Cartoon Bird is BACK

[Don Quixote]

Now that Baltimore is on the road jerseys and the cartoon bird is on the cap, I see no obstacle to the Orioles returning to the playoffs. I look for everyone on the team to explode next year now that they are properly infused with Oriole tradition.

Must spread rep....

Yes, we understand that you'd rather see a winning team. We all would. But can't we enjoy this?

Just spread rep...

Nice. They must have just gotten that page up - I was looking for the stuff about 15 minutes ago and didn't see it.

EDIT: Effing $35 for the cap?!?

The embroidered bird on the cap looks much sharper than the graphic alone.

Did I say you shouldn't? By all means, please do. I'm very happy to have the cartoon bird back on the cap.

Can't believe they still have the realistic bird cap up for full price. Guess I'll hold off on that one.

Nice round-up on Chris Creamer's site:

Look is good, price is wrong. They should be half the price they are.

I dunno, the tone of your previous post sounded a little snarky. Apologies if I was wrong.

It's nice to see the Orioles looking like the Orioles again.

I was just about to say, do people really go out and spend $180 on a baseball jersey? That's unbelievable to me.

Did I ever mentioned that for one day I was the honorary batboy for the Washington Senators. I have a genuine, all-flannel Senators jersey from 1970 sitting in my closet to this day. I wonder what that thing is worth?

Overall I'm pleased. I was worried about the logo when I saw it on the website, but it looks great on the cap. I'm happy

Same here, looks better on the hat.
