@Les: yea…it did sound odd, but I thought maybe since he has done so much “sport/Football” stuff (TV, Video Games etc.), that he decided to “design” shoes and handbags.
I actually had a few conversations with my sister about how cool Madden was until I realized we were talking about different Maddens…
The conversations went something like this:
———————————————————————————————-
me: (points to a Large handbag that says MADDEN) Oh, I didn’t know you Like Madden…
sister: “Ooo ya!” ...wait how do you know him
me: please! he is really famous, Of course I know him
sister: SO, RRY
me: I didn’t know he made hand bags too
sister: yes, they are great
me: (puts headphone back on)
It didn’t seem that odd at the time since these days celebs do everything from Singing, Acting, Opening their own restaurant, Having their own Clothing Line…to doing their own Reality show..
