Does Nike Hate Gays? Or Do Gays Hate Basketball?
gawker.com — Nike's new ad campaign for its Hyperdunk shoes features a series of pictures of basketball players getting dunked on in what's considered the worst way possible: the dunker dangling off the rim, his balls dangling in the face of the man being dunk-ee.

- PolishLogic, on 07/23/2008, -3/+10Possibly the dumbest story I've read all month.
- IMA_Sellout, on 07/23/2008, -4/+4This is just stupid. There's no homophobic sentiments here. Just a bunch of people with PC-itis who need a ***** slap.
PAGING DOCTOR LEARY! - hiteshsharma, on 07/23/2008, -1/+5Come on.. Its just an Ad.

- puppycoloda, on 07/23/2008, -4/+3I don't like the ads either but lets not make sweeping generalizations people.
- lucy22, on 07/23/2008, -0/+3interesting title.
- Hetman, on 07/23/2008, -2/+3The biggest misconception in America today is that there are no Gay men in proffesional sports. Just the sheer amount of men in proffesional sports, almost gurantee's that there are some. Same can be said with the music industry. I am looking at you kenya west.
- ma6ic4l, on 07/23/2008, -1/+6Even gay hoopsters don't want to get balls in the face dunked on. Nothing to see here. Move along.
- whataboutdave, on 07/23/2008, -3/+1How many gay people do you know to buy basketball shoes?
Yeah, that's what I thought. - Divic, on 07/24/2008, -0/+1This is the worst story I've seen on Digg in quite some time. Some people are so oversensitive. First off, something tells me "gays" as the title calls them do not want a man running as fast as they can, getting a ton of air and slamming the basketball down only to have their sweaty, smelly, stinky ass balls go in your face. Everyone likes hygiene. Secondly, whoever wrote this article should get their internet privileges taken away. Dumbasses
