Rant : Manny Ramirez's helmet

[TimeForGuinness]

Pine tar is beautiful.

I use it to spike my hair everyday...that's how big of a fan I am.

I know I am old fashioned, but I like baseball players to wear uniforms that fit, with the stirrups socks showing. I also want them wearing a clean cap with a rounded, not flat brim, and a clean batting helmet.

How old fashioned do you mean? Because back in the day they wore some pretty baggy pants.

I understand why the players wear the baggy pants, the tight ones are uncomfortable as hell. Not so sure about the stirrups showing either.

I agree w/ the no flat brims and clean helmet though.

I hate he of the dirty helmet.

Well I don't want to see pants so tight that you can tell what brand of jock the guy's wearing; but I don't like the ones that look like you could fit another guy in there with them. To me, the stirrup socks are part of what's unique about a baseball uniform.

And back to the original thoiught, the pine tar covered helmets are just nasty-looking, as was Steve Kline's cap.

If there was pine tar-scented cologne I would wear it.

I thought this was America. You should all be ashamed of yourselves.

They were baggy back in the day, partially because the pants legs were pulled up to show the stirrup socks.

The pine tar on the helmet doesn't really bother me for some reason, but in general I agree 100%. The thing that really bothers me is the uniform not buttoned all the way up to the top. The Reyes style hat can go as well.
