Come on!

Jay Bruce jersey
I’m going to come off as a bit of a snob here… whatever.

Dude is committing a couple of jersey fouls:

1) Rocking the sleeveless without a matching undershirt (white? really?)

2) We’re glad that you’re a Jay Bruce fan… and maybe you were a fan before we all were… But you can’t get his name put on a jersey that he never wore.

3) That’s an awful embroidery job. Incorrect fonts, name is not arched… argh.

It just all comes out to be a train wreck. Sorry dude… I’ll give you points for being a fan. But, if you’re going to get a jersey done… by all means, GET IT DONE UP RIGHT.

Junior swag #2

Ken Griffey Jr. commemorative poster
Also given away at tonight’s Ken Griffey Jr. tribute was pretty nice poster. The art was commissioned by Nike and also ran as a full-page ad in the local newspaper last week.

Ken Griffey Jr. tribute night swag
Giveaways tonight’s Ken Griffey Kr. tribute night included an “oversized baseball card” with milestone home runs listed on the back and a photo thingie complete with double-sided tape for you to place your ticket stub on. Suitable for framing, of course. Both of them.

Oh, and there was a poster too.

Junior night

Ken Griffey Jr. Night at GABP
We’re glad that the Reds honored Griffey for his milestone home run and all that he has done for the game. 4/5′s of the OMGreds team were on hand for tonight’s ceremonies. 3/5s of us couldn’t hear what the hell was going on though. We were standing in the gap on the third base side where apparently there is no loudspeaker. Oh well… I’m sure we can catch what was said on youtube or reds.com soon.

Speaking of what was said… some dude came up to us while the ceremonies were going on and mentioned to us (out of nowhere) that he has “real” “insider info” that Griffey is gone by the end of the week. MARK HIS WORDS! He certainly was itching to tell someone.

Well, we doubt he would be traded before Ken Griffey Jr. Camo Jersey night/day. I mean… come on. That’s just common sense.

Jay Bruce vs. Red Sox
Jay got the better of the Red Sox in the first inning tonight when he mashed a fatty to right field.

Big Red Zombie Machine
This is the wall behind the register at the newly open clotheir downtown, Unheard Of. It’s the famous photo of the Big Red Machine that you all recognize, but apparently they have all become zombies in their old age.

Give them a check sometime… they peddle fashionable sneakers and tee shirts. Clickly clicky: www.unheardofbrand.com

Mr. Deadlegs
You have to be something else to rock this shirt. My guess is we’ll see SOMEONE wearing this sometime. I’ll do my best to get you a view here first.

My homeboys over at Unheard Of have this sucker exclusively in-stock.

Together again!
