HELP!!! Nomar Garciaparra Boston Red Sox Jersey??? |
Lead | |
|
My brother Matt just sent me an email and said his son Charlie, who is going to be 11 in a few weeks, is DYING (as only soon-to-be-11-year-olds can die) for a WHITE (i.e. Home?) Nomar Garciaparra Boston Red Sox Jersey and did I think I could find one around here.

Try www.redsox.com or www.mlb.com - they have team jerseys and hats, etc. in the store. Nomar might be a little more challenging to come by - he's one of the more popular players with the younger kids. Olympia Sports at the mall or Bob's Store may have them if you want to go to a store. Of course, if you want to go to a store, Fenway Pahk has a HUGE store with lots of Nomah jerseys.

He tried the on-line sources but couldn't get delivery for several weeks. I'll try calling the sports stores or the one at Fenway Park.

Don't ya'll have a "Red Sox Store" up there? We've got "Braves Stores" in all the major malls.
Wassamatta with you guys? Don't you know how to market your team? |

Try this:
mvp.com/family/index.jsp?...geBucket=0 As long as you can get over the sticker shock - $65 bucks for a kids' jersey! I am kicking myself for getting rid of my Calvin Schiraldi jersey from 1986!! I had no idea how much these things cost! Jack, I'll bet a store like that would do very well, as long as the team did. With the prices that malls charge for retail space, and with the fans being so cyclical it would be a losing venture but once every... 86 years or so. |

I checked that but it said it wouldn't be shipped for 9 to 12 full business days - in other words 2-3 weeks....

'fans being so cyclical'--WOB
You think Red Sox fans are cyclical? Hooo boy! You must be a relatively new fan, Wobby. RED SOX NATION has existed for generations! Fenway Park attendance breaks records despite the fact that the 'lyric little bandbox' (Updike) holds only 35,500 fans. Ever try getting a ticket?Are LOTTERIES necessary for cyclical fans? And this year is not an anomaly. It's always been hard to get Sox tickets. Red Sox fans are among THE most loyal in the country. Their following has spread throughout the country and beyond. I just read that Red Sox merchandise is second only to the Yankees in worldwide sales. Please don't just toss out random fallacies about the Red Sox. Marketing of their team, Jackalope? lololol They have one of the shrewdest and market-savvy staffs in all of baseball. How else can they afford the second-highest payroll? You think we'd pay the HIGHEST ticket prices in MLB if the team wasn't worth it? Thank you . Rant over. |

Did you read that I had a Calvin Schiraldi shirt from 1986? That wouldn't be considered a "new" fan. I am just making an observation, much like when the Pats weren't doing very well, the stands were not quite so full. When they are doing well, everyone jumps on the bandwagon. Sure, we have the loyal, die-hards, but you also have those people who will start cheering when it's in vogue - kind of like going to church only on Easter and Christmas. They'll only do it when it's good for them. And those are the times when you can't get a crappy t-shirt online for 8 weeks.
That said, what do you think, Backshore about them having 7 players whose contracts are up at the end of the season, including Lowe, Pedro, Varitek, Damon, and others? I'm a little nervous about next season if we don't keep those guys on the roster. |

CAA, I just got an email from MLB.com saying that because "I'm such a loyal customer," (I ordered a hat last year for my boyfriend) they are giving me a 15% discount with my next order. So, if you don't have any luck elsewhere, you are more than welcome to use my 15%, if you don't mind the little extra wait for shipping.

CAA they have them on sale right now for delivery on your favorite site EBAY, and at very good prices, they have youth S,M,L. You could have it in a couple of days if you wanted via EBAY. Hope this helps, if not please let me know, I hate when this kind of stuff happens to kids and I personally will find you a jersey if you do not have any luck on ebay but please give it a look

Glad to hear CAA, it breaks my heart when kids really want something so bad and they can't get it (within reason of course). Hope this makes his day!!!! I wanted a Bruins jersey when I was young and never got it and I thought my life was going to end, kids see this as a severe blow and I know what it's like so hope he enjoys it.

Charlie's a really sweet kid and a good little athlete, too. Matt was so darn happy when I called to tell him I was picking it up tonight.

of course now that you have the shirt it will probably take 2-3 weeks to mail it to him.
