Title: Brunswick selling name
Post by: completebowler on April 09, 2009, 07:51:25 PM: I heard that Brunswick is in talks to sell the ball manufacturing to one of the other manufacturers bringing the production back to the US.

Wanted to know if anyone else has heard these rumors elsewhere?

plans. After all, a major expenditure in the move to Mexico, surely was
not planned as a long term business plan. Isn't he the CEO?

If you heard (or even overheard) something like that, tell me you wouldn't be on this site in a second asking if anyone else heard anything.

In the words of your elementary school teacher(s)..."If you haven't anything nice to say, don't say anything at all." Though I actually prefer Clairee Belcher's take on the subject..."If you don't have anything nice to say about anybody, come sit by me!"
