For one, I would have the shirt framed to ensure it doesn't get ruined in any way.  To get it authenticated, you could go to a sports memoribilia store.  BUT, do your research and find out about the dealer there.  You only want a respectable person who KNOWS what he/she is talking about.  After that, get multiple quotes.  It will help in giving you an average rather than one set price.  Realize that stores in different areas will value things differently.  You could also try to go through PSA.com, which is the leading source of getting things authenticated.  While I don't know the prices they charge for such a process, they are perhaps the best to speak to.\n\nPiece of advice:  DON'T go to eBay for prices.  Prices there are for what people are paying at the highest and not a reflection of actual values.  With alot of inflation there due to fraudulent users, prices go out of control on a daily basis.\n\nHave fun and remember one thing.  Don't be discouraged if you get a low value.  You still have a nice piece of baseball history.

The Yankees have fans?  Seriously?  No way!  Maybe bandwagon groupies but surely not fans.  A fan is loyal, knowledgable, and someone who gladly experiences the pain of the downs because he knows that will only make the ups feel that much better.  I'm sorry, but anyone I've ever met who rooted for the Yankees didn't have any of those things.  I've met a lot of wannabe fans who sport a NY hat because they think it's a status symbol or that it'll make them appear as a thug.  But a Yankees fan?  No, I'm sorry but that's nothing more than an oxymoron.  But yes, I do find these groupies to be extremely bitter people.

Yes it is good for baseball.  He is one of the greatest players to ever see the game.  And hes a good guy.  Did you hear what he did for the Lexington team?  he bought them freaking plasma screen tvs and a bunch of couches to revamp their dressing room.  Hes a good guy, a good player, and he still has it after all these years.  He  could probably go 5 years if he wanted to.

Looks like a bunch of folks here are just looking for points... \n\nThe person asking the question knows that "K" means strikeout. \n\nSo what's with the one-word answer 'strikeout'... lazy-a** people out there...\n\nYes, "K" is the official scoring symbol for strikeout, since "S" was already being used to denote a sacrifice.

Difficult - probably, although to be honest, it would probably be one of those things that you'd have to try, and then find out! I would suspect the font itself is trademarked.\n\nCopyright isn't the right word here - it's trademark or servicemark. Copyright is whether you wrote those words, trademark is the 'look and feel' of something.\n\nIn these cases it's not so much about what the words are, but whether or not you are 'passing off', or trying to make your product look like someone elses. That's why "FONY" written on something in Sony's font would be illegal. According to the Major League Baseball site, "the names, nicknames, logos, uniform designs, color combinations, and slogans designating the Major League Baseball clubs and entities, and their respective mascots, events and exhibitions" are all trade/servicemarks.

WRONG!  It's basically the same as the regular "Take me out to the ballgame" except it says root, root root for the CUBBIES instead of the home team:\n\nTake me out to the ballgame\nTake me out to the crowd\nBuy me some peanuts and cracker jacks\nI don't care If i ever get back\nFor it's root, root root for the CUBBIES\nIf they dont win it's a shame\nFor it's 1,2,3 strikes your out at the old, ball, game!\n\nLETS GET SOME RUNS!!

Yes, people do make their own signs.  I'm not sure how old the practice is, though I suspect it caught on a long time ago in Brooklyn.\n\nMost signs are still intended to encourage the team, but indeed many, especially the acronym signs, are designed to attract TV cameras.  Some are strategically placed (this is especially common with football, where a sign in the end zone will be seen on a place kick), like those "John 3:16" signs you still see.\n\nOne important subset of these signs is the Met banner, which has been a part of New York Mets life since they began.  Every year they hold a "Banner Day" contest and choose winners in several categories.  In 1969, when fans chose the 25 Greatest Mets Fans, one was a fellow named Karl Ehrhardt, who not coincidentally owned a sign-making business, and who flashed signs repeatedly from his seat behind third base for many years.  When the Mets won the World Series, they placed him and his signs in one of the cars of the motorcade when the team received a ticker-tape parade.  He could even make up signs during a game!\n\nIn the mid-1960s the Yankees, who had banned banners, were compelled to admit them by popular demand, and a number of the early ones in the bleachers had bulls-eyes on them for Mickey Mantle to hit.\n\nI still have my Met banner from 1964 (it reads LET'S GO METS), my entry in the 1969 Banner Day contest (a mural on a bedsheet titled APOLLO 11 1/2) and the Met banner I made for the team's visit to Seattle in 2005 (TOM SEAVER SAYS: "I'M GLAD I NEVER PITCHED TO ICHIRO!"  LET'S GO METS & MARINERS!).  And yes, this last was intended for the TV cameras as well as the teams and the other fans.

Dick's, Champs...  But there is a store, I forget the name though that is located right next to B. Moss and Carlton Cards.  All sports collectables, shirts, etc.  You can't miss it if you come in the Filene's entrance.  Modell's is across the street, and Sports Authority is next to Home Depot

If you can't find one online, you can easily have one custom made at a trophy/team apparel store.  My in-laws owned one, and they were always doing custom shirts for me.

Well first off I'd try looking up the person who made the shirt and contacting them directly for a supplier.  Or you could always just go ask Hop Topic and those other places.  that's about the best I can come up with man, hope that helps.

The heat won, and the fams wear all white to support the miami heat at home games. Its a promotion called "White Hot Playoffs". I say the miami heat fans have strong allegiance to their team lol.

One theory holds that "S" was already being used for or could be confused with a single, stolen base, sacrifice fly or sacrifice hit (bunt), second base, or even SS for shortstop. \n\nBut that prob'ly aint it at all. And some people do use SO for strike out The most common scoring system used today, and the one you'll find in your program, with it's diamond diagram and the positions numbered 1 for pitcher, 2 for catcher, 3 for 1st base, etc. was, according to the folks at Cooperstown, invented by one Henry Chadwick in 1874. \n\nApparently Mr Chadwick was just impressed with the harsh sound of the K in the word strike. Though I hardly ever hear that k sound from an umpire, most of them just sound like they are saying "Ssstryyyyyy!" or even just "Ryyyyyyyye!" \n\nSome people just put one K in the diamond for a strike out , some use Kc or a backwards K for a called third strike. Others put each strike in the diamond with an F for a foul strike. Some even keep a record of each pitch and where it crossed or didn't cross the plate, usually that is kept in a separate area for the pitchers stats and then compared later to the batters stats if ya wanta get that involved. They use a FK for foul strike and F for fouls after the 2nd strike. \n\nThat is way too fouled up for me. In fact I am one of those who gets fouled up by the 3 for 1st base, when I do try to score a game I use letters and numbers for the positions, 1 is firstbaseman, Cf center field, Ph pinchhitter. \n\nBut anyway that trying to keep a record of each pitch, or at least each strike, in the tiny diamond, some claim is the main evidence for another theory, the first strike was a vertical line "I", the second was the top angle line, the third the bottom angle.\n\nMaybe Old Chadwick just liked the K sound in his own name and used it, who Knows? K passa? 'K? \n\nThere kould be other theories but there is little evidence to support the theory that there are sekret Klan Konklaves goin on out there under the skoreboard.
