Mr. Met: For the first time in eight years, Derek Jeter T-shirts are not the most popular in the New York, New Jersey, Connecticut region, said Rich Yonkers, the vice president for signature license apparel at Modell’s Sporting Goods.

I'm getting ready to introduce my own line of "David Wright Is My Domestic Partner" T-shirts soon, too. (NYT)
