quantum Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 I never really liked these uniforms, but I somehow thought they'd play better. Wrong retros, maybe?

rmackman Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 It's too bad. I hope this isn't a trend that continues all year. See...shoulda worn these instead.

LetsGoAdmirals Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 Give me a break. Yeah the uniforms are making them lose. THE UNIFORMS ARE MAKING THEM LOSE. Read that to yourself again. I don't think I've ever heard of anything so ridiculous. I really hope none of you are serious about this. And if you are, step away from your computer, try not to think about logos and uniforms for 2 seconds and get a life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, his main point is right-on.Yes, this is a place to talk about our obsession with sports logos. But it's ridiculous to assume the Brewers lackluster Sunday performances is due to the wearing of throwback uniforms. That's like saying I run faster in white shoes instead of red. That color weighs them down, after all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That color weighs them down, after all. Sports encompasses many things, including bad luck. If the Brewers keep this up, it will definitely start to creep into their thoughts.The Brewers have been mediocre, so losing isn't the real surprise. I find how bad the Brewers have played in these uniforms up to this point funny, considering how passionate most people have been about bringing back the retro set.

Why? The two aren't related.If the players had been advocating it, and then played poorly in them, you might have a point. But as it is, the comparison's a reach.
