    Recalling back to our why doesn't US SOCCER do some better marketing chingaderas here it is at last. Bumper stickers and US shield clings. Cheap and dirty buy a lot and pass them out.

    These are must-haves for all US soccer fans! The bumper stickers and static cling stickers are only $3, so I'll get one for each car.

    Also, the pins are only $4.76 apiece. Easy way to show support and start some soccer conversations. :)

    I'm still waiting for the freaking polo shirt so I have an acceptably business-casual article of clothing that also touts the team.

    US Soccer should just splurge and give these out at games.

    Nancy...just an idea that i've used in the past...I had an old US Soccer sweatshirt that was beat to hell. I cut out the patch, then bought a blue Nike Polo shirt. Sewed the patch on the heart, and got myself a new limited edition US Soccer shirt for only 14 or so bucks.

    Just an idea.

    Does anybody have any idea where I can find US Soccer baby clothes? My son is 7 months old and all I can ever find is generic soccer stuff like a t-shirt with a ball on it.

    I'd also be interested in baby Metros clothes if any knows about where I could find them.

    Thanks,
    Murf

    On the player T shirts, Keller but no Friedel, Armas but no Mastro, Wolff but no Reyna, Stewart but no Mathis, but anyway. Good Stuff.

    To the best of my knowledge, they do not exist. Send a message to store asking.

    I've heard that Nike needs about 6 mos to get these products produced. Hence, the WC jerseys are still not available. This seems completely ridiculous to me.

    Received a few items in the mail yesterday. Passed out a few clings to others and slapped mine too. The coin is cool too.

    Still waiting for the jerseys to be available too. Need that #2 Hejduk on the back!

    Give the Metro Front Office a call, I'm sure they have some leftover Richie Williams jersey's. They might be a bit snug on your kid though.

    While crusing around White Marsh this weekend, I spied an SUV with a bumper sticker that read "If you live here, this is your team." with the national team crest. Does anyone know anything about these? Ussoccerstore.com doesn't have them.

    I second that question

    You can always make it yourself. Buy a bumper sticker home kit (maybe a craft store? i dunno) and do it on the computer. Then throw in a USSF badge to make it look extra awesome.

    This was not a home-made job, unless the guy had a screen-printing press in his basement. The layout and font was similar to the other stickers listed on ussoccerstore.com. As much as I identify with the message, it does seem a bit hard-line for "official" merchandise.

    The USSF's merchandising stinks. The number of items available for almost any other country is mind-boggling.
