Keep a look out on Ump Attire for Black Friday deals! Last I checked they had 1 Wilson Dyna-Lite Aluminum for $90 left on sale today.

I work in eCommerce so I get geeked up about this stuff and you gotta love great deals.

 

@Scott K any insider info on what will be on sale this week?

It's a heck of a deal, I am not in the market for a new one but I was almost tempted.

Is it just the 4 or 6 things? Or is there more that I am missing. Wonder if they will do a big huge thing for Cyber Monday?

Just those 6 for now, the shirts and the pads peaked my interest. Our state association has opened up to the MLB shirt but our local hasn’t made the call on changing shirts. Wish I knew so I could pick up some at a discount.

Because your local has old*, stubborn guys in it that either don’t want to pay for a new shirt, or don’t want to look like the “big league guys”. Both are sad excuses.

*= Old is an attitude, not an age

* is correct.  Same guys who will tell people how they never locked their cars or the house doors at night.   Man,  my brother locked his car doors and some guy still was able to break into the car and steal about $300 worth of 8 track tapes.  And we didn't walk 20 miles to school everyday in 100 degrees with ten feet of snow on the ground.  Oh, uphill both ways.

At the risk of a complete hijack. Some years ago my little cousin was staying over. He was rummaging through the basement and came up with box of 8 tracks and asked “uncle Rich do you have the console to play these video games”

My body says old most of the time, but my mind didn't get left in the 1970's with some romantic memories that never happened.  And I happen to think it sucks when people my age bash younger people.  Lest they forget about older people bashing us.

Now there is a topic that could hijack a thread, but I'm with you 100%. I'm on the young end of the spectrum and wish the same thing.
