"Nike" under pressure to drop Manny Pacquiao.

You might've seen my previous posting about it.  Mr Pacquiao is being assaulted by the leftie prog mob for remarks he allegedly made when he allegedly quoted Leviticus. 

There's just one slight problem.  The writer of that article, Granville Ampong, did the honourable thing and admitted (albeit under pressure) that he added that part.  For reference, simply follow the link in my previous posting.

"The Grove" (Yes, the one in LA) banned Mr Pacquiao for life ... without bothering to do the least bit of due diligence. 

Here's my question:  Will Nike do the honourable thing and stand up to the prog mob who are lying and distorting the facts? 

Or will they follow "The Grove's" cowardly lead and kowtow to those with an agenda, those who are willing to lie and distort the facts.

Sadly, my money says that Nike will follow "The Grove's" cowardly and dishonourable lead.

If Rick Caruso of "The Grove" (Twitter: @RickCarusoLA) had any personal honour he would immediately:

1) Get his facts straight and do the basic due diligence
2) Apologize to Mr Pacquaio (via Twitter since the smear was made via Twitter)

or, failing the first two

commit seppuku(*) (Japanese ritual suicide, usually by disembowelment.)

Of course, he'll probably do nothing.  And that's sad.

(*) - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seppuku

" Part of the samurai bushido honor code, seppuku was either used voluntarily by samurai to die with honor rather than fall into the hands of their enemies (and likely suffer torture), or as a form of capital punishment for samurai who had committed serious offenses, or performed for other reasons that had brought shame to them.
