Hey. Look at this!
A passion for vintage England football shirts prompted brothers Doug and Gary Bierton and their pal Matt Dale to max out their credit cards to sell jerseys. Fueled by a global fashion craze, Classic Football Shirts is a $50 million company.

Bettinelli is popular in the dressing room, he shouldn’t be sold.

The way @jefffluhr tells the @StubHub story is how I remember it from @eBay side. It’s a travesty for Jeff and rest of his team from 2000 to 2007 to not be part of public history of the business now being retold in their IPO S-1. Shame on those involved.

I promised to stay off this site. But damn. Fuck. Feel so bad for so many friends who have been impacted by the fires. The family's. The kids. We are in the Santa Monica warning zone. Eerily calm here right now. Just awful.

The AI revolution is transforming American industry & society in ways that we don’t even know. We’ve got to get these tech titans in line, following President Trump’s lead to ensure these tech investments are being made here at home.

Vintage soccer jerseys have become a streetwear staple, and a target of major investors. Their real appeal lies in the memories they conjure.

Super excited to announce my investment in @classicshirts alongside @alexmorgan13 and @RMcElhenney! I've long been a collector of football jerseys, dating all the way back to my early childhood! Looking forward to being a part of their continued growth in North America!

Well. For a non blue check this take blew up. And I 100% stand behind it. FTR I posted this before game got out of hand and obviously the play on pitch was worse than the Hamptons look of the broadcast crew. 99% of people with real jobs couldn’t wear these clothes to work.

Dear #TNTSports and #USMNT. This is our country’s national men’s soccer team. Please show some respect and class and at least dress your announcing team professionally. Candidly, a totally embarrassment.
