Frank Kozik's Monger Toys

This guy Frank Kozik does some awesome artwork with little toys smoking cigarettes. He calls them Mongers. Not exactly a great message to send to kids, but I am sure they are intended for adults. I tried to find some website for this guy, but all I could really find on him is his myspace. Check it out here.



I love grenades.



Pick up Sarge here.

New Era 59FIFTY NHL hats....

Most of the posts on here have to do with baseball or football teams, but don't think that I have slept on some of those classic NHL hockey logos. Some of these teams no longer exist, but their logos will never die.

I also like the colors for some of these older 1980's teams. The teams today rarely have the beautiful color schemes that they used to have back in the day.

First up, the classic... Hartford Whalers. This is the hat that motivated me to do this post. This simple logo brings a smile to my face. I realize that some people might say blue and green don't really match too well, but I don't give a shit, the hat looks nice to me...






If you know anything about hockey then you know that the Edmonton Oilers were the best franchise in all of hockey in the 1980s. Somehow they not only landed the great one, Wayne Gretzky, but they also acquired a boatload of more Hall of Famers. The team's ability has nothing to do with their logo, I just think that this blue and orange is nice and you can't go wrong with a team that has a few Stanley Cups in their back pocket...





Minnesota North Stars...the eternally classic green and yellow. If you are ever lost in the wilderness, look for the the brightest star in the sky. Start walking that direction. It will take you to the North Star in the Alpha Centauri galaxy...





Last up, Buffalo Sabres. I almost skipped this one, but the fact that the Buffalo has those red eyes... I had to throw it in. I like that shade of blue that they use. A simple classic logo. I would buy a hamburger from this franchise if they were available.

Baseball hats with the football colors...

This is a new collection of hats put out by New Era. These 59Fifty MLB FB Twisted hats feature baseball team logos with the football team's colors.

Incredible idea... first up is the Tampa Bay Rays twisted with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. This is nice because it has that creamsicle color scheme that you either love or hate...








What do you think of this Minnesota Twins with the Minnesota Vikings? Are you getting it now?





This Detroit Tigers and Lions mashup is nice, too....





Philadelphia Eagles and Phillies....





Check out the rest of the collection here. I wish these hats were around when I was a kid when I had that disposable income to throw around... Enjoy.

MLB hats x Plaid

We all know that flannels with the plaid pattern are back in a major way right now. What better way to compliment your look than with a matching hat from lids.com? Twins '47 released this incredible assortment of hats called the Collision MLB Franchise.

This Pirates hat especially caught my eye. It has that Bumblebee - Warning - type of look to it with that timeless black and yellow combination. Classy!





This Pirates hat also reminds me of a previous post I did on an Ohio State argyle pattern hat. Check out that post here. Twins Enterprises continues to do it correct...
