Well done. I thought it was obviously aimed at the 15-17 year old crowd, based on the clips they chose and the words from Kaepernick.

Right wingers on all the sports sites predictably hated it. I saw them touting College of the Ozarks for removing the swoosh from their Nike gear. I'm sure Nike is second guessing, if College of the Ozarks is trending away.
