Classless Nike exec uses Rose injury as marketing opp

[Litany]

This dude better not have a job come Monday. His name is Jason Petrie. Hope enough people call for Nike to fire him.

@sevenzro1: You got one guy only getting stronger, and one guy breaking down before our very eyes. You chose poorly Pooh... #shouldasignedwithNIKE #GWS

@sevenzro1: I speak my mind. You don't like it, don't follow! Just my observations!

@sevenzro1: Just to set the record straight- if you ain't with me you against me, and if that's the case I don't give a F about you! #FACTS #hateit4u

Woj reacted to this recently.

@WojYahooNBA: Does this Nike jackass have a job Monday? RT @YahooBDL: Nike designer: Injured D-Rose, an adidas man, 'chose poorly.' http://t.co/S75T3wd9

pretty dumb by him , it's an ACL tear, if say rose sprained his ankle again then i wouldnt mind him saying that because an ankle sprain isn't extreme but an ACL injury is no joke , pretty bad on his part

It is just sad and Karma will come back bite Nike hard. It is also funny to hear that consider Step Curry sprain his ankle like 6 times this season when he wear Nike shoes.

Nah he wont get fired he will get a slap on the wrist. He is the main designer behind the lebron shoes line up which is like the most popular basketball shoe behind jordans.

But I do have a feeling karma will get to nike.

if karma does come back to him, good luck to lebron, since Jason Petrie designs lebron's sneakers.

Y'all take sh#t too serious! Never want to see anyone get hurt- I hope DRose comes back stronger than ever, he's too good...

Why did you leave this one out?
He probably just said it because he got a lot of hate tweets tho. That seems like the excuse everyone makes when they say something stupid on twitter.

What a dumb way to get fired. What was he thinking?

Because one reasonable tweet gets massively outweighed by the ignorant one that started it and the ridiculous 4 or 5 that followed it.

I can't believe Nike would let a PR nightmare like this clown have access to social media as a representative of their brand. Very stupid.

he brings in too much money with the lebron line to get fired.

It's obviously not intelligence.

[blocks]

Dumb comments...but firing the guy? Damn we are so pathetically sensitive.

[HotRocks34]

This guy is a joke.

Trying to use a serious injury as "you should have signed with us" is about as classless as it gets.

Twitter, where attention whores happen
