So if Nike sales were already low...and this year they rose 14% on Labor Day 2018 over Labor Day 2017 (17% Labor Day rise last year, 31% this year)...then it just means they did a little bit better in low sales.

I'd wonder about the actual numbers compared to the past (before the economy crashed and then stagnated for 8 years). My guess would be that they are still super-low.

They are betting that being "edgy" by using Kapernick will pay off and get them back to being "cool" again.
Might work. We'll see.
