Oldtrooper Posted September 4, 2018 Report Share Posted September 4, 2018 One of the best things about being old and living in the past ... I have nothing made by Nike ... My athletic days peaked sometime around 1969 ... But I'm with ya in spirit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adg105200 Posted September 4, 2018 Report Share Posted September 4, 2018 Not a football fan, but I'm 100% with you! And with companies like Salomon around, I've never had and never will have Nikes. Andrew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baltimoreed11754 Posted September 5, 2018 Report Share Posted September 5, 2018 I also am too old for nike labeled crap but I am with you also. The labels on my sporting items are little horses, s’s and w’s etc. My comments continues to be is A-they’re AT work, on the clock, and B- they’re protesting the WRONG thing. If they want to protest the Baltimore PD, LA PD or Chicago PD then when you’re off go there and protest all you want, it’s your right as an American. And yes, America has problems and they need to be corrected but don’t disrespect the flag that so many have died and were maimed for. Getting off my soapbox now.

ppgcowboy Posted September 6, 2018 Report Share Posted September 6, 2018 I would have asked for a refund, burning them makes you feel good, but they still made a sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geefal Posted September 29, 2018 Report Share Posted September 29, 2018 so they have your money still and now you have nothing. makes sense to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Normal1959 Posted October 1, 2018 Author Report Share Posted October 1, 2018 so they have your money still and now you have nothing. makes sense to me You call "satisfaction" nothing? I bought a warm, fuzzy feeling expressing myself that day. As I get older, I find more and more people that treat money like their children. I think it's always been that way but I never noticed it. I use my money in many ways. Thank you God for blessing me and being able to treat "dirty paper" this way. Now, would I go out and buy Nike just to burn it?...………….no. I didn't see this coming so I had to react, after the fact.I feel good.Eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Normal1959 Posted October 1, 2018 Author Report Share Posted October 1, 2018 Nike sales went up 31% after they signed Colin go figure. Short term ad effect. I am praying it was short term. I wish them the worst.Eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tray burge Posted October 5, 2018 Report Share Posted October 5, 2018 Nike sales went up 31% after they signed Colin go figure.Only because everybody was putting them out on clearance! I saw them, brand new at a department store display table for like 20-30 bucks a pair! The true test is how their re-order shipments go up or down. I used to only wear Nikes, this is what I did with mine and then threw them in the garbage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Normal1959 Posted October 5, 2018 Author Report Share Posted October 5, 2018 My wife walked out the other night wearing a pair of mens workout shorts. They were almost never worn. Lol She looked puzzled as i walked over to her with a pair of scissors. I promptly cut the Nike label off the bottom right side. She was laughing and glad i didn't burn them.I don't support anyone who won't stand for the flag or the national anthem. It's cut and dry.Nike sold their souls to the devil for a cheap ad campaign. Good for anybody throwing out Nike. Do not wear anything Nike.Eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ppgcowboy Posted October 6, 2018 Report Share Posted October 6, 2018 I have never owned a Nike or an Apple, never had Starbucks, Ben and Jerry, oror voted for a Democrat,I have grudgingly voted for the lesser of the two evils. I do however drink wine from California. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
