Nike releases Hypercock-in-face ads… Homophobic?

Published by houroc under Basketball

That aint right

Ok so here are the new Nike Hyperdunk ads that you may see in the streets of NYC or LA right now. Obviously the ads depict guys getting posterized in a not so lovely way.

These ads have started a bit of a controversy.  On WK and Gawker people are crying out that these pics are homophobic.  I guess it’s because it shows the guys who are being posterized, in a crappy position.

I really don’t think they’re that bad though.  I think people need to lighten up and just be happy that they aren’t the dude in the red right now.

What do you guys think?  Are these pics homophobic?
