They report that many are outraged with Nike.
Then who are the many?
Well, we know the race.

They behind the red clown of stupidity.

But pay attention Nike is the power broker.
They hold the strength of the NFL in their pocket.
And very aware that the NFL can't hurt them.

Fans, won't attend games.
Great!
You not hurting Nike for that race has not the power to break them.

Protest the support for a player by the company.
Don't attend your favorite team games.
Hurting Nike, truly not.

You will be hurting your city economy.
Cause many NFL teams success contribute to various companies.
And many, many charities.

A man stood up to injustice and only the fools think it's about the national anthem.
Then what do they stand up for?

The last major protest they got right was against the sixties war.
We have soldiers fighting presently and dying daily.
But many yet to challenge the government to figure this mess out.

Wait!
Once a political nut says outside threat.
The budget for the military goes through the roof.

Nike reminds you of the tough kid that couldn't be hurt.
They conquer what many couldn't?
