Opinions? I'm not sure if I like it or not yet. I wear a hat pretty much all day, so this in a very shallow way is important to me.

Those are my criteria to a T. I'm terrified by how you knew my head was so big though.

It's a little shiny (you can't tell from the pics), which kind of bugs me. I've just got to wear it in a bit, I guess.

I'd post a pic of my new Pistons hat, but I can't find one that matches.

All I know is that shithole Palace Lockerroom at the Star Southfield doesn't have a lot of merchandise. You want the goods, you gotta go to the game.

Fuck that place. Chef herm gives it a one afro rating. Service was non-existant, foot was crap, prices too high, lockerroom empty and it wasn't even the playoffs yet.

Yeah, what MOLA said. Only send it to me not him. And if you're sending the WBCB in there, make sure you over night it in a cooler with the hat on top. Thanks.

I don't like the blue. If you are latino though, you will look pimp wearing it with a white jump suit (especially if you are stocky and squat and wear it low).

I'm more of a primary colors man when it comes to hats.

And Denny ... when my daughter gets older I want to send her to your house to gleen some of your awesomeness off you. Those gifs are insane!

Good call, I was talking more the shade with the primary color statement. This one's like a metalic powder blue or even a bit pastel-ish. I like the solid tonal colors.

I had a yellow Michigan hat that looked sweet with a grey shirt and some deep blue jeans. Though with yellow, its hard to find a good shade as too bright looks flamboyant and too meak leaches the color out of an outfit (Hey some people make sigs some people are in to fashion). If I could find some place bellow the waist line to throw in a little yellow to set it off it looked incredible (for a hat anyway).

I once ripped the brim off a rather expensive black wool Michigan hat. It looked pretty good though it had a little over-sized yamaka / mickey mouse club minus the ears, tinge to it. I wore it for a while and then gave it to a girl who liked it.

Oh I see. That's pretty fucking awesome.

I've never heard of anyone ripping the brim off. My friend's broken them by trying to touch the ends together, but that's new.

Also, if anyone has a smaller head, there are tons of sweet fitted NCAA caps on clearance at lids.com for 3 for $15 but most of the sizes are under 7.

Bing that 7 year olds wear a bigger hat size than me, if you said pro teams, i'd be all over that like white on rice.

As most of you know, I was rocking this hat starting in early January and for most of the first half of the Tigers' season:

http://images.hatworld.com/product/5/20013783/1_640.jpg

Inexplicably (I should know better) I switched back to this cap from last year in early August, right around the start of the slump:

I finally wised up in late September and picked up this bad boy, which I've been successfully rocking for the playoffs so far. I'm sure you'll all agree it's dope as hell:

My question for you all is this: Now that we're on to the World Series, which hat should I wear? Should I stick with the Playoff hat? Go back to the green? Pick up a new hat altogether?? Thank you in advance for your kind input.

Grey. Kind of reminds me of the old road jerseys.

Vinny

Just picked this up super cheap off E-Bay. Actually, I picked up 2, one a 7 5/8 and one a 7 3/4. I'm usually a 7 3/4 in New Era hats but this Reebok 7 3/4's pretty damn big, a little too big. If anyone wants it and hasa giant head, I'll mail it to them pretty cheap or you can pick it up in the Chi. If nothing else we can give it away in an Alpaca contest or something.

Vinny, that would make a nice vBookie (now known as "Sportsbook") contest prize, let me know what you want for it.

Vinny

Sorry, gave it to some drunk guy in a Laimbeer jersey on Saturday. The thing's so damn big, when I saw someone in Piston's gear with with a big enough head for it, I figured I should make sure it had a good home.

There's usually all kinds of cheap stuff on e-bay if you're willing to spend out of pocket for something, though. This is a bad example 'cause of the price, but one of us should definitely buy this:
