None of these items are for sale from me, however. If I find gear of teams that I hate in the future, though, then I will entertain offers. :)

Oh, and I love that nickname you've bestowed on me, TVIXX :D

My thrift store beef: Idiot workers who actually staple the price tag right onto the fabric.....thus practically ruining it. Goodwill is spotty, but Salvation Army is awful. I've lost count of the items I would have bought that I passed on because of the hole in the shirt from the attached price tag. I once saw a big price tag hole on the front of a brand-new w/ tag Lauren polo shirt. Not to mention vintage sports t's & baseball jerseys. I've often wondered about the IQ of some of the workers in these places. But the real blame should go to the owners who are so clueless that the practice goes on.

Its extremely rare for those staples to actually leave permanent damage to any clothing... its all about how careful you are about removing them... an old-fasioned stapler remover does the job 99% of the time

The only tough part is dealing with smart aleck punks on message boards. There are no "people with disabilities" at any Salvation Army I've ever visited or donated to.

Watch out, guys, we got a badass over here.

Tell me about it. And I can't speak for Salvation Army, but Goodwill hired plenty of disabled people. They have large photos of retarded people on their walls to advertise that they give jobs to all types of disabled people.

I got that silver Mariners cap on ebay for about $5 including shipping on ebay a couple years ago. One of my best ebay gets - I like it even more than teal Mariners cap I have, it gives me Randy Johnson flashbacks.

I would post the obligatory bird-hitting gif, but that's from his days as member of the Diamondbacks.
