OutKick founder Clay Travis asked Gaines if she had been approached by Nike for an endorsement deal of her own. That would seem fitting since, as Travis noted, Nike called Mulvaney “brave,” and, in light of recent events, Gaines has shown she possesses that trait.

But alas, Nike has not reached out.

“Oh, goodness no,” Gaines said with a laugh. “And I don’t anticipate that happening. I don’t know if they can understand the mockery (Mulvaney’s deal) makes of women, especially the video of Dylan — I guess portraying what he thinks women look like when we work out — doing jumping jacks and doing different things.

“That is so incredibly degrading, and for Nike to take this stance, they can forget taking my money. And I’ve talked to a lot of female athletes who agree with exactly everything I just said.”

[This to me is worse than the Bud Light issue. That’s more silly than offensive. What Nike did in their Mulvaney endorsement was truly erase women from women’s sport and rob a legit female athlete of an opportunity to excel and shine just so Mulvaney could “girlface” on their behalf. — Ed]
