ColeJ Posted August 18, 2007 Share Posted August 18, 2007 i'm here at work, with sportscenter on tv... and i'm noticing a trend.every night when i see the angels on sportscenter, they're wearing their red alternates... or at least i think they are.so they wear them every game? most games? more than they should?is it more often than not, or am i just noticing it so much because i hate them? red uniforms, with red workmarks, and red names and numbers...that has to be my least favorite baseball jersey currently in use... and it seems like they wear it every single game.

O.C.D Posted August 18, 2007 Share Posted August 18, 2007 They wear it about once or twice a week, or at least that's what it seems like to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powersurge Posted August 18, 2007 Share Posted August 18, 2007 I'm really opposed to a team wearing an alternate that often, especially the Angels' red letters on red shirt look. They should have gone with white or silver letters instead IMO. Either way, alternates should be relegated to a 'once in a while' thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oddball Posted August 18, 2007 Share Posted August 18, 2007 A lot of teams are wearing their alternates right now, why? Probably because they are cool base and the greys aren't made in the cool base. Now why the Angels wear their reds all the time, it's probably just to annoy me. Oh wait, it gets better, they annoy me with the red jerseys and then on top of it force me to listen to the crappy duo of Jose "Can you really understand what I'm saying?" Mota and Mark Gubiza as a play by play duo. Oh wait, that's what the power button is for. Â Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nwtrailtrekker Posted August 18, 2007 Share Posted August 18, 2007 i think they do something similar to what the Mariners do. they wear their alternate jerseys on the first game of a home series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boardname Posted August 18, 2007 Share Posted August 18, 2007 I agree, but I'd say the Pirates reds are WAYYY worse than the Angels' reds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MVP Posted August 18, 2007 Share Posted August 18, 2007 I watched the Jays series against the Angels, and I hated watching those jerseys on TV. They literally hurt my eyes... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FRIAR_BOLT_619 Posted August 18, 2007 Share Posted August 18, 2007 No team is worse when it comes to wearing there alternates then the padres as i mentioned before. At least red looks nice, But those damn blue softball looking tops with sand really piss me off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shumway Posted August 19, 2007 Share Posted August 19, 2007 You know, I actually don't mind the red jerseys. I saw them in person in Baltimore this season, and they didn't look half bad, even with the red numbers. I mean, sure, white numbers would make an improvement, but there's enough contrast in the white outline to make out the numbers. They do wear them quite often though...definitely more than they should. They could easily do without alternates, although I'm still pulling for a navy alternate.

M59 Posted August 19, 2007 Share Posted August 19, 2007 Those are great jerseys, especially in person. Can't wait to add a game worn one to my collection.And if they're hurting your eyes when you watch 'em on TV, your set is probably maladjusted!
