If you'll remember, last year Guillen got dumped by Wendlestedt and then was suspended once for the incident and a second time for calling Hunter a liar in response to the incident report. It didn't...

I have them
I've worn the +POS lo-cut, the Honigs Hi-top, and the pre-Patent Leather GD Hi-Top. I liked the GD Hi-Top a lot and still do. The GD-12's are a good plate shoe if you are on a budget. I personally...
