    Sauk Center MN, a man fleeing from the police lost control and hit a house fled into the house and found a cross bow and shot a police officer with it. Hit him in the arm and in return he was shot multiple times. It was actually a cross bow and a cross bow is not considered a bow in Minnesota except for the handicapped and elderly. Shoddy reporting.

    Sota, definitely not blaming the trump administration. The problem with FS/blm management goes back a long, long way.
    My best buddy was up there filling pumpkins with the water tender yesterday. He has some eye opening stories on the feds command of this. :(

    Screenshots of the Fs/Usda tweets when these fires could have easily have been extinguished. Half acre, for crying out loud.

    Last pic was the fire around 9-10 pm last night. It grew all night even though the wind died. Too dry.

    Today is forecast to be hot and windy.

    Here you go, Mexico and Canada make up around 10% to 15% of North America when I worked at nike, so lets make it 15% for those two. Will error on the high side.

    That means 35% of nikes sales come from USA, I'll round up

    USA 35%
    Canada Mexico 15%
    Europe 5%
    China 11%
    Japan 3%
    All Other 20%

    The Majority of their sales comes from USA, it's by far their largest Market.

    You can play the definition the word either way, below is part of definition, there is also way you described it to have +50%, which is why I should have just ended it.

    We can slice and dice it many ways, slice call it whatever you want.

    Yep a let burn and monitor fire in the BWCA blew up against the calculations of the FS and resulted in the only fire in Minnesota where fire shelters were deployed. Also I didn't think you were blaming Trump but these days you have to include that disclaimer to nip it from others.

    From everywhere that's NOT the USA Germ....good god man...do you do math? Your own numbers (which btw yours don't actually add up to 100%): 35% USA....65% everywhere else.

    Not domestically, outside the US is the largest market share.

    We are not comparing the US to every where here(I am not), we are asking the question is Nike going to try and sell less in the largest market, which is the USA. It's not the USA vs the world here. That was the premise of the post(they way I took it)

    Second I put other as 20% that is actually Western Europe and other is 14%(rounded up), which I left out. Because it was just an example, good god man relax.

    That is not correct , Nike has 7 markets, not 2.
