When you watch a dodger game, 90% of the crowd is sporting their one and only blue LA hats. The SD and SF hats are huge too and they all play in the same division. I'd rock an AZ hat if it ever happens...Until then, I'll stick with the Red Sox. From a financial perspective: Imagine how much additional revenue the D'backs would generate by creating classic, traditional, timeless merchandise. For the kids, they could keep making the pink and goofy hats. |

Hoover, why don't you make the hat you're talking about (westernish-style "P" on a dark hat)? I'd buy one. |

If Tucson was slightly bigger to warrant a pro sports team, do you think any Phoenix (or Tucson for that matter) team would be named Arizona Anythings? Hell no, it would be a city rivalry and the team would be all about the city. |
Don't they make that suns hat?
|
Speaking of the D-backs unis... did anyone see their opening day game in Colorado? The guys on the bench were wearing hoodies that had a classic simple athletic look to them.
http://mlb.imageg.net/graphics/produ...-7108169dt.jpg If they made that "A" into their cap, that would be simple and cool. Hell, make the David Blaine copied "db" logo their main logo and put it on the cap. Using a nickname logo as your main cap logo isn't very traditional, but anything is better than the "D" or the snake looking "A". |

you'd be walking around in a hat that says you're a DB!!

The black on black "db" hat is somewhat better bc the hat could go with anything you wear, but I've never been much of a fan of hats of the mascot. ie: old Cleveland Indians, Florida Marlins, Baltimore Orioles, Toronto Blue Jays, etc... |
What about, like, an upper case P that's on fire?
I like Cincinnati's white wishbone C for the Reds, but I'm a homer, so take from that what you will. |

I also think it would be sweet to have on the back of the hat a small setting sun with either "Suns" or "PHX" in it, like used to be on the Suns shorts: http://www.sportsecyclopedia.com/nba...estphalPhx.jpg One day when I win the lotto and have enough money to create a Phoenix version of something like StL Style I'll make said hat :D Quote:

The Snakes easily have the worst caps in the NL. The only team in baseball that I think is worse is the new school Blue Jays hat with the bird coming out of the "J", its atrocious (though the old Jays stuff was nice). Heck even Tampa Bay wised up and came out with those very sharp "TB" hats when they did their image update and realized style choices made in the mid and late 90's were horrifying. |

I do remember watching the unveiling of the Phoenix Coyotes shortly after they relocated from Winnipeg and I was 100% sure they were going to be named the Arizona Coyotes. Even back then in 1996 I was pissed about teams being named after states. When I saw they were unveilied as the Phoenix Coyotes I rejoiced (only to now find out they're becoming the Arizona Coyotes if the whole gig out there in Glendale is ever figured out). When the Diamondbacks were unveilied I remember thinking about how sh!tty the teal/purple combination was and how disappointed I was in the design. If only they'd listen to me/us... |
I was able to mock this up at Lids.com but the problem is even with it set to the largest available font the "P" looks tiny and silly:

Which would be OK by me, I wouldn't care as long as they agreed to start making the hats themselves. Seems like such an obvious idea... The grey looks really nice and would be a good option for males not comfortable with purple (though I'm a borderline dandy, so I'd probably go purple). Plus with the Suns using the grey/graphite trim on their uni's these days it works. |
^^ I'd definitely purchase those hats. Simple and clean.

To follow up on the car talk from earlier...
http://www.phxphotos.com/2011Audi/9.jpg :) Now I have to do a downtown car photo shoot like I did with my old car when I first bought it. Maybe next weekend. :D http://nitnelav.com/AudiDowntown6.JPG http://nitnelav.com/AudiDowntown8.JPG |
Congrats dude. Thats a nice looking ride.

Does anyone here mountain bike more than just as a weekend warrior?
Discovered a killer trail today at Estrella and ate shit on one descent. |
^^I used to ride the Desert Classic trail in South Mountain.
I was a weekend warrior though. |
