what font was this made from?

It's not the "correct" font for sports authority, but it is a screen shot of a vector path created from a photo of the local sports authority sign in my town.
I am working on a bid to change out the neon for LED's, and I am preparing the bid for a national company, not my local store. part of the scope of the project is to produce a pattern for new faces to fit the old cans.

If I get the job, I would rent a boom lift & remove all the faces to trace them... quite an expensive portion of the job, but I see no other way to ensure a good fit.

Meanwhile, for the purpose of better looking presentation drawings (& possibly for comparison to my tracings as a tool in the digitizing of those drawings) I would like help remembering this font. It seems like one of those easy ones, but I've never been a font expert & this one escapes me so far.

Thanks for the responses... sorry for the confusion in all those paragraphs when folks usually just say "got sports authority logo"?

I don't need the sports authority logo, the sports authority font, or the link to brandsofthworld.com ...of course I appreciate it, but I have all that already...

Please forget I ever made the mistake of mentioning "sports authority"
I want to know if anyone can determine "what font this was made from?"

thanks again... The Goudy fonts I had installed had an open P, but I installed a number of other Goudy versions & the heavyface is somewhat close, so I will make that work for my proposal drawings.
