| I'm having some technical difficulties currently on the new hats. They needed the old artwork from 2005 apparently and I just got that e-mailed to them so it could be late April if we even get it done. Team Finland? I'm thinking of the Olympics in hockey for that one....Koivu, Miettinen, Kiprusoff, Backstrom...

| Here is the newest on the New Era hats. Apparently if we ordered them now we wouldn't get them until June. Also, its now not positive that they can even get it done (i'm supposed to hear back on that this week). But, if they can I was wondering if people still wanted to do it. They would be here in June (allegedly) and would be $20-$25 each. Let me know...I want to either quit the ordeal or get them ordered this week.

| If we are getting new CAPS, why don't we just wait until next year. That way we could get it organized sooner and get our hats at the start of the season. I think everyone should have a CAP from last year. (CAP is a funny word)

| I went through my garage and here is what is left over from previous hat orders:
NEW ERA: 6 fitted and 4 adjustible (2) 6 3/4 (1) 6 7/8 (6) 7
ZEPHYR ALL BLUE: 37 total (4) 6 5/8 (4) 6 3/4 (1) 6 7/8 (2) 7 (7) 7 1/8 (3) 7 1/4 (1) 7 3/8 (2) 7 1/2 (10) 7 5/8 (1) 7 3/4 (2) 7 7/8
ZEPHYR WHITE PANEL: 6 total (4) 7 5/8 (2) 7 3/4
As you can see they are all in wacky sizes that are too small or too large. So we will have to order some sort of hat, we just need to decide which model we are going with or get both models of the Zephyrs. I am in favor of staying with all blue, especially if we are not wearing the white uniforms.
There are also the following sweatshirts left: 1 L crew 1 M crew 1 M hood 1 XL hood

| C-Bass I should have a taker on an XL gold Snurdbird tee. I agree Big Tone they are making this way more hard than it has to be. If we want to go with Zephyr we'd have to do 72 as well but it could be worthwhile being we are out of the main sizes and they would be $15. It would probably be early May on those. Didn't hear from the New Era person today. Do we have a consensus on how we should proceed?

| Also, IF, we choose to do another hat and choose Zephyr we don't have to do the flat brim style we did last time, we could do the regular brim as on the all blue hat.

| Would it be possible to do half and half on the white panel and blue panel hat? If we stayed within the normal sizes we would probably be set for a few years this way.
I guess my vote is to not worry about New Era for this year but to also not just throw it out the window. I would like to have a couple myself but they are difficult to deal with.

| New Era isn't going to work, its official. Way too difficult. Zephyr can now do it in as low as 36 total, but the price is a little more. So we could do 36 white front panel, and 36 all blue like the original one if we want to, the price is just slightly higher. To get the 72 pricing you have to do all the same hat. I'm fine if we do it or don't. I have two white front panel hats and it appears we have a lot of 7 5/8 all blue ones left. I'm just concerned about other people who might not have enough. I guess my vote would be to do 36 blue & 36 white front panel so we could have two hats we can use.

| I think maybe we need to have an online vote or something do decide what unis and hats we are going to sport. Like i have said all along i don't care one way or another. None-the-less we should have 2 of 3, unis either grey and blue white and blue or white and white. And i am in favor of blue hats as well but not against wearing both. I think it would be great if we could wear white pants and whatever top at home (midway or menahga games) with either hat and grey pants and blue jerseys and blue hats on the road. This should not be a hard concept to grab and having the proper unis along to every game should also not be a problem if you know anything about baseball or call yourself a baseball player and nobody should disagree with that.

| i agree that this should be resolved soon, it would be nice to have it sorted so we could possibly get something in the schedule as what uni for each game, i have no problem with both hats, but i'm guessing some of you are going to just have to bring everything to every game...

| We think too much. Lets start by voting on hats. Order NO hats. Order blue hats. Order white/blue hats. Order blue and blue/white hats. Regular bill on hat. Larger bill on hat. My vote is 36 blue, 36 blue/white, regular bill on hat, unless everyone has enough hats to get through this year. As far as unis it doesn't really matter to me. Have we seen artwork for the black one? Not to sound like a female but I don't know how well it would match with white pants (grey pants with it might not be too bad?), black top, and blue hat. Who would we get them from? C-Bass can you order more of the white Rawlings tops for the people that don't own one? Obviously meaning that it would be a low amount so the price could be higher. It would be nice to have that uni back in the mix. I think it would be sweet to wear the white pants, white tops, with the white panel hat (away games). Then for home games (Menahga & Midway) wear white pants, blue tops, with all blue hats. That is my two cents.

| 36 of each hat needs to be done since New Era are chicken lickers. I would like home & away unis as well. Who all needs white jerseys? Maybe 3-4? And if you need new pants you can go buy white pants somewhere

| I agree 1E, not impressed with New Era. They are better quality hats but cost way more too. That also means we don't really have any other outs than Zephyr, so thats why I think we should get 36 blue and 36 white panel/blue because I don't see us changing to anything else in the near future. Does anyone else have any thoughts/ideas?

| no new hats. all white uni's at midway/menahga games and blue grey on the road. I don't care about an alternate uni. if they are cheap ($20 was it?) i think they would look fine with white pants (see Netherlands uni's), plus they could be worn either away or home if needed, because as Eino stated, they would likely look better with grey pants.

| Whatever we need for hats get em i guess,especially if it seems we have some of each left and the team is willing to wear both style, which would be pretty sweet, they always sell and i would assume eino and chris would get together on that cuz they have info on inventory. So that should be taken care of without a vote if we are getting both styles. We have some good input on unis, now an official vote would be groovy at some point... Eino, i have a black jersey already made and done, the art work is done, and their would be no setup fee involved which is nice and i have a place that said they will do them right now if we want?! So that is done just to order them if we go that route. Jake, shroom, kyle, and sean i think are they only ones to view said jersey thusfar, but i will work on getting a pic on the web soon, just to give people something to go with the coversations if nothing else. Mikey, not to be a big meany, but you know just as well as the next guy you cant just go somewhere and buy good quality ballpants! haha, chris or myself can put a man in contact with a website to get the same brand pant if not the same model so we don't look like a bunch of goofs with 10 different styles of pants, so please unless you know what you are doing, don't buy pants without consulting someone who knows what is going on first.

| Alright, I'm ordering the hats (both the blue and white front panel). Its a necessity to have hats and its not a big hit on the budget, and it would be nice to not do away with the white panel hat after just having it one year. One final vote, do people want the standard visor like on the blue ones we did, or the larger visor like the white panel ones? I'm ordering these tomorrow night so let me know ASAP.

| Etter, do you want to wear them up or down? If you want em with a wide opening at the bottom go to www.baseballexp.com and get the rawlings pro flare pant all white. If you want them super long so you can tailor them to your likings get the rawlings pro preferred unhemmed. Thats what i would suggest to all who want to order new pants.
