WS logo on the side of the cap.

Post by jim »

Stupid and ugly. Just wear what got you there (I know they don't have a choice).

And while we are at it, the generic sweatshirts that they all wear. And a preemptive rant to the stupid generic world series championship hats that they will put on moments after they win.

But how else can they sell specialized World Series merchandise?

Yeah, I have those caps from 2004 & 2006 along with 2004 NL Champs and 2006 WS Champs (you know, the clubhouse celebration ones).

I never wear any of them. I prefer my plain old everyday navy road cap.

I bought a 2006 WS patch Cards hat. My normal plain home cap has shrunk some and when I wear it, it gives me a headache, so I tend to wear the 2006 hat a lot. It's all for merchandising (moychandizing), but yea, seeing the logo everywhere is pretty annoying and I know if the Cards wouldn't have won the WS there was no way I'd buy the hat. My favorite Cardinals hat I have is the birds on the bat batting practice hat from a couple years ago, just before they came out with the stupid bp hats with the orbs on the sides of the hat. It's very comfortable and after wearing it everyday at the car shop, it appears very broken in.

I'll do you one better.... I remember way back when they didn't have the MLB logo on the back of the cap. And by "way back when", I mean "some time in the mid-90's". I didn't like the MLB logo and I especially loathe the WS logo.

The generic sweatshirts, I am somehow okay with.

There's a kid in my major that wears this Yankees hat everyday that has a huge raised-embroidered MLB logo on the back of his hat. Whenever I see it, I want to kick him in the back of the head... I have other reasons to want to kick him in the back of the head tho.

The official on field caps have that logo embroidered this year. I'm not sure what you want him to do about it.

I'm thinking having the back of his head kicked in.

I mean the stitching is raised up and is nearly as bold as the actual NY logo. The damn thing is like half a centimeter tall off his hat, plus it was only the white part of the logo, no stitching within the logo to distinguish different colors on either side of the batter
