Conn, they worked for me. Here are my favorite quotes from each Lang article:
"Yeah, we had a heck of a time last year trying to slow them down, and they look to be even better this year," William & Mary coach Jimmye Laycock said. "And with Jennings back in, he's a heck of a back. We had our difficulties in that first game against Delaware trying to slow down the running game, and that's going to be a big challenge for our defense this week."
His left shoe has been reinforced with a steel insole, and the broken toe will be in a cast, so he's not worried about re-fracturing the toe if it is stepped on during a game.

If I had on steel-plated shoes, I'd be kicking everything in sight.

In Coach Rocco's Tuesday press conference, he says that Pinigis' special shoes make him look like "Herman Munster."

It may be time for PaMedic to try to Photo-shopping abilities again--but just remember that Pinigis is 6'8" & 295.

I am incredably impressed that you found a picture to match the angle of the shoes.

and I think I'm gonna regret this one, but...

I know- it was perfect- just had to scale it.

and I added the grey for "highlighting" effect.

because I'm a professional, and its what I do.

Medic, you never ever disappoint--great work!

With those shoes, Pinigus must be over 7 feet tall.

I want to see Medic wear a pair.

He'd still only "tower" at about 5'6.
