This shouldn't be that hard...it's been 75 years since that famous speech, which makes it the 74th anniversary, not the 75th!

Care to explain? I'm not sure why your saying that.
He gave the speech on July 4, 1939. Yet the day he gave the speech wasn't the "first anniversary" of the speech. The first anniversary was July 4, 1940. So July 4, 2014 is the 75th year since the speech, but only the 74th anniversary.

Or think of it like this. The anniversary of the first Super Bowl would have been Super Bowl II. Making Super Bowl 50 the 49th anniversary of the event.

You're confused. If 1939 was the "first annual speech day" or something, then yeah, this year would've been the "76th annual speech day". That's not the same as an anniversary.

1940 was the 1st anniversary of the speech, 1950 was the 11th anniversary, 2000 was the 61st anniversary, and 2014 is the 75th anniversary. There's no problem here.

1939 + 75 years = 2014. July 4, 1940 would have been the first anniversary of the speech. Meaning it's been 74 years since the first anniversary.

Frog protection?

Fraud protection.

You and I are totally on the same page. 75 years since that day, 74th anniversary, right?

"Since" and "Anniversary" essentially mean the same thing. Last year, 2013, was 20 years since the Marlins and Rockies first season making it their 20th anniversary. But it was their 21st season played.

Besides the Gherig speech was a one time thing so there can really only be an anniversary.

Those caps are brutal...but if that Jays cap has a regular panel, I'd buy it in a heartbeat. I've been wanting to buy something like that since their rebrand.
