Thanks for the response.
I got ticked b/c I sent them a letter recommending the sports line back in
97 or 98, they said they could not take my suggestion.  Now, they have a

Don't get me wrong, I'm also sure other people said sports,
but the fact that they said they couldn't use it
then used it isn't really fair.
They should've at least said 'We'll take it into consideration'
so I don't get surprised when they use my idea.

become popular - and lots of money would be asked for that really isn't
deserved.  After all, I only said, "give me some cowboys"
