A Good Friday Read.
Sounds good but we need to get around the 3 years in business reqiurement that the NFL has on its list. I'm not sure they are going to break any policies in place. We must simply do our time and the NFL licencing deal will come down the road aways. At least we have plenty in the pipeline for now IMO..

Tooling Costs. We talked about FDNY and so forth. The cost of tooling must be figured into the market potential. I am sure it has been looked at or is being researched by EI. Nice thought...lol
Cocktails? did you say Cocktails? Make mine a double....lol

Farewell to Troy...

Percival officially retires as an Angel
Closer spent 10 years as a Halo, earning 316 saves with Anaheim
By Lyle Spencer / MLB.com
ANAHEIM -- Wearing his No. 40 Angels jersey and his emotions on his sleeves, Troy Percival formally retired from Major League Baseball on Monday after signing a Minor League Angels contract.
"I never left the Angels organization, in my heart," Percival said, who signed with Detroit after the 2004 season, his 10th in Anaheim, and spent one season with the Tigers before an injury to his right forearm in July 2005 forced him to the sidelines all of last season.
The Angels' all-time saves leader, Percival, 37, was given the distinction of throwing out the ceremonial first pitch before former teammate John Lackey took the ball in earnest against Texas at Angel Stadium.
With Bob Seger's "Still the Same" blasting over the PA system and the Angel Stadium crowd and cheering, Percival ran in from the bullpen, took the mound and threw a classic fastball to catcher Jose Molina, ushering in the new season. Percival got the final out in the 2002 World Series, closing Game 7 for the franchise's first championship.
Percival couldn't resist a few laugh-inducing verbal jabs as he went through the process of signing the contract alongside Bill Stoneman, the club's vice president and general manager, and communications vice-president Tim Mead.
"I need my agent -- I know he can squeeze two days out of you," Percival said, grinning. "Do I get released now? I've never been released."
A no-nonsense performer on the mound who brought the heat from start to finish in his illustrious career, Percival alluded to the Angels' 2002 World Series championship and an American League playoff triumph over the New York Yankees as crowning achievements in his career.
Drafted and signed in 1990 out of UC Riverside, where he'd been a catcher, Percival began his Major League career in 1995. He retires with 324 career saves, tying him with the Mets' Billy Wagner for 11th on the all-time list. He appeared in 605 games for the Angels and Tigers.
All but eight of those 324 saves came while he wore an Angels uniform, with many of his best memories coming during the magical 2002 ride to the World Series championship.
He got the final out in each of the Angels' three series-clinching victories, against the Yankees, Minnesota Twins and San Francisco Giants, tying a postseason record with seven saves in as many opportunities.
"Obviously, Game 7 of the World Series [against the Giants] was huge from an organizational standpoint," Percival said. "I was real proud we beat up the Yankees [in the ALDS] after we were given no chance."
His career high for saves in a season came in 1998 when he produced 42, but his finest overall season was 2002. He was 4-1 with 40 saves and a 1.92 ERA.
Percival, employed by the Angels as a special assignment pitching instructor, "always wanted the ball with the game on the line," manager Mike Scioscia said. "Saving Game 6 and Game 7 of the World Series ... that's quite an accomplishment."
His willingness to extend himself for the cause created physical hardships at times for Percival, but it also endeared him to teammates, who recognized his toughness under fire in making him an unquestioned team leader.
That passion for the game also made Percival a fan favorite in Southern California.
"This club has always embraced me and my family," he said. "I'm honored to retire as an Angel."
Stoneman said it was "very appropriate" for the rugged reliever to depart in this fashion, adding, "Troy Percival has been an integral part of the success and tradition of Angels baseball for many years."
A four-time All-Star, Percival, his wife, Michelle, and their children, Cole and Avery, live in Riverside.
Percival said he's having a ball managing a Little League team now and said he had a "fantastic time" in Spring Training with the Angels.
He delights in watching the development of former teammates such as Lackey, Scot Shields and Francisco Rodriguez, how they've evolved as professionals, and said he'd like to think he had something to do with that.
What he finds most gratifying now is showing youngsters the way it's done.
"Big league camp was fun, but I spent enough time there for 16, 17 years," he said. "I really enjoyed Minor League camp."
Beyond teaching mechanics, Percival stressed "the mentality of being a big leaguer -- how you act, how you treat people" in his talks with Angels prospects. That's something he'll continue pursuing in his role as roving instructor.
"I really relish this organization, the way they treat players," Percival said. "I'm glad to be back. I didn't burn any bridges."
He was too busy building them.
Good job. They do good work here, they adopted me about 6 months ago here. lol to Super and the MODs and lurker/FTD and 5 Star and MKA and dart and so many others. This group has better tempo than most other threads including other sites. The best I have known is on proboards for Nevada Mining, its orginally how I found out about IHUB.
Since then I have had 5 family members and 1 collegue buy ETIM shares. Only one other family member belongs to IHUB (basser1) who got in last October and have been on board ever since. We are now for sure in the multi-million share holder club....thanks to some smart trading and good timing...best to ya ! Booya ! ETIM !
Just got in...
Nice close !
exactly !

