Question ID: 58134
I purchased stock in the company The Edge Sports.Com, Inc.  Is this
still a viable holding?  My last contact from them was in August 2000
from Jeff Givens.  I see references to its wholly owned subsidiary
TheEdgeZone.com but I can't find any reference to the corporation or
its investor hotline.
Answer  
There is no answer at this time.

I'm sorry to say there's no record of an Initial Public Offering for
The Edge Sports, Inc. or a subsidiary, nor a stock symbol, or any
other evidence that stock was traded on any U.S. Exchange. I'm able to
find 'memories' of the website through the Wayback Machine, and a
mention of The Edge Sports, listed as a Presenter, at a Venture
Capital Conference in Texas in 2000. The Edge Sports, Inc. does not
appear to be currently listed as a corporation in the State of
California. Unless you have more information, such as a registered
stock symbol, tracing this investment through the Internet appears to
dead end.

It would appear your investment falls into the category of Pre-IPO, or
Private Share Stock.  As such, it would be prudent to have your
contract read and analyzed by an attorney who specializes in such, and
who may be able to advise of you remedies and options available, if
any. A cautionary brochure from the Securities and Exchange Commission
is located at:

You probably want to look over this site:

THE END OF THEIR TEAM

Racewire - 4/17/01
"Motocross champion Jeff Emig's former team, Strategic 3 Motosports,
was recently dissolved due to The Edge Sports.com's failure to fulfill
their financial obligation as title sponsor to the team. The Edge
Sports.com had committed to sponsoring the team for three years, but
did not come through on their promise."

"When my cell phone rang late Monday evening and the caller I.D.
showed that it was Jeff Emig on the line, it immediately piqued my
curiosity. Why would the four-time AMA National Champion and owner of
TheEdgeSports.com supercross team be calling me at such an hour? It
couldn’t be good news, I remember thinking.
      It wasn’t. Jeff told me that his fledgling team — a personal
dream of his long before he even retired — had to fold up the tents
because the dot.com banker no longer had the funds to keep the big rig
on the road or Michael Byrne and Casey Johnson on the track."

When i purchased this stock it was privatly held, and maybe never did
go public.  Looks like they registered as a Delaware corporation, last
address in Denver CO.  It may be the company that was sponsoring Jeff
Imig.  looks like their sponsorship fell through

Sound like it was part of the dot-com bubble, the "new economy". 
Probably spent most of it's money sponsoring the racing team
(marketing).  You might want to talk to your tax accountant about
writing off the loss.  Hope it wasn't too much.  The web site
TheEdgeZone.com is "active" but tied to another name.  You might want
to reach someone through there (tiny contact us on the bottom).
The old number for TheEdgeZone.com can be found using:
://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&ie=ISO-8859-1&q=%22theedgezone.com%22+888

You might also contact Joe Boller from Froggette & Company in Wichita,
KS about the shares.  See if this name is in any of your paperwork.

Rumors (can't substantiate):
Jeff Givens is loading trucks for UPS.
R. Stevens is teaching karate.
Robert Little, a retail store owner in CA, got out earlier.
Bond holder took over most of remaining assets (domain name).
Many people had losses.
