you are wrong because you think the quality of lebron's shoe is exponentially higher than that of the marbury's. simply not true
Re: Lebron just lost major points in my book (and got owned).
[QUOTE=KINGofTHEcourt]Do you know anything about Starbury's? [B][SIZE="3"]Marbury owns Starbury you clown,[/SIZE][/B] did you not make the connection, or do you not have a functioning brain. Stephon has had no knee problems this seaspn, so that leads me to think that this website you posted is full of ****. FInd me a few more articles saying the Starbury's are low quality, and then maybe i'll consider it.[/QUOTE]
ok this is not true...starbury owns him...just took me a second to find it

"This is the highest-performance shoe that you can make for any amount. The technology is state of the art and was designed for the way that Stephon plays," said Steve & Barry's co-founder and co-CEO [B][SIZE="3"]Barry Prevor[/SIZE][/B].

Re: Lebron just lost major points in my book (and got owned).
I'd try a pair of strabury;s, i like the white ones...my problem is the closest store that carries them is 45 miles away and with the price of gas the good deal becomes not so great as the 15 dollar shoes end up costing 40 bucks ...lol

no but you are...
[I]Marbury is the first celebrity [B][SIZE="3"]to sign [/SIZE][/B]with Steve & Barry's, a move that will put the retailer on the map. Already billed "the fastest growing retailer you never heard of" by Forbes, Steve & Barry's is sure to win over new fans. And other celebrities.[/I]
he may have some kind of royalty type of payment with that shoe but he owns nothing...

[QUOTE=-primetime-]president = CEO
when did that happen?[/QUOTE] lol since the beginning he has always been the CEO of the company it's his, Steve and Barry's (sound like an ice cream shop) are the exclusive distributor for the company... that's how they can keep the cost down is by only selling thier shoes to one outlet...
