Players in the "wrong" uniforms


Recommended Posts

Speaking of Shanny, how about the one preseason game he played as the captain of the Devils prior to retiring a few months later.

OK WHAT?!!! Talk about a rare picture...

1) He was only wore the C for one game (a pre-season game)

2) He only wore #14 for a few games (I believe only pre-season games), before he wore #18

3) This is the only pic where I've ever seen Shanny have a visor

I think this was taken in the pre-season of 2009/2010. He signed with NJ half way through the 08/09 season.

That makes this pic even rarer. He only played like 3 pre-season games that year.

Chellios cheap shot on Brian Propp in '89 playoffs:

Story B: Red Wings go undefeated and score 100 goals in every game. They also beat a team comprised of Godzilla, the ghost of Abraham Lincoln, 2 Power Rangers and Betty White. Oh, and they played in the middle of Iraq on a military base. In the sand. With no ice. Santa gave them special sand-skates that allowed them to play in shorts and t-shirts in 115 degree weather. Jesus, Zeus and Buddha watched from the sidelines and ate cotton candy.

In honour of the recent Hockey Hall of Fame class...

To put into perspective how terrible the hockey scene in Atlanta is...

...I have no idea who this is. No clue in the world.

Chris Chellios.

Wow - I don't think I watched a single minute of hockey this past season, yet even I knew that was Chris Chelios.

:P

I know this was probably posted a year ago, but Andrew Bynum never even actually played a game for the 76ers. Are there any other instances of players being introduced to the media (with a team), having a photo shoot and never playing with them??

There's probably far more notable examples, but Ryan Madson with the Reds comes to mind.

injured his arm before spring training games and had to have Tommy John surgery.

wow good find., Think he only played like 5 or 6 games with ATL and then packed it in for good that year.

In keeping with the theme, these still seems odd

This looks weird as well.

He only wore these uniforms for 45 games during the lockout shortened 94-95 season.

For the longest I associated him with either the Blues or Whalers, probably more so the Whalers. When he went to the wings, him in a wings jersey looked odd. Now he looks odd in any other jersey but the wings.

I had the newspaper with that picture back in 1994!

 

Behind McMahon, I believe, is TE Steve Jordan...wearing Reebok Pumps!

Most notable moment of Steve Jordan's career:

Not the half-dozen Pro Bowls and fathering a future first-rounder?

He also went to (and apparently graduated from) Brown and according to Wikipedia, currently works as a Civil Engineer.

But let's not overlook the most impressive part; BBVT saw the name of a good, but not particularly famous, tight end who's career ended 19 years ago and remember that clip with Mr. Perfect. Wow.

(OT: Mr. Perfect is from my hometown of Robbinsdale, MN (pop around 14000), which probably has produced more pro wrestlers per capita than any city on earth. It's wikipedia page lists 11 and I swear one of the two Road Warriors is from there too.)
