Fogdog Finds a New Owner

 PROFILE
Instead of pulling away from a pack of online sporting goods retailers, Fogdog has been absorbed into one. The company operated the Fogdog Web site, offering more than 600 brands of sports apparel, footwear, and equipment. Fogdog had a coveted deal with NIKE to sell its footwear online -- NIKE's first such deal with an online retailer. But after e-commerce site operator Global Sports bought Fogdog in December 2000, NIKE cancelled the deal. Stanford roommates Brett Allsop, Robert Chea, and Andrew Chen formed the company in 1994 to develop Web sites for sporting goods firms. Global Sports operates the Fogdog site under its original name.
