haha. i went ballcap shopping last night.

local team doing pretty well and ended up in a world series.. maybe you've heard about it?

well. i decided to show some spirit and floated the idea about to buy a cap. i actually wanted a camo version. mix it up some. i see caps everywhere. everything i found had a damn flat bill. haha. for the record, i look damn stupid. i'm too old, too "puffy", and i dont have that many hooded sweatshirts, and Vans. i couldnt do it.

i''ll run the gauntlet tonight and try the official dugout store. downtown SF.

can you wear a flat bill? is there an official age limit?

God forbid you should pull any of the stickers off before wearing. Everybody wants to look like friggin' Minnie Pearl.

No, but there is a limit as to what is in good taste. Flat-bill caps are for rappers, gang-bangers (rapper gang-bangers) and their wanna-be followers. You don't want to fit-in that badly. Man up and buy the adult version of the team cap and wear it proudly.

You mean you aren't going with the Earnhardt jr. green "Dew" hat on backwards. I'll never understand that and the flat brim crap.

Enjoy the series.

It's like the florescent stuff. Over 25 and you just look like you're trying too hard.

Ears out or under? That's the real question.

"Ball cap shopping" is your problem right there. You probably went to "Lids" or whatever at the mall? That's the land of the flat brim. If you want a sports team cap, get it at the Sporting Goods store. I like those caps that come with a T shirt, they are already rolled around the T shirt so the brim is nice and round.

get one of these, they can't be worn backwards as they have two bills.

Are they paying you to advertise the team? No?

I see no reason to give those people more money.

Yeah, but when you wear it sideways you REALLY look like a dork!

Scientists have shown that the FLAT BILL cap is actually an evolutionary adaptation for what modern society calls the "BRO."

Research has confirmed that the skull features of the BRO share a commonality with the cro-magon skull, indicated by largely absent brow ridge, low square orbits, and a generally narrower braincase.

This scientific research can be confirmed when the BRO is observed in nature, with a generally less-developed intelligence, sense of awareness and difficulty adapting to societal norms.

Don't be a BRO, Cliff.
