               Appeal 2007-2027                                                                             
               Application 10/210,269                                                                       

               ordinary skill sufficient reason to make the rigid portion of Lukens’ athletic               
               cup from ABS.                                                                                
                      Thus, we affirm the Examiner’s rejection of claim 8.  Because claims                  
               7, 17, and 18 were argued in the same group as claim 8, those claims fall                    
               with claim 8.  37 C.F.R. § 41.37(c)(1)(vii).                                                 
                                               SUMMARY                                                      
                      We affirm the Examiner’s rejection of claims 1, 3-6, 9-11, 13-16, 19,                 
               and 20 as obvious over Lukens and Jacobs.                                                    
                      We also affirm the Examiner’s rejection of claims 7, 8, 17, and 18 as                 
               obvious over Lukens, Jacobs, and McKay.                                                      

                                               AFFIRMED
