the1gwiz 0 Report post Posted November 9, 2007 Nice, clean uni design, even if it it a knock off of the Pads' jerseys before they went with that "sand" color that to me just looks dirty :PNow if they would be so kind as to return Scott Kazmir to my Mets, then I'd be happy.

Rustpot 1 Report post Posted November 9, 2007 I can never keep Cali and Florida cities straight. SoCal and FLorida are close enough, bunch of crazy warm people jazzing with team names, like that will bring more fans or something.What's the point of name changes like that? I know the Ducks dropped "Mighty" after Disney pulled out to try and no longer identify themselves as Team Disney... and the change (and solely the name change) got them the cup, so it worked I guess :P.

Viking 1 Report post Posted November 14, 2007 Pathetic. The logo looks like it's for some sort of charity that donates pencils to schools in the ghetto or something with that big retarded sunshine on it. The hats look like they were a stock design from a kiosk at the mall that will print your initials on whatever you want. The worst thing about this is that their old uniforms were kind of okay. This is still better than that purple/rainbow shit that they started with, but not by a lot. The dark green that they had before was a smart uniform decision - the one thing a baseball team can do to distinguish itself is to not have blue, and/or red uniforms, and now there's one fewer such team. Navy blue - what a bold statement. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
