The ghettofication of simple all american staples like a baseball lid makes me so sad.

And they are ugly too...

Thank you for saying what's needed to be said for nine years. I'm a Yankee hater (because they knocked my Rangers out of the playoffs in about 35 minutes during their best years), and one of my friends was wearing a Yankees hat not because he was a fan, but "I like the colors."
How the friendship continues is a total fucking mystery to me.

You were wearing your favorite pink Yankees hat when you wrote this, weren't you?

Paul: your take on pink sports jerseys. Go.

My thoughts on pink jerseys were made clear in an article I wrote for ESPN.com's Page 2 on what your jersey says about you.

Is this a Yankees hat?

Sorry... even though I completely agree with you on this topic, I couldn't resist.

But why would you want to wear a Yankees hat, when you could wear a Cubs hat and look so much better, hmmm?

Was just in your fair city, btw, and enjoyed sneering at the idjits in Rangers jerseys, especially as my beloved Sabres kicked their butts... ;-)
