Cubs Nameless Uniforms

[cubsfaninfla]

What do you think about the nameless conversion of the Cubs home uniforms?

[wekse]

i like it

[Omar]

Yeah. It will prevent BandWGN fans and make them know who the players are.

I was skeptical at first. I have grown up with uniforms with the name on the back. Now after seeing htem in action. I find those with the names on the bakc annoying and ugly.

[Sammy Who]

I hate it. It's hard to know who the players are. When Blanco switched his jersey #, I couldn't tell who that guy was.

I agree. I find myself wanting the away jerseys to be nameless now.

[imb]

Love it.

I grew up with the nameless home jerseys and hated it when they added names. I got used to it. I like the home whites without names but I think the blues don't look as good without names

[Cubway]

I,m neutral on this one. For the avid baseball fan, names do not mean anything. But to the casual fan who do not know the players, it is a real hindrance. When the Djaxx stopped putting name on the uniforms, I heard a lot of complaints from the fans. I think it would have helped them to identify with the players quicker and may have encouraged them to come back more. There are so many baseball players today that when you turn on the TV to watch a game, unless they have names on their backs, then most people do not know who they are. Including me many times. I'm not going to vote that anything 'sucks'.

[cubsfolyfe1]

me too, doesn't matter to me.

[JC]

Names on the back are redundant. Buy a freaking program, cheapskates.

[J.R.]

I like them, I just wish they'd went all the way and banished the red trim too.

:mamoru:

 

I dont really get what is so hard about remembering numbers anyways. And, if there is someone whose number you dont recognize, see if you recognize their (GASP) face/body.

[Derwood]

nameless uniforms are horrible, second only to the blue jerseys.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

I like the nameless unis. Now if we could get rid of the alternate blue tops... :-k

I agree (except for the first sentence).
