This is a business that without product you are nothing?the ultimate decision is made by 15 year old boys who wander into a Foot Locker?or a finish line.

Something like this can never be construed as good news. Nike is out there winning the battles and winning the wars, but who cares? It's not providing the robust growth we'd all like to see.

Consumers have a strong reason to procrastinate. There will be more and more deals and bargains, and everybody knows it.

When we get home, that's when the ultimate decision will be made.

I played with the big boys and this is the result - sometimes you go into a business and the upside potential is so great that you close your eyes and look the other way. I looked the other way and the other way has come back to smack me.

Everybody was happy and excited to come up here and repeat as champions. The boys really meant business once we got up there; we didn't have to drag them out of the hotel pool or even set a bed time, they just did it themselves.
