DEAR EDITOR - A Richardson does a disservice to millions of Americans by claiming they are yobs.

I can only think he or she is an older person who has a dislike of baseball caps.

I am fifty-two years old and sometimes wear a baseball cap - does this make me a yob?

Until makers can come up with a new design of headgear, the baseball cap has lasted since baseball started in the 1900's.
