    That. Was. The. Point.

    Also, generally, and I'll try to type slowly for you here: When people post on a message board thread, it's to express their opinion. So if I said "I really liked that blog post," would you really feel the need to say "Why did we need to know you liked it?"

    I mean, it's kind of what we do here, yes?

    I always thought that Fred Perry was more known for his sport shirts than his shoes. The gold standard for tennis shoes are the Stan Smith's. I always thought the Fred Perry shoes were a bit on the effete side.

    One little known fact about Fred Perry was that he invented the sweat band.

    Because in what I would venture is the target market for the book, it's common knowledge.

    The thread title is the last great example of false advertising.
