Nike's in-your-face Hyperdunk ads rejected

Following up on Gianatasio's post not for the easily offended … Nike has pulled three ads for Hyperdunk Basketball shoes amid criticism that they are homophobic. The print ads, part of a larger campaign by Wieden + Kennedy, have images of basketball players slam-dunking over other players in a way that brings the dunker’s crotch into the personal space of the other player’s face. In other words, their junk is all up on some dude’s mouth.
