    The baseball version of “19-0″

  4. TurkWendell9999 says:

    Now all they need to do is hire Rickey Henderson as a first base coach and sign Mota and they will fall into oblivion.

  5. TugTheMan says:

    That website is flitering the reviews. Posted a review on it and it won’t post!!! What a mess for that company!!!

  6. thrill5one6 says:

    Damn, those shirts are hideous. Aren’t Philly chicks ugly enough already?

  10. Nightlife says:

    lol

  11. rustyjr says:

    most are ugly – kinda like sloth meets roseanne barr but the hotties think Yo Yo Ma is a kids toy

      *meaning they ain’t too bright

    • phillygalfan says:

      well thank goodness they don’t post pictures along with your screen names! If that were the case, there would be an overwhelming incidence of blindness from the sheer horror!! Ease up on the insults and keep it to baseball my friend.!!

      • rustyjr says:

        never said i was a looker sweetie but iv’e been to the electric factory and the philly gals ive seen aint nuthin to write home about

  12. MadMike5 says:

    I hope hundreds of Phillies fans by the shirt so then they have something to wipe their A$$ with. I love how they are tired of chasing us too. It’s awesome.

  13. BIG17EASY says:

    What’s a jink?

  14. gipper82475 says:

    Matt,

    Jinx, not jink.

    Jink, I believe, is Jar Jar Binks’ cousin. And, Jair Jurrjens’ brother.

  15. BlueCapsOnly says:

    Just an FYI for all the people who watch the Mets on mlb.tv. I got an email today that said starting tonight both home and away feeds would be available starting tonight.

    obviously that doesn’t matter for this series, but it will be nice for the remaining away games.

  16. moodswingr says:

    Rather odd that this place has stores only in the pacific northwest..I understand trying to be ahead of the curve, but this is just ridiculous…

  17. rustyjr says:

    big hawaiian community in the northwest – prob all shane vic fans – either that or the think ryan howard is the pig for the luau

    • rustyjr says:

      learned about the polynisian communitiy living in the pac n.w from the food network – guy feiri – god among men!!

  18. mookie says:

    Off Topic; How did the rivalry between us and the phils begin? Just curious.

  19. rustyjr says:

    j-roll said they were the team to beat

  20. Flushing_is_Burning says:

    wow the cahones on the marketing people!

  21. NYsMaineMan says:

    They Made a Mets’ t-shirt last year; and then our collapse began. It truly was a jinx!

  22. rustyjr says:

    hey guy’s hows about this for for the 08 theme song – shoot em down by twisted sister or the boys are back in town by thin lizzy (not the busboys)

  23. djbutler says:

    as thrill5one6 said the Mets are jinxed to. Go to Google and type in “mets 2008 division champion shirt”, then scroll down to shopping results. And let the dread roll over you.

  24. Gary Busey says:

    1. Why are they both women’s shirts?
    2. Once again, I feel there is a relevant Dugout: mlb.fanhouse.com/2007/10/17/the-dugout-schwag-chat/

  25. JINBK says:

    I guess the Marlins are about to come roaring back and win the division, since the Mets and Phillies have both been irreparably jinxed by these t shirts and stand no chance

  26. JetsnMets says:

    I work in this industry (licensed sports apparel) and while it seems strange to us as fans, it is not uncommon at all for us to order ‘hot market’ (i.e. playoffs & championship hats or tees) products many weeks or months in advance.

    Often we will order what we would like depending on specific team ‘if win’ scenarions. In 2006, we had Mets NLCS gear in our systems as early as mid September, but also for the Cardinals and Dodgers.

    I guess what I am getting at is that it’s not really a jinx, because these things are designed and ordered for all teams well in advance of the playoff field being set.

  27. Peter says:

    Dreaded Magic Number is back . . . .

    Is still think it’s bad karma unless it’s a runaway to post a magic number.

  28. TugTheMan says:

    wasn’t really expecting anything at all. but one would imagine that someone with an once of smarts take it down before it gets out of hand!!!

  29. rustyjr says:

    he he he i think they will hedge theyre bets and put a mets one up too

  30. rustyjr says:

    and remember they are from the land of scrapple
