yes because killing millions of Jews is exactly the same as enforcing the terms of the contract.
No wonder people think millennials are bozos
It's not just the contract , Captain Kangaroo.

So where is it equivalent to killing millions Jews and starting a World War?

@letsrundotcom has 28k followers on twitter.

For every single twitter follower of lrc, Nike has 218.
Fortunately, the 218:1 ratio need not come into play, since the followers of Nike and letsrundotcom are not competing directly with one another. 28k is enough to start a quick movement, or 14k, or 7k . . .

I'm not buying anymore Nike crap if this thing continues.
There are a lot of legitimate complaints about how Nike is handling this, but I can't understand the logic of those who seem to object in principle to Nike's basic action (not the timing or handling to it). It's called protecting your brand and contractual agreements now and in the future.

The difference is that I'd guess a very large majority of people who follow Nike are fans of the brand.
LRC followers are fans of the site as well, but that in no way means they all have the same opinion about who is in the right with regards to Nike v. Berian.
I follow both Nike and LRC on Twitter. I side with Nike on this issue, and I will continue to wear their products.
I'd guess that out of the 28K who follow LetsRun, 50% know who Berian is. Of that, another 50% are probably indifferent about the case. Of the remaining 7000, maybe 2000 hate Nike enough to not buy their stuff. They most likely never have for a while now.
So Nike stands to lose about..... $0 as a result of this media attention.

They might even gain from it. I am going to purchase extra Nike stuff to make up for the clowns protesting the brand.

Yes, good on you. Let's stand up for these poor multinationals that get a bad wrap and monopolise the market through unscrupulous practices.

I ought to smash your face in with a pair of Nike Zooms with 15mm spikes in for that statement.

Right now he is potentially threatened with legal shit if he runs in NB gear, and MAYBE threatened with legal shit by NB if he runs in Nike, but I doubt it.
He should run in an all white suit. If I was NB I'd encourage it on this one occasion. It's priceless publicity for them to be the "good guys" here and he'd stand out by a mile visually.
A bit lame if he trails in last after all the stress though. Mentally, IMHO he needs to get a bit like Mekhissi-Benabbad after that DQ, and run the 800 on pure hate.
If Nike wins you'll see letsrunners all over America start playing the knock-out game on every jogger who wears Nike shoes.
We warned you, Nike.
I find that to be very unlikely.

+1. He signed the initial contract. He had to have known Nike was a crappy company before, but he did it anyway.
