ltjets21 Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 I didn't know if there was a thread for this but when did the ring ceremony uniforms start in the MLB and NBA? I noticed there were some gaps as well such as the yankees and the spurs. I also have seen some international soccer teams with gold on their uniforms after a tournament win. Also some old school "World Champions" jerseys such as the 1905 Giants. Feel free to post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben in LA Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 I'd assume the Giants revived this after they won their first title in San Francisco, but I could be wrong. As a Dodgers fan, I hate the team, but I love those jerseys. Same when the Red Sox and Royals did it. I wouldn't mind seeing a gold-trimmed Dodgers jersey...but the way they're playing, it won't be happening any time soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrianLion Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 Phillies had gold trim on their uniforms to start the 2009 season to celebrate their championship, although they didn't wear this for their ring ceremony later that year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJWalker45 Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 NFL teams have done this as well with a modified Super Bowl patch for the banner raising ceremony. No gold or anything added to the uniform though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ltjets21 Posted June 28, 2016 Author Share Posted June 28, 2016 You can vaguely see the gold outline and trophy on the mavs jersey here. I do not know whether or not they started this tradition in the nba but I believe they did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fox Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 Celtics had gold trimmed uniforms on opening night 2008 and the Red Sox had gold trimmed uniforms for their home openers in 2005 as well as 2014. I do not, however, recall a gold-trimmed uni for the Sox in 2008. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strange that they wore their alts for such an important event. I personally prefer the alternates to the pinstripes, but for things like this you wear your regular uniform.

BC985 Posted June 29, 2016 Share Posted June 29, 2016 I think the Red Sox were the first ones to do it in baseball in 2005. Just for the record, the Cardinals wore gold-themed uniforms in 2007 and 2012 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only in the past couple of years have they worn their standard pins for Opening Day, even.

VDizzle12 Posted June 29, 2016 Share Posted June 29, 2016 I really hope the Cavs don't do this. Just because they would use the black sleeved jerseys. Imagine those jerseys with vegas gold replacing the yellow gold. Terrible. But adding vegas gold outlines to the home whites would look amazing.

That is their regular day uniform (before the red ones came around) Yeah, they even wore it in the playoffs when it fit with the schedule, which brings up a question: When an "alt" has a designated time to be worn, and that schedule is never deviated from, is it really an alt? Now that they wear the pins for opening day, and introduced that pointless red jersey, the point is moot, but how about for those years where the cream uniform was the daytime uniform period?

Germanshepherd Posted June 30, 2016 Share Posted June 30, 2016 I thought the Heat's uniforms looked awesome. I wouldn't mind at all if they put more emphasis on yellow and looked like this full time. i have unquantifiable corpses on my conscience Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
