I suppose this was bound to happen:

Nike suspends endorsement deal with Vick
Move follows Reebok's decision to suspend sales of quarterback’s jerseys

Nike Inc. said Friday it suspended its contract with Atlanta Falcons quarterback Michael Vick and will pull goods with his name off the shelves at stores the company owns.

In a statement Friday, the company said it had not terminated the contract, as animal-rights activists had urged the company to do after Vick was accused of federal dogfighting charges.

“Nike has suspended Michael Vick’s contract without pay, and will not sell any more Michael Vick product at Nike owned retail at this time,” the company said.

3. Yet Nike has no problems by letting little children in Philipinian sweatshops produce those goods.
