Lidz.

Since the dawn of time, prior to the garden, before Kanye, before Naismith, homosapiens have adorned their heads with hats. Some worn for fashion, others worn for protection, some with brims, and others without. The rest is truly up to the creativity of the hatsmith and the courage of the consumer.

Hats and caps have been the subject of art, intrigue, even band names. Here are some now type specimens for your viewing pleasure.

The crew at APT love hats. No question.

We asked a few folks at APT this morning over coffee their thoughts regarding this topic.

Roomie says...
"Hats can be (and are worn) for fashion, but I wear hats for function...to cover up from the cold or protect from the sun. So, hats worn indoors? I'm old school on this...you'd probably look better if you took off that fedora. What do you need it on inside for?? Exceptions to this rule are baseball hats (which really are for baseball players, right?) and hats on women. And if you are cold (stocking hat only).

Baron Davis says...
"Roomie's right on this. You wanna see a hat, peep this:

I like the front page swithc. Timely.

Tony Parker punked J Kidd again, and my boy Scott Pollard came out and said that he thought the trade was bad for Cleveland because Drew Gooden is much better than Ben Wallace...and he is right.
