Above the gray concrete of Union Square and crowds of tourists scrambling about it, you perceive, after a moment, the eyes of Colin Kaepernick.
The eyes of Kaepernick are gray and solemn their irises multiple stories high. They look out over Union Square in the city where the former San Francisco 49ers quarterback was once athletic royalty.

I always get my shoes on sale, my last pair set me back $10. So I can't boycott Nike, because I will never spend my money on expensive shoes. I do have a nice Nike jacket, cost was 75¢ at the local good will store. I will donate it to a nearby homeless shelter.

Nice poster you have there, pity something should happen to it. Or as they say: just do it (in).

I would like to think that is just a drop in the bucket compared to what they’ll lose in the long run, no pun intended. I’ve thought of Nike products as overhyped and overpriced so haven’t a chance to boycott their products. LOL His picture looks like a mug shot of a terrorist.

#30. Looks more like an ISIS fighter - all psycho eyed and perpetually anger at something.
If he is near you, check him for a knife.

Someone should make a animated cartoon GIF of ‘Nike’ with a gun to it’s head...”Just do it!”
It would work with it shooting ‘Nike’s’ foot.

They might as well put up a giant statue of Baphomet.

“’Nike’ with a gun to it’s head.”
That’s a pretty good meme.
I was thinking: “Just dump it.”
But Nike is, at the very least, shooting itself in the foot. And it could turn out to be a head wound.

$3.75 billion in stock value evaporated. Holy moly, are you for real? I missed a bunch of news today due to doctor's appointments.

I guess the billboard is way out of paintball range.

Maybe Nike could score big in San Francisco with rainbow colored shoes

I think he looks retarded, especially with that big afro. There's something weird about his eyes.
