why the company that makes these jerseys sees enough demand for XXL but
can't produce a small.

Have you already considered the numbers that go along with those sizes?

Only in Loompaland is an XXL a 43-44 in men's sizes.

There is certainly enough demand in the catalog
market since the closeouts at Nashbar and Performance are often sold
out of small before any other size.

Hm...when I shop closeouts too late, the only sizes left are usually the
S or XS.

Jobst,

Oops, it is Cardinal (color), not Cardinals (birds). Rather strange to
name the team after a color and then use a tree as a mascot. Silly
sods.

Yes Stanford used to be called the Stanford Indians, guess the Native
Americans of the Stanford Community wanted the change. I thought they would
be proud to keep the name since there is the Florida State Seminoles, or the
Atlanta Braves formally the Milwaukee Braves, and the Washington Redskins.
Stanford does have a T-shirt: "It's the Color, not the Bird." Not sure if I
fully accepted the name the Cardinals, I still refer to the school as "The
Farm"
There is a Stanford cycling team jersey, don't see as many as I used to. It
is a very loud Cardinal red and white. Where are my shades?

It's "cardinal", singular. Named after a color, not a flock of birds
or religious types.

I voted for Robber Barrons, which got the most votes by students. We
were overruled.

You shouldn't, because that's not the name (and never has
been).

Thanks,

Just what I need to go with my tear drop shaped red reflecting goggles
and streamlined (long tail) helmet. The color would also complement
my black carbon bicycle and Rolf wheels with their dark red tires.

I see Fabrizio Mazzoleni finally got to Jobst Brandt.

I've heard blue tires are faster and more "supple" feeling, yet more
durable.

So look for blue.

Naw, we now have published research saying red wins more often.
