Wrong colors

The Red Sox are wearing green tonight, I hate those things. I also hate it when I see a hat or jersey not of the color that it is supposed to be. Pink is really obnoxious, just because you are a girls doesn't give you a right to wear a pink jersey. The all white hats are up there on my list.

I don't mind different designs, but stick with the teams colors. And oh Red Sox management - burn those things after the game tonight. Classiest uniforms in baseball and they look like lepricons tonight.

Anybody remember "Turn Ahead the Clock" from 1999?

Here's a taste:
Royals: Image
Mariners: Image
Bonds: Image

And yes, Barry played with the hat backwards and the shirt untucked.

Here's the Uni Watch take on the whole debacle, including a link to a Youtube video that I'll try to embed below. It's a pretty low res sportscenter rip on the whole idea, but it shows the travesty of fashion that these teams were a part of.

The worst part was it was a corporate sponsorship deal with Century 21. "In 2021, in the 21st century, what will baseball look like?" Ass, apparently.

Oh my god. I swear I've never seen this picture before, but I must have seen a clip of it back in '99 or something, because I vividly remember a couple years ago a dream I had that I was watching a game outside of a hotel window when I was in Kansas City(for some unknown reason) and Barry Bonds was playing for the White Sox(get it? the same colors) and hit a 3 run homer in the first inning.

Creepy.
