this year. i was looking at the initial one.
guess they got them tied up. sure it bothers some owners

I'd say they know their shit much better than some emotional internet poster without a lick of logic, that pulls numbers out of his ass.

Not even worth the time. He's hopeless with the math skills of a chimpanzee.

God you are absolutely clueless.

And now the personal insults begin.

Fair enough. Nke will lag spy by 20% next few years? 30%?

Id bet the under on both but anything is possible.

 

[bodyforlife]

And now the personal insults begin.

Actually, that's not an insult. It's a fact. Ever take a math class?

Maybe I’m not being clear.

Take out all the people that don’t care. It’s millions of people.

Out of the remaking that give half a shit about the issue, I assume it’s around a 50/50 split whether they agree with Nine or not.

That’s all.

Calling a guy absolutely clueless is a fact. Got it.

Taking Willie’s advice. Not getting pulled into the sewer on this one.

 

[PatsFan1283]

That’s fine, the point I’m making is I think these tsunami PR issues seem like a much bigger deal to you than they really are. And I think that probably has something to do with internet usage habits. Thus creating a bubble effect.

I think to most people kaep is old news.

But it if I were running NIke I wouldn’t have done it. Just not worth the risk/or nightmare.

This stuff comes and goes fast though.

And I don’t even think it’s 50/50 I think you piss off more people with anthem stuff than make people sympathetic to your cause.

Who is their audience anyway? Not really old white people anyway

your entire comment was correct until there. i agree with everything you said until you assumed that only old white people have a problem with it. we have no need to discuss the stance but people who support the police, the military or the president will take issue. its a lot more than just old white people. long term i think i agree that nike will be fine and likely get the support of other athletes which will sign with nike. people have made their point there. but its not just old white people who dislike this.

How the move makes any business sense is beyond any sort of business logic.

Telling you that there's less than 30% registered Republicans (many of which are mature enough to ignore this troll) and then listening to you still insist that they are pissing off 50% of their customers proves to me that you are indeed clueless.

Agree, wouldn’t have touched the issue.

If I had to wager on your logic or the logic of someone at NIKE, I'm taking NIKE.

I’m an unregistered Republican as I assume there are many unregistered Democrats as well.
