Baseball Cap Wearer / New York Yankees Fan
« on: July 24, 2010, 11:28:43 AM »
I have always been a New York Yankees fan and I have always worn a Yankees ball cap. I wore my Yankees cap even when I live in Boston for 4 years which caused several confrontations 2 of which turned physical, and that was not good for the injured Red Sox fans that started it. lol

I have worn my cap always and have many photographs throughout the years of me sporting my NYY caps. I didn't start losing the hair on my crown until my mid to late 30's so I was not wearing caps to cover up. I have many wool fitted caps from the years that the Yankees have won the World Series and just cheap old everyday caps that I wear to cover morning hair to go to the store without having to do my hair.

Now that I have gone Sly I don't like wearing a cap, but I want to. I don't like the way it feels with stubble, because I like my hat to fit somewhat tight. I don't like the way it looks with a Sly dome either. The only time that I like to wear a hat now is when I workout, and I have to wear it loose and I wear it to trap sweat because I don't have hair to prevent all the sweat from dripping into my eyes.

I miss wearing my New York Yankees caps! I'm hoping as my scalp gets more used to being Sly, so that it will change the way a cap feels on my head.

None of my hats fit the right way anymore.  I like them tight as well and all my ball caps are fitted - no hair=loose fit

I still wear hats a lot.  I would say about half the time I go out I wear my White Sox fitted hat.  Usually I wear a 7 1/4 and it would fit perfectly but now that I shaved my head I have to soak it in hot water for a couple seconds then throw it in the dryer.  It comes out perfect for me every time.

NYY cap bad (Red Sux fan just as bad).

Carefully crafted and heavily sprayed combovers don't work w/ hats, so I never got too much into hats.  Now, I can but I don't like the feel of most hats--they are for the most part rough, and they make my dome sweat--not nice.  Only wear them when I'm in the sun for a long time.  I own some, the Saints' Superbowl, and the like--just don't like the feel.  Beanies in the winter work, except they slip up on a freshly scraped grape.

Switch to a Cardinals cap and you should be fine. O0  But seriously, I have quit wearing wool caps.  I tend to get cotton caps from these guys.  http://www.nineteen47.com/

I've worn a BB cap of sorts for years  --  OK decades.   The one below might give you an idea of the type and style.
                      But
The St. Louis Cardinal cap that has just the single Cardinal on the bat, is pretty cool, but when I don't wear the one below, I have a wool Cleveland Indians cap that I like.  I'm not an Indians fan, but I think the cap is the best one in all of baseball.  Nothing says Cleveland Indians more than that cap. 

Yes, I have a Yankees cap too, but I only wear it around here to P - - - people off, and maybe confuse them a little.

Couldn't say it better myself, I loved the spanking the A's gave the White Sox today and Kojak I'm sorry that hear that your a Yankee's fan.

Did I mention I love the A's.

......and the Cubs.

Nice tip, I have not even tried my fitted caps yet, I mostly wear my relaxed fit adjustable caps.

Baseball cap fine.

I knew I would find the Yankees haters, lol.

You should take a trip to Boston and wear the Yankees cap around, talk about piss some people off! I did that for 4 years, lol.

I have a White Sox cap!

The point isn't the team in the original post :) The feel of a cap on stubble doesn't agree with me yet and because I like to wear them tight it isn't so nice when you take the cap off and pull it ATG, ouch.
