I don't mind them using blue black or silver, at least they can be used to outline a mountain or snowfall, but BURGUNDY? I've never seen a burgundy mountain before.

It wouldn't bother me much if they used it as an accent color, but as a primary color, NOPE.

these never bothered me but now that you bring it up, these stick out to me, off the top of my head:

NY Jets: green? (I know for HESS oil) but blue and silver seem better

Viking: purple? the most unintimidating color ever. How

would they look with burgundy, gold and black?

Maple Leafs: what about red instead of blue? ah, but the

nemesis in Montreal already has it.

Dallas Stars: dump the old colors and reinvent yourselves fo the lonestar state would ya.

Can I assume you're not just talking about New Era's line of fashion caps?

Lakers = purple & yellow? Should have stayed nautical with blue at the least.

Jazz= purple, teal & black? I can't really describe a color of music, but I guess the previous color scheme was symbolic of New Orleans/Mardi gras thing.

Ducks = eggplant and jade? Mallards are green, but most ducks I see are white or brown.

This post could go on and on. Some team nicknames are pretty obvious for the colors they choose. Others must have some connection to either a city, owner or folklore. Patriots, Yankees, Orioles, BlueJays, Cardinals, etc.

I assume you're talking about the off colour jerseys that Majestic made a few years ago? I remember the red Yankees  and brown Tigers. Those were horrible.  

And by the way, the Leafs colours come from Smythe's vision of "Canada's blue skies and white snow". Although he kept the green from the St. Pats for the first year.

You know why they made those what were called "fashion color team wear" mainy hats, jerseys and jackets?

For street gangs.

Sad but true a Dodger fan in the Bloods coudl now were a red LA cap where as before he would not wear a Dodger cap. Im not the only one who noticed thsi either Ive seen newspaper articles, and ESPN reports taht pointed out that the color variety was attractive to memeber of gangs, in differnt colores institutions.

I haven't seen the brown/tan baseball plops, but the Hibbett near me has something even worse.

Black shirts.

With PINK ringers.

And various NBA teams' logos in PINK and white/silver trim.

:angry:

EDIT: brown/tan baseball plops  :laugh:  :laugh: ...I apparently misspelled shirts "s-h-i-t-s" and the censor kicked in, the hilarious thing is that it's talking about brown shirts  :laugh:  :laugh:
