G-Snarls Community Moderator Posted January 20, 2017 Posted January 20, 2017 Pretty much our standard jersey with all of the blue replaced by red. I don't mind it, at least they didn't try to come up with a whole new design and give us something way more ugly. You mean like this? http://img.bleacherreport.net/img/slides/photos/002/037/327/pirates_crop_north.jpg?w=600&h=400&q=75

Also is that Tom Glavine pitching for the Pirates? Is that a thing that happened?

Is that a thing that happened? Glavine was lefty so.. I'm thinking that's Kris Benson (based on google image search and looking at 1999 Pirates roster on BBREF)

Edit: That very picture comes up when you Google Kris Benson Pirates

We didn't end up with weird candy cane stripes or anything out of the ordinary, could be worse.
G-Snarls Community Moderator Posted January 20, 2017 Posted January 20, 2017 Kris Benson. His wife Anna Benson was pretty hot and crazy haha. She did jail time and everything! http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/mlb-big-league-stew/baseball-wife-anna-benson-gets-15-years-probation-202413615--mlb.html
Jonn Old-Timey Member Posted January 20, 2017 Posted January 20, 2017 They look great for Canada Day but I don't understand the need to wear them every Sunday home game. Probably the best Canada themed jersey they have developed though. They had a similar one a few years ago but it wasn't colour coordinated from front to back like it is this year. Great design hope they do a similar thing with the caps instead of the tacky giant maple leaf spring training ones. Those are still awful. EDIT: Damn just watched the video and they f***ed up the hats again. What is wrong with our actual hat just doing it and red and one.

KingKat Old-Timey Member Posted January 20, 2017 Posted January 20, 2017 They look great for Canada Day but I don't understand the need to wear them every Sunday home game. Canada 150 seems to be the pretext.
Governator Community Moderator Posted January 20, 2017 Posted January 20, 2017 Apparently this jersey is the worst of them http://content.sportslogos.net/news/2016/07/Chris-Sale-Throwbacks-4.png

KingKat Old-Timey Member Posted January 20, 2017 Posted January 20, 2017 Apparently this jersey is the worst of them I forget what you call the excessive use of serifs in fonts but it's a really annoying design trend. I don't even think they're called serifs when they are mid-letter like that but whatever it is, it looks foolish. The Angels are notorious offenders.
TheHurl Site Manager Posted January 20, 2017 Posted January 20, 2017 I hadn't even considered that this was a Canada 150 thing. If that was the rationale then it's weird that they didn't try to incorporate the Canada 150 logo (not that it would make me like the uni any more than I do). On the plus side, if it is a Canada 150 thing then they should theoretically only be around for one season. yeah throw a 150 on the arm or something.

FireAlexAnthopoulos Verified Member Posted January 20, 2017 Posted January 20, 2017 What on Earth was Rogers thinking? An all-red uniform for a team called the Blue Jays is just setting yourself up for mockery. Did they learn nothing from the Chargers' new logo?

G-Snarls Community Moderator Posted January 20, 2017 Posted January 20, 2017 I remember her, she was hot AF. Anna Benson stormed into the residence of her estranged husband in July, armed like she was a video-game character. She had a gun, a knife, a metal baton, a loaded ammunition belt and she wore a bulletproof vest. She broke a computer and demanded Kris Benson, the former MLB pitcher, give her $30,000. She spent the next four months in jail until Tuesday, when she pleaded guilty to charges of aggravated assault and gun possession in a Cobb County (Ga.) Superior Court. He filed for divorce in 2012, but it hasn't yet been finalized. Anna, a former stripper, famously said in 2004 that she would sleep with the whole New York Mets team if Kris ever cheated on her

I just looked this up. http://www.trbimg.com/img-588005d2/turbine/sd-goodbye-chargers-logo-20170118 It doesn't even look like it's aligned properly. This is one of the worst things ever. It's like a kid's drawing of what an actual logo is.

Rusty_Savage Verified Member Posted January 20, 2017 Posted January 20, 2017 Chargers to LA? I didn't even know about this. That looks like a poorly drawn Dodgers logo. Yeah a cross between the dodgers and Tampa Bay Lightning. They got roasted pretty good over it. I think that they actually withdrew it tbh.

fatcowxlive Old-Timey Member Posted January 20, 2017 Posted January 20, 2017 And the Raiders are moving to Las Vegas within the next couple of years. The NFL is such a joke every time I see news about them it's some controversy or a team is relocating
G-Snarls Community Moderator Posted January 20, 2017 Posted January 20, 2017 The NFL is such a joke every time I see news about them it's some controversy or a team is relocating Don't forget poor officiating impacting game outcomes and players routinely being arrested for acting like thugs
