MLB Hat Designs Based Off of Marvel Character's Costumes and Hometowns

I was bored this morning. That's how a lot of things start. I was looking at hats on New Era's website and realized that they have a place where you can design your own hats. Here's the link: newerabyyou.com

As I was going through different teams and designs, I wondered if they had any superhero logos that I could throw on to one of the designs? They did, but it was only Batman and Superman. I wanted more, so I decided to research Marvel hero's hometowns. I didn't have to search long because somebody already put together a full map. Here's the link: http://www.mtv.com/news/1856402/marvel-characters-hometown-map/

I ended up designing close to 30 hats based off of the Marvel character's hometown team and the colors and characteristics of each hero. Be forewarned that there are A LOT of New York hats, but you can't blame me for Stan Lee thinking superheroes are only born in New York City. Also be forewarned that the design options are fairly limited, so I couldn't add webbing to Spidey's design, or claw slashes to Wolverine's. I used the closest MLB team to the hero's hometown when they weren't in the actual MLB city or even state.

    It'd be awesome to see an SF Giants hat themed around Avalanche!

    You can go here: newerabyyou.com, but you'll have to design them yourself.

Colorado Rockies' All-Time Greatest Position Players

Here's my attempt to list the greatest Colorado Rockies players of all-time by position. I took into consideration a player's offensive production, defensive capabilities, and tenure with the Rockies. Let's get this Blake Street party started! C, Chris Iannetta Colorado hasn't had a premier Catcher for more than a season or two at a time, but Chris Iannetta finds himself as the Rockies' All-Time greatest catcher based off of his tenure and semi-decent productivity. He leads all Rockies catchers in Hits (336), Home Runs (63), RBI (236), Walks (241), and he's 10th All-Time (any position) in Rockies' history with a .357 OBP. His high On-Base% is due to him being a magnet for pitches, being hit by 40 pitches while with the Rockies. He never blossomed into the catcher the Rockies hoped for, but hopefully he'll find more success with the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim. Runner-Up: Yorvit Torrealba Torrealba brought a contagious energy to the Rockies...

The year is 1986. Ronald Reagan is the President of the United States of America, with George Bush Sr. as Vice President. The average price for a gallon of gasoline is $0.93, and the population of the United States is 240 million people. The top grossing movie is Top Gun, and the lead actor, Tom Cruise, is an up-and-coming actor with Catholic beliefs. There are 26 major league baseball teams, with the best team being the New York Mets. Fast forward to the year 2012. Since 1986, we've had a total of 12 years with a Bush as President. Gas prices have gone up $3.00 per gallon, and we've added 72 million people to the U.S. population. Top Gun is now considered a cult classic, and Tom Cruise is now a Scientologist who enjoys making Mission Impossible sequels, which there are three of now. There are now 30 major league baseball teams, with the worst team being the New York Mets. Jamie Moyer's Rookie Card A lot has changed since 1986, but there is at least one thing that r...
