The Fourth of July is upon us, and so is LOTS of baseball! Which, in turn, has put me in the mood to shop for a new baseball cap!

I’m not personally the kind of guy who likes to wear a baseball cap EVERY waking hour, but I do own a couple of different MLB team baseball caps.

Actually, I’m guilty of liking some of these 2009 Stars & Stripes caps. Kind of strange since I’m a red blooded Canuck, but what can I say, I think they’re unique. And I personally think it’s cool that all 30 teamsare represented, and are available to buy - not just the big market teams.

I might consider celebrating Canada Day in style next year with the Blue Jays fitted capthat Ricky Romero recently adorned when he trounced the Tampa Bay Rays this past Wednesday.
While were on the subject of the Toronto Blue Jays Ricky Romero…Is it just WaiverSharks, or does RR bare an uncanny resemblance to rapper LL Cool J?

C’mon…a little bit at least?

We’re sure Ricky doesn’t possess the wash board abs of LL Cool J…If he did, he wouldn’t have had that unexpected DL stint earlier in the MLB season & subsequent high fantasy baseball drop rate…Uggg! Guilty again!

Incidentally, I don’t wanna open up any rascist or non-rascist Chief Wahoodebates, but is the 2009 Stars & Stripes Cleveland Indians cap (pictured at the top of this blog article) Better? or worse then the now defunct Authentic Stars & Stripes Performance 59FIFTY On-Field Cap from last season that featured a Chief Wahoo version on blue? I was not even aware that the Indians had such a “C” logo in their arsenal of alternate uni’s?

By the way, mysteriously, I could not find a Chief Wahoo Stars & Stripes capANYWHERE in the MLB Shop? Hmmm…did I just miss it, or has it been discontinued???

I couldn’t find any on eBayeither. So, if you bought one last year, perhaps you have a potential Cleveland Indians Chief Wahoocollector’s item? Go figure, now that I can’t locate one of these, I kind of want one…ahhh, I probably would never find my head size anyways!
Next week: I’ll tackle an even more difficult dilemma!

Which MLB Jerseyshould I invest in?

If you visit our site occasionally, you may know I was ready to open up my wallet, & spend my hard earned dollars on a Matt LaPorta Jersey. Hmmm…come to think of it, that jersey would have looked pretty good with the no longer available Chief Wahoocap! So, do I stick with this plan, or invest in a different baseball jersey? As Scooby Doo would say: “R@CKIN’ recession”…(That’s “Rockin” kids) has forced me to be a little more choosey with my apparel expenditures.

But for goodness sakes, Charlie Brown, I can’t wear my dust accumulating, closet condemned, Jason Bay jerseyany longer- from his Pirates days! Bay has long since moved to Bean Town, and the Mucho Nachos I’ve consumed over the years over at Comerica Park have moved my belly outwards to a point where that baby makes me resemble Demi Moore on the cover of Esquire.

So, I’ll break it down next week in a short list of 5 MLB jerseysI’m considering buying - & the one I (after much deliberation) have decided on.
