Yankees will offer Murphy 5 years $100M in the offseason. lol Not some pitcher in the twilight of his career? A Cashman Special. If the Mets win it all, I don't think you'll have to worry about Cashman. If George was still alive, Cashman and Girardi would have both been gone a year ago. This is three straight years without a real playoffs. You can't count the one game playoff this year (where they layed down like dogs, anyway).

Yesterday, Cubs President of Baseball Operations, Theo Epstein, held an end of the year news conference. Among many things, he commented on the fact that the Cubs needed another quality starting pitcher or two... you think!?!  In all fairness, it was a great press conference and they basically admitted that they really didn't think they would have such a successful season. He said they were somewhat unprepared for such a deep run into postseason play and it showed. I am more of a White Sox fan than Cubs but I love both teams. It was an exciting ride and your guy's Mets whipped us fair and square... without a black cat, goat or Bartman! Congratulations!

Lou, let us know if anything is made in the USA? If they are made over seas....how would they get them here so quick? World economics - I don't get it. Let's go METS! That stuff literally costs pennies to make in overseas sweatshops, MC. As soon as the playoffs begin, a limited amount of every possible winner of each series are quickly sewn together and shipped to the U.S. immediately. The losses are negligible. Years ago my brother-in-law worked for Foot Locker. He still has shirts from 1989 that show the S.F. Giants as "World Champions." That was the earthquake World Series when they lost to the A's.

Years ago, I was watching a weekly religious news program and they were doing a story about digging wells and establishing some solid infrastructure in a remote third world country. For the life of me, I honestly can't remember where it was but several of the kids in the village had Buffalo Bills Superbowl Champions shirts. They were shown in the background shot of a man being interviewed. I remember reading somewhere that some of that preproduction swag that pizzaboy described gets donated to many charities. I'm sad that those kids are probably wearing; "Chicago Cubs National League Champions 2015" shirts today...

I imagine there are thousands of "non-winner" shirts worn third world countries....where no one will ever see them.
