There are starting to be more and more rumblings about the potential for live sports to be returning this coming summer and fall. As Philly sports fans, you love to hear it.
With baseball rumored to maybe get the season underway in July and the NFL moving ahead as scheduled, it's probably a good time to show support for your Philly teams with a team-branded face mask.
The CDC recommends wearing them in public to help protect against coronvirus and COVID-19, and our own Mayor Jim Kenney feels quite strongly about it.
"Young people for some reason or another refuse to put the mask on. ... These young folks don’t think of their parents or their grandparents or themselves when they do this," Kenney said last week. "Just think about what nurses and doctors and hospital personnel have to go through every day, and just put on the damn mask."
So put on a mask, will ya?! And if you want to show support for your favorite Philly team while doing it, now you can. No matter which sports is your favorite.
The Sixers were one of the first Philly teams to have masks available for purchase with a charity component. You can pick up multiple Sixers designs here.

The Eagles now offer a three pack in both adult and youth sizes as well as a simple white mask with an Eagles logo in both adult and youth.
The Flyers offer a similar three pack in adult and youth sizes with the classic Flyers logo in three different designs. Hopefully they're working on some Gritty-inspired facewear next.
The Phillies' three pack features the classic Liberty Bell logo alongside the 'P' in only adult sizes currently. We're keeping our eyes peeled for some Phanatic-inspired masks as well.
And hey, we won't forget the local soccer club. You can rock a Philadelphia Union face mask if you'd like as well, available here in large and small.
Those are just the officially licensed masks. There's a whole new world of do-it-yourself style masks if you search on Etsy.
