Anyone's favorite sports team has too many uniforms. There's the traditional home and away, and most fans don't see a problem with buying a jersey of their favorite player, but really, too much.
Home, away, alternate, throwbacks. It's too much. The Chicago Bears wore orange jerseys. ORANGE!!!! As a Packer fan I'm all for making the Bears look silly, but those orange jerseys (ORANGE!!!!) reminded me of a winter game in Lambeau full of Packer fans wearing their hunting coats. The Chicago Bears should not take the field in orange jerseys. (ORANGE!?!?)
I know the owners need to make a buck, and it's not like stadiums pay for themselves. Taxpayers can do that. I even get it when people say "Hey. Cool orange Bears jersey." (ORANGE???) But really, do the players have to wear them too? My hometown Milwaukee Brewers have home whites, and road grays. That's not enough somehow. There's the navy jerseys. One says "Brewers" One says "Milwaukee" Then there's the wheat colored "gold" option. What is this, bar league softball? That's 6 f'n uniforms!!!!
But wait. There's more. Don't forget the throwbacks. Let's see, there were the Steelers throwbacks that looked like bumble bee stripes, or prisoners.
The fans that buy orange Bear jerseys (ORANGE!!!) are going to buy them whether the Bears play in them or not. Some people just like ugly ass clothes. As long as we're picking up the stadium tab, could you guys throttle back the bumblebee stripes, and blaze orange? Really - orange??
