markar14 Posted March 18, 2006 Share Posted March 18, 2006 For once, wasting an hour journeying through the depths of my local TJ Maxx store paid off.I usually go in there, say "All this stuff is crap" (it is), and leave; but today I stumbled upon this--feast/cover your eyes:Cool, huh?I remember way back when a red jersey was speculated to appear on the field, but never have I seen one in any stores or on anybody. So regardless of my opinion aesthetically, I had to buy it. Sure, it happens to be missing 3 buttons at the top, but when the tag says $60 US and all I pay is $16 US, I can go to the store and buy 2 red buttons. (In fact, I went to the fabric store, I got 6 buttons for $0.90... can't complain.What do you guys think of it? Like? Dislike?Discuss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the admiral Posted March 18, 2006 Share Posted March 18, 2006 I never want to see the Cubs wear that ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HurricaneDavid Posted March 19, 2006 Share Posted March 19, 2006 Cool, huh? Not really. The only Cubs alt jersey should be royal blue. This is horrific. You actually spent an HOUR at TJ Maxx???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Discrim Posted March 19, 2006 Share Posted March 19, 2006 looks more orange to me, but that could just be the lighting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dpnation Posted March 19, 2006 Share Posted March 19, 2006 Definitely a cool find, despite the fact that I never ever want to see the Cubs actually wearing them. TJMaxx is really a hit or miss place - I would've purchased it too just because it's the Cubs in a TJMaxx! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthpawJosh Posted March 19, 2006 Share Posted March 19, 2006 In the Chicago area, most Dick's Sporting Goods stores have red jerseys with blue numbers and white piping. Or at least they used to. I couldn't find one on their website, but I've seen them in person.They're not bad looking, but I agree it should not be the alt. color. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markar14 Posted March 19, 2006 Author Share Posted March 19, 2006 I totally agree with you guys that this uni is not pleasing to the eye, regardless of team affiliation; I just thought it was kinda cool to see, and it was cheap (probably b/c of the previously stated reasons), so I bought it.and it was only about 30-40 minutes there-- In case there were other goodies to find.

steiny_ramone Posted March 19, 2006 Share Posted March 19, 2006 looks more orange to me, but that could just be the lighting. that was my first thought Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoValpo Posted March 19, 2006 Share Posted March 19, 2006 i thought the red would look awful on Arizona basketball too but it grew on me, i think the cubs jersey would tooif they did wear it, it would have to be only very very special occasions, too much would make me not be a cubs fan anymore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STL FANATIC Posted March 19, 2006 Share Posted March 19, 2006 Who's the Cubs biggest rival again? Oh yeah...No. The Cubs oughta be royal blue with red accents and the Cards should be red with navy blue accents.The Cubs wanna have an alt, fine, but keep it white or royal.

Discrim Posted March 19, 2006 Share Posted March 19, 2006 that'll matter when the Cardinals start wearing royal blue, or ditch both of their navy hats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HurricaneDavid Posted March 19, 2006 Share Posted March 19, 2006 Who's the Cubs biggest rival again? Oh yeah.... One reason why I hate the Astros red jerseys. Bring back the black alt and ditch the red. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
