jkrdevil Posted May 28, 2005 Share Posted May 28, 2005 I'm watching the Yankees-Red Sox and I noticed early in the games that the Yanks have a flag patch on the side of their cap for Memorial Day weekend and Memorial Day. I thought this was a league wide thing however I just noticed the Red Sox don't have a flag on their cap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slapshot Posted May 28, 2005 Share Posted May 28, 2005 Keith Foulke has the flag on his cap. Back-to-Back Fatal Forty Champion 2015 & 2016 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tmorss9 Posted May 28, 2005 Share Posted May 28, 2005 Foulke wore a flag cap for most of last year. There was some controversy about it being "out of uniform" so the Equipment staff used a magic marker to cover the flag, so he basically wore the flag cap all year, I believe into the playoffs.

JQK Posted May 29, 2005 Share Posted May 29, 2005 the biggest joke is that the yanks won't be playing on memorial day.....MLB is so retarded sometimes.... Stay Tuned Sports Podcast Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJTank Posted May 29, 2005 Share Posted May 29, 2005 I agree every team should play on Memorial Day, Indpendance Day, and Labor Day. These are baseball holliddays where baseball is part of Americana and thus part of the tradition. It would be like not having a Bar-B-Que on those days. www.sportsecyclopedia.com For the best in sports history go to the Sports E-Cyclopedia at http://www.sportsecyclopedia.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bipolarbear Posted May 29, 2005 Share Posted May 29, 2005 of course he is. any team that has individuals who don't look or act like everybody else clearly are un-american. this country was founded on the principals that everyone should look and act the same, right?you want to talk about class? a-rod slapping the ball out of arroyo's glove heading to first...now that's class.

slapshot Posted May 29, 2005 Share Posted May 29, 2005 I guess it's conveniently forgotten how Mike Timlin was once reprimanded by Major League Baseball because he was told to remove a camouflage T-Shirt he was wearing under his uniform to honor the troops too.

BBTV Posted May 29, 2005 Share Posted May 29, 2005 I disagree. As a stadium employee, I'd hate to give up my holiday to go work at 1 of 81 baseball games. Football I can handle, but this would tick me off. I was asked to work the Lacrosse championships this weekend but declined so that I can actually hit the shore and enjoy my holiday. ALso, if friends/ family are planning a big bbq or something like that, I don't want to pass it up because I have tickets to a baseball game.

officeglenn Posted May 30, 2005 Share Posted May 30, 2005 Back to the flags on the caps ... I noticed in tonight's game, Mike Mussina did not have one on his. Good thing I caught it when I did, before he got yanked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

illinirox1 Posted May 30, 2005 Share Posted May 30, 2005 I noticed the Yankees still sing God Bless America at the 7th inning too. Was that only for Memorial Day or do they do that every game?Any Yanks fans want to clue me in?

Better yet, how about singing "Take Me Out to the Ballgame" in replace of the "Star Spangled Banner". Ever better, have Carl Lewis sing it I saw, I came, I left.

jkrdevil Posted May 30, 2005 Author Share Posted May 30, 2005 Stienbrenner is very patriotic since 9-11 God Bless America is played every game. For the Playoffs and big games they bring out Ronan Tynan to sing the extra long version to ice down the opposing teams pitcher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
