Kaepernick then they did something controversial with Betsy Ross, or something. I don’t know, I don’t pay close attention as to why they’re mad, just that they’re mad.
They gave Kapernick (however you spell it) an ad or something. Cue Joe tweeting some hot derivatives tips. I've worked in finance for 16 years and low level traders love guys like Joe. They're their bread and butter. Dipshits who think they know what they're doing and have a few dollars to fleece. I seem to remember Joe's pearl of wisdom was "BUY OPTIONS" (didn't specify which kind - a put I guess) and claimed that Nike's share price would soon tank because fat boomers like him wouldn't buy a $60 pair of Monarchs every 5 years from them anymore. Needless to say, it didn't.
He also said that they'd realize their mistake and issue an apology. He had seen it happen to so many companies whose executives got caught saying the N word, this was essentially the same thing.
Nike rely on professionals with graduate degrees who earn 100k/year minimum and live in one of 16 cities worldwide for something like 40% of their sales. A lot of those customers are women who think nothing of buying a few hundred dollars worth of fitness apparel every few months.
A good portion of the rest of their sales are athletic gear (colleges, pro sports fans) and "urban" youths who, again, will buy a new $200 pair of Jordans or Air Max every couple of weeks.
In short, none of these demographics are going to stop buying Nike products if they do a commercial with Kapernick. In fact quite the opposite.
The 60 year old fatshit who buys a pair of the cheapest shoes Nike makes every half decade is not a customer they give a shit about.
"Win" as in introduce himself to the country on national television as a guy who repeatedly denies being a pedophile when no one asked him any question related to that.

Joe’s sponsored he has to wear his signature shoe.

Strong orthopedic support and cool, casual fashion transcends politics.

I’m out of the loop, what did Nike do to earn his ire?

He also advised the opposite of what he intended. What a fucking buffoon.

Why is he wearing court room shoes?
1 Officer_McGrady 2019-07-16
Because he’s Long Island gutter trash.
1 iPadsFromPizzaFace 2019-07-16
It was the only win Joe has ever earned (the people's court) you think hes taken off those are his good luck charms
1 Single_Action_Army 2019-07-16
"Win" in name only
1 RiverdaleBandit 2019-07-16
"Win" as in introduce himself to the country on national television as a guy who repeatedly denies being a pedophile when no one asked him any question related to that.
1 redditsipowillsuck 2019-07-16
Joe wears those puppies on and off the court, right folks?

"I didn't wanna bring up reddit, I really didn't wanna bring up reddit. They're called pests. I'm not a pedophile. I'm not a pedophile."
1 Jungies 2019-07-16
He didn't deny he was a paedophile; just kept bringing up the accusations.
1 Officer_McGrady 2019-07-16
Upvote this comment if you think it’d be funny if Joe Cumia had a heart attack and died.
1 PatBattle1 2019-07-16
looks like an awesome party. brother joe should play the roast audio to launch his podcast!
1 aRTie02150 2019-07-16
I hope nobody replaces the bottle with a penis. That would be vulgar and likely boorish if you ask me.
1 SpaceEdgesBestfriend 2019-07-16
agreed, at least there’s someone left here with taste and decency.
1 Insomnia423 2019-07-16
That beer? COMP'D! You fucking civilians wouldn't know about that shit.
1 Doc_McCoyXYZ 2019-07-16
A privilege most artists performing original music don't get.
1 LamarThePotato 2019-07-16
At least everything in that photo is consistent.
1 snargfursk 2019-07-16
A 70 year old man wearing a Call of Duty shirt and Nike sneakers. The man oozes success.
1 GloryHolejoeH 2019-07-16
Look at the kid standing next to him with shaved legs.
1 bigbird911 2019-07-16
Don’t forget the basketball shorts, perfect attire for a potbellied ungulate who wants to class up his own birthday party
1 UnwarrantedArrogance 2019-07-16
I’m just so fucking jealous of him and his life.
1 George_W_Kush_911 2019-07-16
That life, this place has no effect on ?
1 YangtzeRiverChina 2019-07-16
It's impossible to not be jealous

1 McGowan9 2019-07-16
Bald, fat, gay, lifelong unemployment, failed marriage, a judge tells him when he can see his own child.
Loser.
1 SibHashian13 2019-07-16
But he does have nice sneakers while hanging out in a mansion with a glass bottle beer. War hero Joe wins again, folks
1 redditsipowillsuck 2019-07-16
An awful man sitting in an even worse chair.
1 jokespot 2019-07-16
ANYONE CAN DO IT
1 Jungies 2019-07-16
Joe drinking a beer feels wrong somehow; like when they used to get chimps addicted to cigarettes.
1 YangtzeRiverChina 2019-07-16
Remember that this fucker tried to push the jealousy angle for a long time. Look at that shitshow of a body. Aren't you jealous?
1 Single_Action_Army 2019-07-16
He got the girth!!
1 wurmspurmtsssss 2019-07-16
Those beads are awful small for such a gaping asshole.
1 AnthonyKuhnmia 2019-07-16

1 of_lower_stock 2019-07-16
He truly is about a fat, old piece of shit.
1 JudgeMarilynMillian 2019-07-16

1 Separate_Possibility 2019-07-16
I thought he wasn't wearing Nike anymore?
1 TheDrewster1982 2019-07-16
Is that a " Call of duty" T Shirt? JESUS!!!. There are autistic 12 year old gamer nerds that wouldn't wear that Joe, you fucking 60 year old retard.
1 Skip4play 2019-07-16
Plus he doesnt even play the game. He just thinks it fits his wannabe GI Joe badass persona he tries to put out there..
1 NortonsGapingAsshole 2019-07-16
