Mark Parker: E-commerce today is a small percentage of our business relative to what we think it could or should be, and we want to move this to a real commitment to pursuing the full potential of one of the fastest growing channels on the planet. The focus for us is in the U.S. market first and foremost but we see great potential around the world, certainly in Europe and in the Asia Pacific region as well. We are trying to take this through phases and starting with the USA as being the primary focus. We are building a strong team to really go after the opportunity and build this into a competency for Nike.

Charlie Denson: The key here is focusing on the biggest opportunities. The Bauer business today is about $160 million last year hence not that material to the portfolio. Therefore, the long term growth potential just wasn''t going to move the needle and we felt we could better deploy the resources elsewhere.
