F*ck Chucks!

Unless you've been living under a rock I'm sure you've heard of the monster that is football player Michael Vick.Sure he may have done his time but that doesn't forgive his sins.Just like I wouldn't trust my children to be babysat by someone that once served time for a sex crime,I CERTAINLY wouldn't trust Vick with my dogs.Nor can I support a company that holds this man as a hero.

You'll remember back when the story broke of the horrible animal abuse those pit bulls suffered through Nike dropped him as a spokesperson.Nike has since flip flopped and has signed a new deal with him!At first I thought "I don't own Nike's so I can't hit them where it hurts."My friend Michael informed me that yes,actually I can because Nike owns Converse.I love my Chucks but I love animals more and I can NOT look at myself in the mirror knowing that my money is supporting a company that would use such a disgusting human being to represent them.I am boycotting Chuck Taylor sneakers and I hope you will be too.Here is a good blog post about it that you can read:Nike Flip Flop

Fellow readers I hope you will join me in saying "NO" to Nike,BET and Subway for all playing a part in allowing this chump to line his pockets so thick after the inhumane things he has done.Nike,the ball is in your court now.I have worn Chucks for years but have thrown mine in the trash and I will not purchase a new pair until you drop this scumbag and apologize for this HUGE error in judgment.I hate spineless people and I will not do business with a spineless company.Should have stuck with your original stance of dropping him and NOT picking him back up because for what its worth it DEFINITELY cost you MY dollar.
