"In case you haven't heard, sneakers are serious business these days and nobody is as picky about their kicks as New Yorkers." You have got to be kidding me. That is one of the most contrived sentences ever written. This piece is as "street" as the graffiti mural episode of the Apprentice.</p> http://www.gothamist.com/2005/03/05/gothamist_street_beat_fly_shoes.php#comment-44340 http://www.gothamist.com/2005/03/05/gothamist_street_beat_fly_shoes.php#comment-44340 Comments Sat, 05 Mar 2005 13:35:41 -0500 <p>There is just too much wrong with this story. First of all, must you start a style and shopping section? And why refer to it as a "street coverage beat"? Is that what the "street" is about? Nikes? Maybe so, if that's what people are rioting over these days. What is up with this whole piece? Reppin' New York? "Bad Boy" Nike? You're all joking, right? I just have no sense of humor and you're joking. Please be joking.</p>
