Around SBN: Ryder Hesjedal Wins Giro d'Italia

Final ACES Cover and AN Tee Orders

The publisher for Mychael Urban's upcoming book ACES sent me the final cover for the book today.  It was revised to say, "The Last Season" for Oakland's famed Big Three.  Very sad.  But at least we're going to have something to immortalize their tenure in green and gold.  It's fortunate that Urban chose to write the book when he did.

I figured I would share.  

Oh, and Urban shared this little classic nugget with me today.

"Blez, who does Eric Byrnes remind you of?"

"I give up, Urb."

"Steve Irwin, The Crocodile Hunter."

"LOL, I can completely see that. The same energy."

Just wanted to share Urban's little observation with AN that had me laughing out loud.

Also, the company I'm working with to develop the Athletics Nation tee shirts has put together the tees.  

They've asked me to see if I could get an estimate as to how many orders on this thread (at least for the initial print run).  So, in the comments below, let me know, how many shirts you want, what style and what size.  The prices will be between $15 and $20.  And I'm told that we can personalize the shirt with your screen name on it, possibly on the sleeve, for an extra $6 or so.

Any way, this is the ringer tee:

Here is the heather tee:

Here is the woman's tee:

Again, let me know what quantity you're going to want, what size and what style.  We'll then get these to the printer.

Blez, if you haven't already tallied everything up, I changed my mind.... I'd like the girly ringer tee. I just realized my mom wears shirts like the woman's tee and, trust me, the last thing I want is to be dressed like my mom. Unless I like the clothes she buys. Then it's ok. :)

To start
(1) heather, man's XL.  A good quality tee, even if it costs more.  Would really like a good quality golf shirt with logo on chest or sleeve.  You might also consider offering hats, socks, towels, jockeys, thongs (oops, no place for logo!).

by LongTimeFan on Feb 8, 2005 8:45 AM PST reply actions  

suggestion for a minor tweak to the design
I apologize for my first AN post being of a slightly negative nature, but I would suggest that the design on the front of the t-shirt be altered a bit if it's not too late.  I think the T's would look MUCH sharper if you didn't have the baseball sitting on that dark green box.  The green background box works great on this site because the dimensions of the box fit snugly into the left column.  However, on a blank white or grey shirt, the dimensions of the green box look arbitrary in relation to the shirt.

I think the best design would be to put the baseball/globe on a dark green shirt.  Put the front/back text in white or gold.  Just my opinion.

P.S. For all the things I read about over the past few months, but didn't comment on: congrats on the baby, Blez; that "sellout" troll was a moron; I'm excited about the kids in 2005; San Jose isn't as geographically centered in the fanbase as Oakland, but is better than Vegas; hopefully Lew can get a stadium in an Oaktown location other than the parking lot because I think an infill site elsewhere in Oakland (like Uptown) would allow the city to create more of a destination district with bars, restaurants, etc. next to the stadium.  And I think THAT would do wonders for attendance.

other people have already mentioned this, but if you could get some hats going, that would be great (especially mesh, but I'd probably be the only customer then, so I'd settle for standard New Era-style or whatever...).  Think about it; you already have lots of people coming out of the woodwork to order T-shirts....

on-line store
I like that idea for an on-line store.  Mostly because I'm broke as hell right now and can't even afford a 15 dollar tee shirt (heather, size M).  
But down the line, like when I actually have a decent paying job, I'd definitely order one or more tee-shirts, beanies, sweatshirts, thongs for my girl, long sleeved tees for chilly nights at the C, beer coozies, and hard hats to deflect tossed chairs.

Spring Training?
Since no good wish should go unheard - I would like to put in the request to have these available for those of us making spring road trips to Phoenix. Going to be in AZ the week of March 6th and it sure would be nice to adorn an XL heather AN/IBWT tee shirt while booing the hated, hated Giants at A's stadium on March 9th.

Sorry to be repetitive
Sorry if I'm repeating myself, but we're basically finding out how many, what sizes and what types to order for our first print run of the tees.

We'll be putting up the official online store very, very soon.  Then you can order whatever you want through that.

I just wanted to make sure that people didn't think we were taking orders here.

Thanks, everyone.  The shirts are coming very soon!  Promise.
