Call the Fashion Police: Pirates and Ugly-Ass Jerseys

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

I'm the same. I like the grays because that's the traditional road uniform. I like the pinstripes at home. The blue jerseys look like softball jerseys to me.

Sometimes I talk myself into thinking the Cubs would look good in red jerseys.

 

Thank you for setting me straight on that.

I wish the Cubs would return to these uniforms for the road.

I wish they switch the the early 1900s uniform.

I wouldn't mind, either, with one slight change....instead of the cursive Cubs, a cursive Chicago on the front.

[DiamondMind]

My eyes!

 

Whatever happened to being dapper, being simple, being stylish without being loud? And just to nitpick NorthsideAvenger, cursive lettering has no place on jerseys.

I just want blue and white trim on the road jersey sleeves.

[BleedCubbieBlue81]

i'm just a traditional "white at home, gray on the road" guy. I don't really like ANY colored jerseys

Ah, fair enough. I just don't like the greys, never have. They just look like sweatpants/pajamas to me.

 

Eh, at least the cubs haven't gone to red yet.... or to the sleeveless unis with the dark t-shirt underneath. Absolutely hideous...

The uncursive Cubs just look awkward to me.

Hey, where are your buccaneers?

 

Right under my buccenhat!

I move that we officially change the name from "alternate blue jerseys" to "ill-fitting, dumpy-looking, won't stay buttoned batting practice atrocities"

Seconded.

 

Carlos needs to appreciate the slimming power of pinstripes.

 

Maybe that can be motivation for him to stay in shape...he's banned from picking the blues until he stops letting them make him look so fat by the end of the season.

I like the blue jerseys...

 

Scratch that, I love the blue jerseys. Then again blue has been my favorite color since birth, and that shade of blue, Cubbie blue, is the shade I enjoy the most.

 

Well, if it were to change, at least my Aramis blue jersey will be a collectors item

I think "Cubbie (ech) blue" is great, I just don't like the solid mass of blue with nothing else a la the A's green jersey. I wouldn't mind a uniform that has the blue being dominant...just not where one piece is ALL blue. It's looks cheesy and unprofessional.

 

Damn those A's.

 

I would like this version of a blue jersey much more, even though it's still mostly blue...at least it has something else to offset it:

MY EYES! THE GOGGLES DO NOTHING!!!

[tkenm356]

are those the new batting practice jerseys?

[Garwilly]

No.

[tkenm356]

Ahh, I was wrong. the new ones look like that but with white/red instead of red

[biittner77]

Maybe it's just me but I don't really mind the Red Pirates Jerseys. To me there no worse than any other alternate Jersey. I hate alternate jerseys.

I'm a little surprised that there are still teams that don't have a black alternate jersey.

I think he means he expected them all to have them by now.
