infrared41 Posted July 24, 2016 Share Posted July 24, 2016 Let's keep the story in the family. Here's a link from the mothership. http://news.sportslogos.net/2016/07/23/chris-sale-gets-benched-for-cutting-up-1976-chicago-white-sox-throwbacks/ Anyway, wow. That was a pretty psycho move on Sale's part. I'm curious to see if he gets more than just being sent home tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darth Brooks Posted July 24, 2016 Share Posted July 24, 2016 Now if they had just done this with the Color Rush unis... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FGM13 Posted July 24, 2016 Share Posted July 24, 2016 I understand that those unis are gross, and I know they're probably uncomfortable to play in, but cutting them up is psycho. GO OILERS-GO BLUE JAYS-GO ESKIMOS-GO COLTS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Holmes Posted July 24, 2016 Share Posted July 24, 2016 Pitchers are kind of weird. Somehow it's shocking to me this hasn't happened before. Oh to be a fly on that clubhouse wall, though.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just the right amount to insure that he won't miss a start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas Posted July 24, 2016 Share Posted July 24, 2016 Love that guy, those jerseys are horrible, along with their 80´s red white blue unis. Sox got 3 great jerseys, stop screwing around with ugly retro´s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KittSmith_95 Posted July 24, 2016 Share Posted July 24, 2016 I get that he didn't like the jerseys, but cutting them up? That's stupid. By the way, if the White Sox do throwback, why not to the Red & Black set? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBTV Posted July 24, 2016 Share Posted July 24, 2016 Sale is my new favorite pitcher - at least until I find out something about him I don't like. That's such a big-balls move by a guy who knows he has leverage. I disagree that it was childish - it was creative. I only wish there were photos of the cut jerseys, just to see how far he took it. These are the kinds of "tales" that you hear about guys from the 40s and 50s, and everyone thinks they're charming and great (and not sure if true.) The true greatness of this move won't be appreciated for decades. I'm now pulling for him to make the HOF so that this never goes away. Bravo, Mr. Sale.

Berlin Wall Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 I'm waiting for an NBA player to cut off all unnecessary sleeves. I'm a simple person, I have a pixelated David Beckham as profile photo since 2010. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hormone Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 Doubt it would happen, but most of these are auctioned off and I bet the actual sale jersey would catch a pretty penny...shredded and all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
