Commercial Interruption (And How Often Do We Say That On This Blog?)

We don't have ads on this site for a reason: We don't particularly want ads on this site.

Ain't nothing stopping you, however, from getting yourself a way cool button, mug or t-shirt from the Cheese & Volleyball store. Yea, things over there are pretty much overpriced, but it's mainly because the place we use to make and process the stuff does all the work and charges dearly for it. Our markup on things is actually next-to-nothing in most instances and literally nothing in some cases.

So why bother? Basically, we just think it'd be pretty cool if we were at a tournament this fall and saw a "Respect the Cheese" button on some coach's polo shirt, a "MH when we're on offense, MB when you are" shirt used as a warmup or a parent clinging to a "Beware of flying coffee, I'm watching my team is going through hitting lines" mug. Also, since all of the merchandise conveniently has our Web address on it, having it out and about would help spread the word about the site and, in turn, promote the sport in the state. And how cool is that?

Now for the hard sell: If you order now, you'll probably have your merchandise in hand by the start of the season. So here's the link to the store again. Here's a link to the story behind the store. And here's where the commercial ends.
