December 10, 20187 yr My wife wore hers yesterday and I couldn't stop looking at the error. We were with other people and nobody else noticed it of course but I was sitting there with a twitch in my eye. Yeah but how often do you look at your own shirt while you're wearing it? I guess if you look at things that way, maybe it is ok to keep yours.
December 10, 20187 yr Author Yeah but how often do you look at your own shirt while you're wearing it? I'm a narcissist. I stare at myself in the mirror 95% of the day.

Yeah, I know other people wouldn't notice, but it's one of things you can't unsee once you see, and it'll be in my head.
December 10, 20187 yr Not that anyone asked, but in case anyone has wondered why a Cardinals fan is on a Marlins board, I've always had a soft spot for the Marlins. They were one of the first teams added to the league in my lifetime. I always loved teal. I've attended many ST games in Jupiter and had many conversations with Marlins fans, who have always been terrific. My in-laws live in Ft. Lauderdale 8 months out of the year, and when ST ended before I could get there, I've been able to go to Miami for a game. Add all that to the fact I'm a nerd for uniform updates/rebrands, I found this site when looking for info on the Marlins rebrand. Then I noticed some of the same people from the Creamer boards were here as well, I've stuck around. Thanks for putting up with this Cardinals fan!

I love fans like you who are fans of another team but are open to other teams and fanbases within reason. It's refreshing because sadly it isn't the norm. (I once sat in front of a Cubs fan at Marlins Park who was so thirsty but said she refused to buy a soft drink because it came in a Marlins cup... people like that... ugh) Also nice to hear how you came from the creamer boards as I was probably the one who exposed that board to this one. You're also the first Cardinals fan to be a member here who isn't an a-hole.

You're also the first Cardinals fan to be a member here who isn't an a-hole. Thanks. I can root for other teams (when they're not playing the Cards..lol). To quote my dad, "I have 2 favorite teams, the Cardinals and whoever is playing the Cubs." But honestly, even the Cubs rivalry has always been in good fun. I hate that there are other Cardinals fans out there that come across as a-holes. Most of us aren't. I really only see them online, although I'm sure there are more out there. Personally, I enjoy collecting cups from other teams when I visit a ballpark. I have cups from Kansas City, San Francisco, Chicago White Sox and of course, Miami. Still have my St. Louis/Miami cups from Spring Training as well. I just love baseball and talking with other fans, regardless of who they root for. There's enough stress in everyday life. Baseball is my happy place. I like to keep it that way.

December 10, 20187 yr Author Are there really people like that? That's crazy. She could have been exaggerating about the cup but she spent the whole game complaining about the Marlins even though she (presumably) spent money to buy Marlins tickets so all her complaining is moot unless she got in for free, she still paid the team money. She wouldn't be caught dead drinking out of a cup with a Marlins logo but she'll buy tickets to sit in Marlins Park.
December 10, 20187 yr Are there really people like that? That's crazy. There are some very odd people out there.
December 10, 20187 yr Author Got my jersey, its the white one so maybe the black one is out of stock? Those of you who got it cancelled was it also the black one?
December 10, 20187 yr So my replacement shirt came, but I haven't had a chance to open it yet to see if it's also missing the red drop shadow on the second "i". Just got my replacement T shirt. No missing I dot. However the red drop shadow is still missing. It’s ridiculous. Where are my Colores?
December 10, 20187 yr Just got my replacement T shirt. No missing I dot. However the red drop shadow is still missing. It’s ridiculous. Where are my Colores? You keeping it?
December 10, 20187 yr You keeping it? Yea. I don’t have the time or patience for that error. The i was very noticeable but this i can live with. So if you see a guy walking around Marlins Park with a missing drop shadow maybe it’s me
December 10, 20187 yr Yea. I don’t have the time or patience for that error. The i was very noticeable but this i can live with. So if you see a guy walking around Marlins Park with a missing drop shadow maybe it’s me I'll just yell out "THRILLHO" and see if you turn around.
December 10, 20187 yr I'll just yell out "THRILLHO" and see if you turn around. That’s what I had in mind
December 10, 20187 yr Author I'll just yell out "THRILLHO" and see if you turn around. If you see the missing drop shadow you'll be looking at the front of his shirt so why would he have to turn around?
December 10, 20187 yr Author As much as we're not making a fuss about it they did make a massive widespread printing error here. I'm starting to wonder if anyone got the correct design. I wonder when someone will figure this out over at Majestic.
December 11, 20187 yr Just got my replacement T shirt. No missing I dot. However the red drop shadow is still missing. It’s ridiculous. Where are my Colores? #askJeter # askSamson #beanspill
December 11, 20187 yr #FuckJeter, clearly the Marlins are working with a shitty manufacturing company to save money
December 11, 20187 yr If you see the missing drop shadow you'll be looking at the front of his shirt so why would he have to turn around? Maybe they also incorrectly printed it on the back too?
December 11, 20187 yr #FuckJeter, clearly the Marlins are working with a shitty manufacturing company to save money I'm guessing it's a legit sweatshop so that means the AC stays of to save a few bucks.
December 11, 20187 yr Update on my Lids jersey fiasco. As I said, I reordered yesterday using their 30% off code wondering if it would get cancelled (without notifying me) like the first order. I just got an email that it has shipped. While I am glad it wasn’t cancelled this time and I still got it (slightly less) discounted, it makes me even more annoyed that they cancelled the first order.
December 12, 20187 yr So, I opened the new package that came yesterday. Everyone should be happy to know - there is a Marlins shirt in the bag.
