INCENSE HOLDERS
As many of you might already know, Liquid Blue offers incense in a wide array of categories, including The Grateful Dead, Jimi Hendrix , Led Zeppelin, Fantasy, among others. What you might not know is that now we offer affordable housing for your incense. Choose from four new Incense Burners. The Tower Burners release smoke from multiple holes for a dramatic effect and the Table Burners feature semi-precious stones with hand-crafted artistry from Peru.

 
         
PHISH
For many, life is just one open-ended jam session. The music of Phish is the embodiment of that ideology. Liquid Blue is proud to salute the originality and free form musical agenda of Phish with officially licensed t-shirts and hooded sweatshirts.

 
         
LB GOLF
It used to be that Golf was perceived as a stuffy, country club sport. Liquid Blue is out to shatter that perception. Our Nassau shirt is just funky enough to distance you from the field, yet conservative enough for any course. For a slightly more casual round, our Golf t-shirts offer a lighthearted take on a game that definitely requires a sense of humor.

Have you ever wondered what kind of guy could create images that range from a docile dolphin to a skeletal motorcyclist from Hell? Meet John Connell.

John has been been illustrating award-winning T-shirts for Liquid Blue since 1987. His artistic style and innovative concepts have helped put Liquid Blue on the map. If you see a shirt that makes your eyes pop out from across the street, it's probably a Liquid Blue shirt by John Connell.

the sports sage

Discuss in our Sports Forum
Hosted by Richard Sage

Welcome to the Sports Sage, the Liquid Blue interactive sports forum.

We invite you to get involved. This will be a place to engage in healthy sport banter and debate. Think of it as your cyber sports bar, minus the beers and the hangover. Ever since we acquired licenses to produce professional sports apparel, our office has seen an endless barrage of heated exchanges involving sports. The Tom Brady/Drew Bledsoe debate comes to mind. Now it’s time for you to step up to the plate. Join us at the electronic water cooler and let’s have a go at it.

Our format will be open ended and free flowing. For example, one topic might be about what NFL team has the most intimidating fans. Would it be the Raiders, Eagles, Packers or Bears? Chime in on the worst trade in Boston Red Sox history. Was it Jeff Bagwell for Larry Anderson? Or was it Sparky Lyle for Danny Cater? Or was it Babe Ruth for money (Boston owner Harry Frazee needed the cash to finance the largely forgettable Broadway musical “No No Nannette”)? Another topic could be the ACC Conference and their shameless attempts at a hostile takeover of the Big East Conference. The ACC’s “slash and burn” brand of business etiquette makes Wall Street look like Sesame Street. Yet another topic might be the new wrinkle in Baseball’s All Star game, in which the winning league garners home field advantage in the World Series. Like it or not, it does make the game more meaningful. What do you say?

Every week, I will get the ball rolling with a short essay on such globally pertinent issues as the ones mentioned above. Feel free to respond, or come up with one of your own. The first essay will appear Monday, July 14th. As any real sports fan knows, this is one of the worst days of the year (the days directly before and after the All Star Game). There’s nothing going on besides the inane Homerun Derby and other mindless exhibitions. After months of great playoff series in the NHL and NBA, and the beginning of the Baseball season, the four major sports leagues are on sabbatical for two days. It’s enough to make you sick. But fear not. The vaunted launch of the Sports Sage will take your mind off the two day drought. Just remember, we’re all in this thing together. Stay tuned.
