DGivens87 Posted March 13, 2004 Share Posted March 13, 2004 To quote a fellow Sox fan at Fenway back in 1995: "Calling Yaz a bum in Boston is like going into Kenmore Square and saying 'Fudge' (cuz I can't cuss) the Irish"So, with that outta the way, take a look:http://www.thesouvenirstore.com/Boston/Red...&categoryID=164http://www.thesouvenirstore.com/Boston/Red...&categoryID=164 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IowaFan26 Posted March 13, 2004 Share Posted March 13, 2004 It looks more like Christmas than St. Patricks with the red socks and red and white script. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee. Posted March 13, 2004 Share Posted March 13, 2004 Those are some pretty fudged (cuz I can cuss the Irish, I just choose not to) lettering jobs on that jersey...did Helen Keller make the template? They look pretty rough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brass Posted March 13, 2004 Share Posted March 13, 2004 They have hats too that are green, with the regular red B, and on the back is a shamrock. I actually like th jerseys (probably cuz I am Irish). I think they look pretty sharp. I mean they don't blend well, but neither do the WB-Scranton Penguins' Christams jerseys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CDunn Posted March 13, 2004 Share Posted March 13, 2004 yeah, that lettering and numbering looks crooked.Speaking of St. Patrick's Day Jerseys, I went to a Gwinnett Gladiators(ECHL) game last night and they wore St.P day unis. Unusally I hate jersey gradients, but these jerseys were mainly dark green(Dallas Stars), but faded into black before the shamrock striping. The gradient started a little before the stripes on the torso and sleeves, so it was rather subtle. Look closely and you'll see it get darker on the torso about where the tip of the logo ends. Didn't look bad at all. Here's a pic. The pic is kind of dark,though.UNI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They look pretty rough. Looks like bad resizing to me...I've got one of these on order from mlb.com - both because it's the Sox and for the novelty value.

DEAD! Posted March 14, 2004 Share Posted March 14, 2004 I just thought of something. Does anyone remember a hockey game on Valentine's day a few years ago where they painted the ice pink?http://www.reviewjournal.com/lvrj_home/199...ts/6239658.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NJTank Posted March 14, 2004 Share Posted March 14, 2004 Pink has no place in sports unless its the WNBA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanB06 Posted March 14, 2004 Share Posted March 14, 2004 Doesn't belong there either, in my opinion.Pink's one of those colors you're glad no sports team uses, and that you pray no team ever will. Not even a NASCAR driver would be caught dead in a pink car.Pink = Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slapshot Posted March 15, 2004 Share Posted March 15, 2004 Those might be the jerseys the Sox wear on St. Patty's Day. They used to wear just green hats, but no that they have special batting/spring training jerseys, I wouldn't rule out wearing green shirts for that day.That store is across from Fenway, and I don't think they'd sell phony merchandise. Yes, the lettering on the Nixon looks crooked, but it might have been rushed just to put it up on the site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Discrim Posted March 15, 2004 Share Posted March 15, 2004 only place i know of pink used on a regular basis is one of teh Italian clubs, forgot their name. and i think we all remember Juventus' pink road shirt (i'd actually get one, but they don't make em that big, ya know?)also, annually the Kalamazoo Wings paint the ice pink, not sure about any other teams doing this.

DGivens87 Posted March 15, 2004 Author Share Posted March 15, 2004 Interestingly enough, I found this "variation" of the Sox St. Patty's day jersey. I'm a die-hard Sox fan, and I'm almost embarassed to ask, but did the Sox ever wear green Spring Training jerseys on St. Patrick's day before this year? I know they wore green hats, but I don't remember if they wore green jerseys ever before.http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...&category=24889 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CC97 Posted March 15, 2004 Share Posted March 15, 2004 Looking at the tag it would seem they wore it in 2001 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CZzyzx41 Posted March 16, 2004 Share Posted March 16, 2004 Maybe they'll just add blue collars to their white jerseys. Thank GOD baseball doesn't extend to Halloween. I like the A's July 4th uniforms. I like the Padres "Military Opening Day" uniforms. Oh and let's just keep the pink out of sports thank you very much!

gregchait Posted March 16, 2004 Share Posted March 16, 2004 Is the irony of them celebrating a color for luck, when they are the most unluckiest franchise in the history of sports?I think they are still neat though... grc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
