habsfan1 Posted December 24, 2011 Share Posted December 24, 2011 And the Reds, short for Red Legs I believe, and Blues for the music hence the note.Not exactly on either count:The Cincinnati Reds were founded as the Red Stockings.Way too similar to the Red Sox.

bucknut40 Posted December 24, 2011 Share Posted December 24, 2011 And the Reds, short for Red Legs I believe, and Blues for the music hence the note.I don't think that is true of the Reds. They switched from "Reds" to "Redlegs" in the 50s to distance themselves from communism. PC, if you will.They actually started as the red stockings then went to the reds switched to red legs then back to reds #RaiderUpTwitter-@R_Redinger4 My Blog-Southwest Ohio Football NCFAF-Wheeling Coal Miners,NCFAF-FCS Lake Erie Shoremen, NCFAB-Wheeling Coal Miners Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BadSeed84 Posted December 24, 2011 Share Posted December 24, 2011 Why is the fleece navy? neither teams have navy as their color. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTernup Posted December 24, 2011 Share Posted December 24, 2011 Pink is the name of the company that made the shirt. I see a lot of girls wearing stuff from Pink and they are all sorts of colors. I never understood why you would name your company after a color.On a similar note, at spring training this year my girlfriend was wearing a "PINK" t-shirt that was green and said I Love Pink. The ticket guy who was in his 70's asked her, "If you love pink so much, why is your shirt green?" every time she wears that shirt I give her flack about that!

You might want to adjust your monitor settings. Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

guest23 Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 It continues....Hey, atleast it works in the mirror....oh wait... several years ago my buddy brought back similar stuff he bought from street vendors that were around $2 each...they were hilarious and to be expected given the envionment but for the world's largest retailer to essentially be selling the same product and use vendors that have zero quality control is pathetic.but hey that's wally world so I guess people don't mind buying shoddy product as long as it's cheap.
