Now, here for a really interesting bit, as I walked through my local grocery store above the beer cooler I spied LA. What he was doing there is interesting. He is now a recognizable advertisement  icon in the US and can sell Tennis shoes or sofas or even cars, just like all the football & baseball jocks. LA has made our sport accesible to everyone in the US. Cool Right? What do you think?
