Players in the "wrong" uniforms

No. You are wrong.

Well, he DID win a Superbowl sitting on their bench, no? That made him the first QB to win the Superbowl with two teams long before Peyton did (though Peyton actually started for both teams)

 

Jim's stint with the Eagles, however, was rather short and unremarkable.

 

(his only RIGHT team is Chicago of course)

The QB of the Bears' lone Super Bowl champion, and in many ways the man who personified that team's attitude, played for the hated-rival Packers. That, my friend, is the definition of a player in the wrong uniform.

Fair.

I was probably harsh with you earlier. McMahon in an Eagles uniform is definitely wrong and weird, probably more so to an Eagles fan. 

 

But him in a Packers uniform is wrong

Although he journeyed a little towards the end of his career, Robin Roberts with the Yankees is especially wrong as the only appearance he made for them was in '62 Spring Training, never making a regular season appearance before being released that May, and signing with the Orioles.

In fact, his Hall of Fame plaque does not even list the Yankees as one of his teams.

Olli Jokinen

EDIT: I recognize that probably all 9 of his other teams (besides FLA) are the "wrong" uniform, but seeing him in the Gretzky Kings jerseys threw me off. He was drafted that year and played 8 games in those jerseys, never scoring a point.

Edgardo Alfonzo

I'm an Angels fan, and I legitimately don't remember him playing in Anaheim. Weird.

 

Since we're talking about Edgardo, this is the only team I've ever seen him play for in person. I think John Rocker played in the same game.

Well, since the Warriors just won the Finals, here are a few of my favorite wrong uniform Warriors I remember watching growing up.