You know PENNYLAND ! Then next week we bounce around the 70/80 slow steady climb and of course the majority holding steady, cause we beleive this stock to be undervalued still..Way undervalued..IMO they are holding back the horses in the gate and the pressure on the MM's is growing cause we won't let go of our shares...Thats why the resistance points are 95/015/02...
Here are some cool International stats for baseball fans...35 countries represented in MLB !!
04/03/2007 2:50 PM ET
Record 246 players born outside the U.S.
A record high total of 246 players on Opening Day rosters and disabled lists were born outside the 50 United States, surpassing the previous high of 242 players set in 2005, it was announced today.
Overall, 29.0 percent of the 849 players (750 active 25-man roster players, 99 disabled or restricted players) on April 2 rosters were born outside the 50 United States, representing 15 different countries and territories. The 2007 figure is second to the 2005 record high of 29.2 percent (242 out of 829 players). The Dominican Republic, with 98 players (up from 85 in 2006), produced the most Major Leaguers born outside the U.S., while Venezuela had the next highest total with 51 players (up from 43 in 2006) and Puerto Rico follows with 28. Players from Japan increased to 13, up from nine in 2006.
Among the Major League Clubs, the New York Mets have the most foreign-born players with 15 for the second consecutive season, followed by the New York Yankees (13) and Boston Red Sox, Minnesota Twins and Seattle Mariners, each with 12. The Colorado Rockies have players born in seven different countries or territories outside the 50 United States (Canada, the Dominican Republic, Japan, Korea, Mexico, Panama and Venezuela), which is high among Major League Clubs.
Additionally, 3,098 of the 6,701 minor league players under contract in 2007 - 46.2 percent - were born outside the United States, compared to 45.1 percent in 2006. Minor leaguers hailed from 35 different countries and territories.
yep and the 200k buy at the ask was nice to see.
"an LA based company"
You betchya ! a large piece to the puzzle.
It showed 665300 for a minute then changed to 333...LOL Little delayed reaction..

Check this out...
OT: I was originally able to buy ETIM Stock last year because of a run up on my NMCX stock. One always zigged while the other zagged (price wise) well for the first time their PPS is the same (.0075). If you know the history of the other company you would be amazed. Different sector, different company, different revs etc... Just wild to see.
lmao

lol
Yes, we've been looking at this site. Good find, nice to see again.
When I started reading about MLB back in October, my first buy was at .0016 and it ran that week to .009. It was short lived unlike today's trading levels. We have overcome a huge hurdle. What a thrill of a ride its been. We really have only just begun..
lol
ikno.
This sounds more like reality. Its like a fine wine. It takes a little time. NASDAQ is a couple of years away. Remember how long it takes for a 10SB filing? the Q and A period with the SEC alone takes a few months..
good post MKA !
the I box is on this page right above the posts
How come Shane never posts a reply or ever answer's a question and appears to have no one on one communication. They are all outbound post's. Its almost as if Shane is a machine or something, he completely ignores everyone here and just spits out comments that imo have no substance or value as it relates to this stock in terms of contributing information or is supportive of this company. Pardon me if I am off base here....
last size, 3076 ? what kind of buy is that?
Can ya feel the pressure? lol
No Soup For You !!!

