Screw Nike

Just read some comments of Nike executives to a shareholders' meeting. A lot of space given to the company's tight relationship to China market. Well you can't have such a relationship without having a close relationship with Chinese Communist Party CCP). I suggest that you can't take a crap in China without CCP's okay. I urge the WVU Athletic Department to sever relationship with Nike as soon as possible. Certainly DON'T renew the present contract. Get the lawyers to see if there's a way to break the present one. I know that WVU makes a lot of money from NIKE but company's close relationship with China and thus CCP is reason enough to end that relationship. Other athletic companies will pay us also - maybe not as much but principle has to come to the fore here. Increase ticket prices but get as far away from Nike as soon as possible. I suggest Mountaineer fans who have Nike gear to cover or blot out the swoosh.

Right. I'll ditch my Nike gear when the Trump Organization and Donnie's plastic daughter and son in law divest their Chinese interests and the Chinese patents daddy secured for them.

I'm always amused by all of the Trump sycophants screaming about China when nearly a quarter of his assets are tied up there. China sucks, but unless folks here are willing to pay a lot more for goods or take a long, hard look at which companies their 401K's mutual funds are invested in they need to give it a rest.

Do you work for the 50 cent army ? Yes Trump should have been harder on the CCP. No we shouldn't give it a rest. They are in a cold war with us that have fought it much smarter than we have. It's past time to decouple from them and stop allowing our politicians and businesses to sell out to a communist regime.

Amusing how you direct your attention to all the Trump Sycophants. Frankly, not sure who those people are, and I am certainly not one, but maybe you should take your head out of the sand on multiple fronts and recognize what is going on with China regardless of your political allegiances. The rest of Asia understands.

When you go through your house -- or trailer -- and throw out or give away anything made or sourced in China, then you can talk.

When you call out the right AND the left for selling us out to China, then you can talk.

I'm 61 years old and I sincerely hope I never turn into a bitter, old bitchfest clown like you. If it's not China and Nike, it's ESPN+, WVU ticket prices or the media. What a miserable existence.

It must suck to be you. It must suck even more to be around you. Prayers up for everyone in your immediate family.

Are you the kind of ******* that thinks people who in in trailers are deplorable and not worthy of an opinion? I don’t think that. Since you brought it up I live in a 4000 sqft home you probably couldn't afford to heat or cool. I go out of the way not to buy cheap **** made by communist slave labor.

I have called out the right and left for selling out to the CCP. Try to keep up.

I'm not bitter dumbass I'm also not regurgitating CCP propaganda like you.

I don't hang out with CCP traitors so I don't see you and me ever hanging out. Moron.

Why so bitter all the time anyway? Is this really how you want to spend your twilight years?
