keynote Posted December 15, 2004 Author Share Posted December 15, 2004 they used to wear orange? heh, go figure. i need to check ssur more often Yeah, I had seen old pics of these unis, but I had always thought that they were really red (and that the pics had just faded). They wore these back when Earl "the Pearl" played for the Bullets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hormone Posted December 15, 2004 Share Posted December 15, 2004 I don't follow the NBA so don't shoot me. I think slowly the NBA is running into the problem the NHL had a few years back (and what the NFL has) as to not establishing a home and away standard for the jersey colors. I saw the Mavs wear their alt at home so the away team was forced to wear home whites. I remember the Cavs doing it for the first game that Carmello faced LeBron. For some reason that irks me. Why not do what the NHL did and make color the home so you can unveil all the alts. that you want and teams don't have to travel with both sets of unis? The NFL is just totally out of whack for me to even write about right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The NFL is just totally out of whack for me to even write about right now. the nfl should make it manditory that teams wear the colored jerseys at home and the whites on the road. obviously it will upset the redskins and the cowboys since they only wear white home and away. i like what the nhl did and making it manditory that teams wear color at home and white on the road.

Why is that really a problem? Not to hijack a thread or anything, but only a couple of teams do it, and the reasons they do are kind of funny. I see nothing wrong.

The NFL is just totally out of whack for me to even write about right now. mostly, they just wanna show off their new duds to the home crowd. if it's deemed light enough, the visitors have worn their darks anyway (case in point-Suns vs Kings one time). I sort of wish 1) someone other than the Lakers would get a white alternate, and 2) someone other than the Lakers would be allowed to wear a non-white home uniform A strong mind gets high off success, a weak mind gets high off bull Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColeJ Posted December 16, 2004 Share Posted December 16, 2004 there's a lot more parts to a hockey uniform than to a basketball uniform.it's no problem carrying 3 sets of jerseys to a basketball road trip, because there's no matching socks, matching helmets, etc. just a jersey (which isn't unlike what some players wear as undershirts) and some shorts.i don't see a problem with this in the NFL or NBA.

The_Admiral Posted December 16, 2004 Share Posted December 16, 2004 i like what the nhl did and making it manditory that teams wear color at home and white on the road. I don't. Maple Leafs and others don't look right wearing blue at home. They should be like the Cowboys and wear the classic leaf at home and the modern leaf away. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
