Is there anything wrong with the shirt? No.
Should MLB be putting them out? No.
If teams or local marketers want to put these kinds of things out, fine. MLB shouldn't be putting out products that denigrate any of their teams. Their job is to remain above the fray when it comes to rivalries and such. That's my two cents.

BJ said it right.
Do you think any fans would care if it was a local fan or supplier that was putting them out?
The same would be said about "Yankees Suck" T-shirts...if MLB was putting their name on it...NYawkers would be up in arms also (and rightfully so).
MLB should be about good sportsmanship...having a shirt that degrades another team is adding fuel to the fire.
(And, for your info...Yankees Suck Tshirts are not allowed in Fenway...they make you turn them inside out before you enter.)

Couldn't have said it better, Wilt Dasney. MLB should have known better before doing something that stupid.Wilt Dasney said:Is there anything wrong with the shirt? No.

BTW, this is from a Braves fan that will never see his team in a league championship series again.

So they can turn them right-side out after you get through the gates? :lookarounWDWFREAK53 said:
It's all in good fun, right? No one takes this stuff seriously, do they? :animwink:

If security sees you with one on they also make you turn it inside out inside the park. So, yes, you could keep turning it back and forth...but it gets old after a while.
Yep, it's all in good fun, and I actually enjoy seeing some Sox-bashing shirts on Yanks fans...because some are really good! It keeps the "rivalry" (only in quotes because it's about as much of a rivalry that a hammer and nail has) light and fun

Exactly. If you want to buy a shirt like that, get it from one of the vendors outside the stadium. (ps- I own a cubs suck shirt, cubs magic Number...911..shirt.) it is all in good fun, but MLB shouldn't put that kind of stuff out.
Just like Ab&Fitch shouldn't put out some of the shirts they do either. Same principle. You are trying to sell one shirt to a very small portion of your market by insulting another part of your market. not good business.
