And should I bother with the bullpen jacket?

It seems really warm, but the price ($119.99) seems steep. Opinions?

great jacket man. i have a seattle, very warm and comfy. the logo usually has that nice shiny stitching too.

Anyone got a coupon code for MLB shop? I wanna cop a jacket and shirt but I don't wanna spend $100 right now.

I dont know how close you guys are to San Leandro, but I highly recommend checking out West Coast Sporting Goods. They have a bunch of good gear, and their NewEra's are only $20. I bought latest dugout A's jacket from there a few years back for $40. I don't know if they have the new jackets, but it'sdefinitely worth checking out.

Yeah I copped a dugout jacket from there also for $40. Do they have the fleece (or the therma base? or whatever it is

) on the inside of the jacket nowtho? When I copped mine it didn't, but $40 is a great price. I want that new dugout jacket, but I already have 3 off the older ones (all different), so Idon't wanna drop anymore dough on it.

#%!! I got like 10 A's jackets but I just couldn't resist...

anyone have a personlized A's jersey? pics?

smokey1212 · Apr 12, 2009

Sick! I didn't know we had one of these threads goin on! Didn't think there were enough of us on NT.

These LOBs are crushing us. Also, Ryan Sweeney is a savage.

49ers650 · Apr 12, 2009

RIP No Hitter. 6 innings was nice

eagle 0n · Apr 12, 2009

Terrible homestand so far

Doesn't get much easier with an angry BoSox team coming to town.

Johnny_Cakes · Apr 12, 2009

An angry Red Sox team, ey?

Let's show them how angry WE can get!

eagle 0n · Apr 13, 2009

Finally, got some runs (and a HR)

Nice 1,2,3 inning from Braden.

eagle 0n · Apr 13, 2009

Nice win tonight to stop the losing streak

Giambi showing some wheels

I hate Red Sox fans, most of them still got the price tags on their apparel when they go to the Coliseum.

They are so annoying.

Worse than Yankee fans, because atleast the Yankees have a reason to have so many fans.

We need to do an NT Summit on a $2 ticket day, by the way.

GreenNGold89 · Apr 13, 2009

Chavez is day-to-day...here we go again (word to DMX)

Anyways, I didn't see today's game, but good win.

Braden with a solid outing.

eagle 0n · Apr 14, 2009

Aiight, I already give up on Eveland

Let's bring Mazzaro up already. We have too many lefties in the starting rotation.

edit:
Nice 5-Run 1st inning

after the BoSox score 3.
Eveland better not %$## this up.

GreenNGold89 · Apr 14, 2009

WOW

Kind of reminds me of the walk off bunt for some reason

eagle 0n · Apr 14, 2009

Suzuki batting w/ the bases loaded =

...
Yah, that kid Bailey's been doin work

Travis Buck with a good game

Normar left the game early, hope its not too serious.

Bullpen's been working OT these first few games.

GreenNGold89 · Apr 14, 2009

Oh yeah, and this kid Bailey looks real NICE.

49ers650 · Apr 14, 2009

Suzuki had a grand slam against the Angels last year.

They finally lost, it was 2 AM Boston time

tbone95860 · Apr 14, 2009

Thanks A's!!!

I really don't have any beef with Kurt. He's been a good player for the A's. Just being overtly critical, I suppose.

But damn, he's been terrible with the bases loaded this year.

I'm a fan of Kurt, but does he even have a hit with RISP this year yet? I think he's like 0-9 or something. He's a solid bat, he just needs torelax. I think he's putting a lot of pressure on himself right now.

Johnny_Cakes · Apr 14, 2009

YES!

Let's finish them off tomorrow, and hopefully Garciaparra is doing fine.

We'll need him and Chavez to come back if we want to keep looking this good in the beginning of the season.
