| Pocketbook Progress. It should only happen to Nike. Let it be so. - Quote :
- The NFL’s opening Thursday night game got disappointing TV ratings for a league that is battling perceptions of rapidly declining popularity.
NBC announced a 13.4 overnight rating for the Super Bowl champion Eagles’ last-second win over the Falcons. That was way down from the 14.6 for Chiefs-Patriots last year, which itself was way down from a 16.5 for Panthers-Broncos the year before, which itself was way down from a 17.7 for Steelers-Patriots the year before that.

- I returned a pair of Nike shoes yesterday for a refund, and the clerk asked me what was wrong with them. I told her they hurt my feet when I stood up for the national anthem.
For the record, I've never owned a pair of Nike's, or Adidas, or any other trendy brand of sneakers. Did wear KEDS as a youngster growing up though. !! FOXTROT JULIET BRAVO !! | |

| Jr did a great job . I'm old school and never did go for the endorsement stuff . Even if I like the endorser (in this case I absolutely don't) I won't spend those hard earned dollars on such stuff. Like Mike, I ordered a pair of $14.95 chinese shoes .I just move my liners over from the pair that is literally coming unsoled and I'm good to go. Like Researcher, Back in '73, I bad wanted a pair of those little simple track shoes when I was in the seventh grade- you know the thin bottomed, cloth ones with 3 or 4 vertical stripes on the sides? They weren't expensive but even that was too much.. Mama and Daddy made it work out though and I did get a pair for school. God gave me loving, hard working parents. I bet this feller didn't haul scrap iron to buy extra things and have his hands crack open and bleed from working in the cold.. By the way on the close up of that Nike feller, unless they fixed it, the reflections in his eyes look like slits...

HA! When you were in the 7th grade I was already in the Navy. Researcher's KEDS were all heavy canvas and rubber. You had a choice between low cut and high tops. This was back in my grade schrool days. 1958 - 1963-ish. I liked the high tops best and the pictures are just like what I wore exactly. The blue and red racing stripes were the bomb back then. They were cheap and they covered my feet. Vintage 1960's high tops Vintage 1960's low tops - WOW colors - I never had anything but black and white. !! FOXTROT JULIET BRAVO !! | |

| Well . . . . she DID say "any other newsy reports!" Besides, I couldn't think of anyplace else to put it. Hey, it's kinda like when the odometer on your car turns over to 100,000. Something to celebrate, right! OK, party is over. Back to some real work. !! FOXTROT JULIET BRAVO !! | |

| That really is Huge! I'm sure everyone realizes you've carried the forum ever since you took on Admin. It's a really big commitment and a lot of work every single day. It wouldn't be here if you didn't do all that you do. And you continue to do a great job that none of the rest of us could do. So THANKS and MORE THANKS! In the words of our departed friend and brother David Flynn, May You Live Forever! I want to know the thoughts of God. Everything else is just details.
