Who thought making a thread that was already made was a good idea?

My Adidas
walk through concert doors
and roam all over coliseum floors
I stepped on stage, at Live Aid
All the people gave an applause that paid
And out of speakers I did speak
I wore my sneakers but I'm not a sneak
My Adidas cuts the sand of a foreign land
with mic in hand I cold took command
my Adidas and me both askin P
we make a good team my Adidas and me
we get around together, rhyme forever
and we won't be mad when worn in bad weather
My Adidas..
My Adidas..
My Adidas

These shoes are racist because they have shackles that prevent black people from stealing them off of your feet.

I admire your fashionable running shoes.
Drop them Nikes off yo' feet befo' I blast you, mothafucka.

I guess I should have made a thread for this when I posted it YESTERDAY

Saw this article this morning.

Silliness, IMO. While probably not the best idea to design these shoes.... I think Jesse Jackson should focus on more important issues instead of on shit like this.

Still, I guess I see the role that Jesse Jackson plays in situations....as the extremist 'left hand' to counterbalance the extremist 'right hand'.
