Hi everyone,

This thread will be dedicated to helping everyone get their sites ready for upcoming "hot markets"... (NBA Championships, NFL draft. etc...)

Having your site ready when a new champion is crowned, etc... will do wonders!

Thanks...

when do college football jerseys get hot - and for how long?

College football gear gets hot mid-August with the season kicking off August 28th and stays hot all the way through the final bowl game (January)

we currently cover 345 college teams!!! so we should have every college sports fan covered...

All-Star Gear is HOTTTTTTTTTT!!!!!!! This is the last time an All-Star game will be played in Yankee stadium.

"The cathedral of baseball has a date with bulldozers at the end of this season before the new Yankee Stadium (ugh) opens in 2009.

That means next week's All-Star game sets up as a kind of Final Viewing, and, like any good funeral, grievers will be trying to slide a wristwatch or a set of cufflinks off the corpse on the way by."

Games start 8/8/08... I haven't seen to much promotion out there by affiliates, so the market is ripe.

Sales have picked up this last week and expected to grow throughout the games.

For only the second time in the regular season -- and third time overall --the University of Georgia will wear black during a regular-season football game.

Georgia coach Mark Richt said in a news conference Sunday that, at the request of his seniors, the Bulldogs will wear black instead of the traditional red against Alabama in a matchup of top-10 teams.

This is a great opportunity to move some UG gear!
