We've speculated for days now if Nike would drop Armstrong. And many believed that it wasn't going to happen. Well, the unthinkable just happened. Nike is a huge billion dollar company. They weren't going to be swayed by Armstrong's false claims and PR tactics.
Some people on this forum have said that the tide is turning against Armstrong. Even Armstrong's most diehard Livestrong fans have turned on him. Just check Armstrong's Facebook page. He is getting hammered there. And no amount of his PR team deleting those posts or manipulating Google results or his lawyer's spin on things is changing public perception. Nike knows this. The tide is indeed turning.
Nike drops Armstrong.
