The new G.I. Joe movie might suck, but the sneakers look decent. Just like the Transformers 2 Sneakers, the G.I. Joe sneakers are limited edition Nikes with different paint jobs. A unique collectors item that is priced at $160 a pair. Why get these when you can get the new LeBron VII's for the same price? [RMK]
New season, new shoes. The Nike Air Max LeBron VII will be available on October 24th for $160. They look so much better than the previous LeBrons.
Here's some jargon to convince you that these shoes are advanced by technology:
It features a new custom Max 360 Air sole with 80 percent more air than the previous full-length unit, strategically contoured with a thinner forefoot and deeper heel to put the cushioning where it's needed most. For even more comfort and stability, it features Nike Flywire tensile fiber technology, a seamless integrated bootie, various visual hints to LeBron all over, and a full-grain leather upper with patent leather detailing throughout.

Nike and Hasbro have combined forces to come out with a collection of cool kicks. The shoes don't transform but look cool. They come in three styles, Soundwave, Megatron and Bumblebee.
Considering they are over $100 bucks, they're not really worth it, but are probably a good collector's item. They are really just normal Nike's with a color remix. [Kix in the City] The sole looks pretty cool too.
T-Mobile has decided to drop Sir Charles from their ads after his DUI arrest. A T-Mobile spokesman said, "Given the recent developments, for the time being, we've replaced TV ads featuring Mr. Barkley with more general-market advertising. As he works through his personal matters, we will evaluate where to go from here."
I wonder if things would have been different had he not mentioned the fact that he was just looking to get some (apparently) great oral sex.
The victim here will be Dwayne Wade (Barkley's T-Mobile co-star). He's going to have to do these ads on his own now. Hey, maybe Kenny Smith can fill in for a few spots. He already has some experience doing those Nike Hyper-Dunk shoe ads. [TMZ]
