That could be a good christmas gift.

Oh please. The article even says they're selling out of stores. Meaning women are buying them and wearing them. Obviously if women are wearing them why should nike apologize or discontinue them? Have you seen some of the garbage women wear? "Tell your boyfriend I said thanks", "My other shirt is at your boyfriend's house", "Spank me", "*****". Give me a break

Only in America people wear cheap t-shirts

Here's how it all went down.

Marketing Manager (MM): Anybody got any ideas for a new campaign?

Marketing exec 1 (ME1): Hmm. Olympics.

Marketing exec 2 (ME2): Yea.. I heard females won 2/3 of the gold medals..

ME1: Really?

ME2: Yea.

MM: Women? Gold? Ideas!

ME1: Gold diggers!

ME2: Gold digging!

MM: It will create tons of controversy.

ME1: That means it will make tons of sales.

ME2: Yea, it's the olympics, anyway. It'll only be popular for a week or so.

ME1: Yea, and we can create false scarcity saying we're pulling due to the controversy!

MM: But what about our reputation?

ME1: Are you serious? People are idiots. They'll forget about it in an hour!

MM: Run with it!

They picked up Jon Jones after his DWI fiasco. Idiots.