Mets, Cards familiar foes as '07 begins
Elite NL clubs ready to pick up where classic NLCS left off
By Marty Noble / MLB.com
Albert Pujols and Jose Reyes will once again renew one of baseball's best rivalries. (Chris Carlson/AP)
The Mets have spent the last 6 1/2 weeks on the east coast of Florida -- bleachin' and teachin', bussin' and cussin,' runnin' and funnin' -- and ignoring Jimmy Rollins when they could have been obsessing about the Cardinals instead. Who could have blamed them if they had turned -- excuse the expression -- redbird red with a severe case of pennant envy by now?
The way the Mets saw it, the team from St. Louis was in their place when it participated in and won the 2006 World Series. And since then, the Boys from Busch have been in the Mets' face, playing them four times in exhibition games.
Of course, the games meant nothing except to the misguided who believe success in March can counterbalance October disappointment. Still, on four occasions, the Mets were subjected to the introduction of those names -- Spiezio, Taguchi, Molina and Wainwright, the men who pulled the plug on them. And on their four visits to Jupiter -- they played the Marlins there, too, with St. Louis' banner conspicuously displayed -- they saw the Cardinals identified as World Series champions in letters larger than Clydesdales.
The Mets could have seethed, or snapped. Instead they placed blame where it belonged -- on their own uniforms -- and went about the business of preparing for their first game of 2007 against the ... well, against the very same team they played last.
That schedule-maker, what a kidder! Or perhaps, what a sadist! What a picked-up-where-they-left-off thing to do!
The opponents in the final game of the 2006 National League season meet again in the first game of the 2007 National League season, 164 days, one World Series and many World Series rings later. It's Mets at Cardinals on Sunday night at 8:10 p.m. ET. ESPN couldn't have asked for more.
And it didn't ask for this. Even before the Mets clinched the National League East championship, before the Cardinals made their way into the Elite Eight, the schedule was established. So it wasn't sadism, it was clairvoyance.
And now it's baseball, back for another year, back to fill a spring, summer and fall. It's back to grab you and hold you, delight and frustrate you, amaze and occupy you. Mets at Cardinals, at Busch, the site of the last pitch of the '06 season. All the pomp and circumstance. All that red in the stands.
Chris Carpenter will throw the first of the zillion pitches that will be watched, charted, analyzed, swung at, missed, taken, called, hit, tipped, topped, fouled off, popped up, lined, lofted, belted, bunted, grounded, dragged, crushed, stroked, smoked, slammed, pulled, sat on, spat on and inside-outed.
The first one will get to you. Everyone's a fan come Sunday night. Even the most grizzled guy will feel it. Julio Franco experienced his first big-league moment 25 years ago. He's already moved by the prospect of another.
"Are you kidding? I can't wait to get started," the Mets' and the game's senior citizen says. "Let's go, let's go."
"I'm looking forward to it. I'm looking forward for it to start counting," Carpenter says. "I'm looking forward to the first game. Here we go, it's time to go."
For Tom Glavine, the starting pitcher opposite Carpenter, the game is the first step of what could be his last season, and if he emerges as the winning pitcher, the 291st step toward 300 career victories. Glavine only wants it all this year -- 300 wins and another World Series. He and the Mets came so close last year. The Cardinals were the immovable obstacle and the irresistible force.
The last time a Cardinals pitcher threw a pitch of consequence, the bases were loaded and Shea Stadium was gnashing its teeth. Adam Wainwright struck out Carlos Beltran, the Cardinals' postseason nemesis of 2004. Sunday, it's Carpenter serving to Jose Reyes. Then, it's Glavine throwing to David Eckstein.
"I think Opening Day is special no matter how you look at it," said Scott Spiezio, who made himself the Mets' postseason nemesis in October. "But it's cool to get right in there and face a great pitcher and a team that came down to the wire last year with us. It shows you that it's no joke. We get right after it, right off the bat."
Only 14 men in the game's history have started more games than Glavine. This is his eighth Opening Day assignment, his fourth in five seasons with the Mets. There will be a sense of the routine, of course. But he anticipates being joined on the mound by a squadron of butterflies, more than what will accompany him in his subsequent starts.
"It's never been completely routine for me," he says. "I always feel them. And on Opening Day, the feeling is always a little stronger. It gets you; this is it, this is the beginning of what we're going to do for the next six months and, hopefully for us, a little bit longer. The excitement is part of why we do it."
Baseball Season begins in about 10 minutes...Enjoy!!!
ikno..
Hey jason, whats up? Hope sw-fl is nice. So Ca was 75 today and perfect.
I think we cleared things up. I originally posted that article as I would post any article on EI. I agree it wasn't written in the best context. The author could have articulated the write up better than that. But none the less I posted my findings. (huge EI supporter that I am, never a bash in my bones about this company or stock) I think it urked 80 just to see it layed out like that and I must admit it could have been layed out differently. I think the comparison was in poor taste but I am also confident that Eternal Image holds a great deal of strength in the business world for a new company and they will endure this and many other comparisons in the future. Summized: No Biggy..
Best to 80Sting. and all longs..
iknowa.
I have question. How many family members..immediate and extended..hold shares..? Most do not belong to a message board at all.
I can think of 5 in mine.
lol
....in that case, I'll have some Champagne with the Lobster and so will the rest of my family that owns this stock...
I agree with those price points. With the new floor we've created we can easily jump above a .01 and with the right set of circumstances surrounding the company we could see above .02 in April. We're on the way up thats for sure..
Will have to pick up some more shares in April...lol
