Spring training is in full gear and the Houston Astros are already feeling the sting of their cheating scandal by being booed at their first spring training game against the Washington Nationals on Saturday, February 22nd.

As they took to the field, so did the roar of the crowds booing. One fan took it a step further by holding up a sign with a derogatory message which was eventually confiscated. The Astros have fast become the bad boys of the MLB and fans across the globe are letting their feelings known with some players even receiving death threats and ill wishes against their family. There's even a petition to have their 2017 World Series Championship revoked.

Die-hard Astros fans Nicholas and Chelsea Drago from Los Angeles have come together to sell the shirts through their online store hate-us-shirts.myshopify.com. The shirts are going for $26 and have already sold out! But don't worry, you can pre-order yours in time for the regular season here.

The creators, formerly from Houston, promise they are "good, honest folks from Texas that won't do y'all wrong." Nick Drago shared the message doesn't condone hate but is meant to inspire the heart and spirit they admire in the people of Houston coming together in the face of adversity. "Love us or hate us we are going to be here and support our team. At the end of the day we will be champions again."

Chelsea Drago went on to share the idea for the slogan stemmed from the negative vibes they would get wearing their Astros gear in L.A. "We saw this as an opportunity to embrace the new season and new opportunities ahead for the team."

Future slogans are in the works the couple shared, but for now you can follow them on their Instagram account at h8usshirts.
