I wish I had been a Nike fan, or even occasional consumer of Nike products, so I could cut them off financially after this stunt. As it stands now, I don't think that I have purchased anything from Nike in over twenty, perhaps 30 years, aside from the occasional sale or impulse purchase.

What dusts my doilies in this whole NFL - Kaepernick affair is years ago the NFL excoriated Rush Limbaugh when he commented on the radio that he was thinking about purchasing a stake in an NFL team. The NFL, the league, the owners, everyone unanimously rose up and said "no rush!" Oh not because of his politics, per se, but just that he is political at all, and he will bring bad press. Fast forward 10 years or so and what do we have? Kaepernick and the NFL going completely and 100% political. Hypocrisy.

So like the Nike situation, I have been unable to really boycott the NFL because my support of the NFL went out the window for the most part, when they pulled the Limbaugh stunt 10 years ago.
