SoxPride56 Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Nov 15, 2010 -> 09:37 AM) I don't get the outrage. Agreed. It isn't like they are chaging our colors or anything. Who cares as long as they are shaking hands after wearing these jersey's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clyons Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Nov 15, 2010 -> 09:37 AM) I don't get the outrage. I'm certainly not outraged, but I like the sock logo, and think this change was needless and dumb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swingandalongonetoleft Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 (edited) I'm good as long as they don't mess with the black tops. The road grays remind me of watching Sox@Toronto games on WCIU in the middle of the week late in the season after both are out of contention.

ThunderBolt Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 I'd have to say that the black tops are my favorite. I always find the gray ones to be drab. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flavum Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 In the grand scheme of things, it's not something to get upset about. But when I hear Boyer spew marketing gobbletygook referring to the Sox as a "brand", I roll my eyes...and he does this in every interview I hear him do. Ok fine Brooks, if you want to talk about them like that in the conference room, that's your business. In public, the White Sox are a major league team, not a product on a shelf in the grocery store. I think this uniform change is an example of the Sox over-thinking things. They have a great home uniform, and a great road uniform. I wish they would wear them more often, and bring out the alternate black once a week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MHizzle85 Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 QUOTE (3E8 @ Nov 14, 2010 -> 11:21 PM) Jesus. Soxtalk should coordinate some suicide prevention plan in case the team actually attempts a significant uniform change in the future. This. I could care less about a minor change that I'm sure none of us will even pay attention to after 3 games into the season. It's not like they're going back to wearing shorts.

Wanne Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 I don't like it...but really in the grand scheme of things no biggie. Nobody will probably even notice it after a while or when the game's going on. That being said...as for uni changes...I really wish they'd bring back the sleeveless.

elrockinMT Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Nov 15, 2010 -> 04:34 PM) The Sox grays are my favorite and my guess is they will still be. Just win!!! Actually I like the road grays and these new ones are ok in my opinion. I like the home whites though too. Black unis are ok, but not my favorite and I think they over did it with their use Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would've said "who cares?", but apparently a lot of people do. I would like to see them bust out the red striped uniforms a few times a season, though.

TheChrisSamsa Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 I'm more interested in the names on the back of the jerseys than what logo they use on the shoulder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love just seeing the numbers. I like the name's if we pick up a new player or have a young guy come up that I haven't seen yet I like knowing who it actually is without memorizing player's numbers.

LVSoxFan Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 FAIL. Talk about "If it ain't broke." So the big replacement is... the Sox logo? Wow. So do they really think we're all going to run out and buy the new one because they changed it? Why do something so stupid? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthsideDon48 Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 There's only 1 thing I wish they would've changed with the road grey uniform: change to cursive "Chicago" text on the chest to an old-style "CHICAGO" text in all capital letters like how the New York Yankees has "NEW YORK" and how the Cubs has "CHICAGO" as well. Cursive text really annoys me and it's the biggest reason why the road grey is my least favorite sox uniform. If it had the capital letters in an old-style format, similar to the Yankees and old Boston jersey, then I'd like it more and it'd be my 2nd-favorite behind the alternate black jersey but ahead of the home white jersey.

Strongly disagree - thought I felt like you do until the Dodgers did that for a season and I went the entire season not knowing who was playing where any time I went to the park.
