The NHL Lockout is over and a lot of things are still up in the air — I’m still waiting on the updated Flyers schedule to see if I’ll be able to catch a game while I’m in town for National Pro Wrestling Day — but one thing is for sure: the NHL All-Star Game has been crumpled up and thrown in the garbage.

But hey, if you want to pretend you went to the game and watched the stars of the 2012-13 (full, uninterrupted) season go head-to-head, visit a central Ohio Dick’s.

That’s right: Columbus NHL All-Star Game swag (via Zach Ross) is still available at Dick’s Sporting Goods, selling for 50 percent off, which brings the price of your commemorative T-shirts down to $4.93. You too can own a piece of hockey history for around the same price as a 4-pack of toilet paper!

If you don’t buy it, a kid in the Sudan is going to use it to replace his NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS PERFECT SEASON swag.

There’s really no better place to get disappointing sports clothes than at Dick’s Sporting Goods. When I moved to Texas, I picked up an authentic Cliff Lee Texas Rangers jersey for like 9 dollars. That’s the only thing I can think of off the top of my head more depressing than the lockout.

So the other day I was trying to clean up my home office for once in my life, and I came to the realization that I have way too many With Leather t-shirts taking up space. Last time I tried to give some away, 5 or 6 people didn’t even bother responding, so I thought that maybe nobody likes my shirts. But then I was thinking that these shirts are indeed awesome, and people should wear them. Unfortunately, I’m not giving them away for free anymore.

Instead, I want to do something good with them. I never purchased them to profit, because that’s no fun. I bought them because I thought they’d be fun giveaways and people might wear them and other people would be like, “With Leather? That sounds like an awesome website for my fetish… aw crap, it’s sports.” Now I want to sell them, though, because my friends just got back from New York City, after they were stuck there for 5 days with no power, water and very little food. Also, I just read a story about the hospital employees that carried babies down 20 stories during Hurricane Sandy and my allergies are acting up like crazy.

For $15 you can get one of the grey With Leather t-shirts that you can clearly see in the banner image. After the jump, the rest of the details.
