Nike pulls Hyperdunk ads

Nike on Friday said they would pull their three Hyperdunk ads due to criticisms that they were homophobic.

This is just stupid, people need to grow up. The one ad had the crotch of a dunking player in the face of a defender as he got dunked on and the ad says "That Ain't Right."

That's just basketball slang for a guy getting owned on the court. How much time and money have been wasted over all this? In all honesty, if I saw something that I remotely thought was offensive to a group of people, I'd be the first to say....well, "that ain't right." But it's not. People are over-reacting.

Nike says the ads were "based purely upon a common insight from within the game of basketball -- the athletic feat of dunking on the opposition, and is not intended to be offensive."
