Worked with a number of US brand name sporting goods and footwear manufacturers over my career. Watched just about all of them get sold to money managers. It is ALWAYS the beginning of the end.

I knew the family at Dexter shoes quite well. They sold out to Buffet for close to a billion. Buffet's team ruined the company, I mean ruined it, inside of 3 years. The Alfons still have their money.

The world cries out for such: he is needed & needed badly- the man who can carry a message to Garcia
