Nike: (to Vick).. No shoe for YOU!

[SoCalDem]

good for them..

[Virginia Dare]

1. They dropped him?

good for them..:applause:

[SoCalDem]

3. not completely (yet).. but they scrapped the shoe deal

and cancelled the commercials that were supposed to promote it.

[Virginia Dare]

7. I was afraid of that..

he'll probably still get the money though..:-(

[NaturalHigh]

15. I doubt if he'll get the money.

I'm sure his contract has a morals clause. Getting arrested for a felony involving dog fighting undoubtedly violates that clause.

2. Wow, good for Nike

if this is true.

[soothsayer]

4. indeed!

[Neshanic]

5. Good for them!

6. Nike...

are they still using third world sweatshops?

[Bassic]

10. 'Course they are.

They all are.

[gatorboy]

11. Of course. Nike didn't just get their Tin Man heart.

They're worried about the publicity.

12. Michael Vick: I am not renewing my contract with Nike, re: sweatshops

Crowd: Hurray for Michael Vick!

[judaspriestess]

16. that indeed would be a good day

but of course michael vick doesn't care about what happens to people in sweatshops or anything else for that matter.

14. Replace "Nike" with "NFL" and say "suspended from playing".

The perfect NFL response, but again, it's the NFL.

[Vilis Veritas]

13. Cool...

They still employ little kids to do the detail work.

Kind of like scraping the bird shit off the windshield of a Bush's limo, it does nothing to hide the asshole inside.

[RavensChick]

17. Word!
