\"\"The first full capacity crowd gathered since the Covid19 pandemic hit yesterday in Texas.<\/p>\n

Almost 40,000 fans caught the Texas Rangers<\/a> home opener against the Jays. The Rangers announced last month they would not put a limit on attendance for Opening Day, President Joe Biden didn’t like the idea. There is a mask policy, fans are only allowed to drop the face coverings to eat or drink.<\/p>\n

The team has said repeatedly Monday will be a one-time-only event, they believe there will be no more sell-outs following Monday’s action.<\/p>\n

The Jays won 6-2.<\/p>\n

\"\"Unable to find a new pair of Nike’s<\/a>?<\/p>\n

\"\"Nike wants customers to buy more of its shoes, clothing and gear at Nike stores and on Nike.com<\/a> and its apps. So the company in recent years has slashed the number of traditional retailers it sells its goods to while shifting to grow directly through its own channels, especially online. That has affected big and small retailers.<\/p>\n

Why would they do this? Nike gets to control the shopper experience more tightly and the prices at which products are sold when it goes directly to consumers.<\/p>\n

Rivals Under Armour and Adidas are following Nike’s lead and also pulling back on the number of retail partners they rely on.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"April 6th is the 96th day of 2021.
