From today's Uniwatchblog.com, my other obsessive internet addiction:
"The Denver Post ran an impressive package on baseball gloves the other day. There’s an article, a sidebar, a photo gallery, and a really great series of diagrams (which includes a timeline with some really amazing factoids — highly recommended). All this is courtesy of Harvey Lee."

with these "time honored" break in methods being printed in the media, we're sure that many generations will continue to ruin their perfectly good gloves and mitts :cry:

why doesn't someone do an article about the "proper" ways to condition, break in and care for a leather glove?

i guess the wild and weird gets peoples attention and sells more subscriptions?

one of these days a reporter doing a story on gloves is bound to stumble across this site and see the "right" way to take care of a glove! :D
