Those orange Oriole unis reminded me of probably the most garish and eye straining world series ever played, the 1979 WS Orioles vs. Pittsburgh.
The eye strain was made worse due to the fact that both teams met each other only 8 years earlier with radically different unis. I guess its true what they say about the quality of the drugs back in the 70’s. I’d love to see some comparrison photos.

Did anyone else notice the neck protector that Ed Hickock (sp?) wore in Monday night’s baseball game? I saw it on sportscenter — huge Wilson “W” in bright yellow on it. I’ve never seen such blatant “logo creep” in baseball…

Sorry – I don’t have a screengrab.

Chicago White Sox a big fan of Indiana Jones? Look at this schedule and tell me if thats not … odd. haha.

May 22nd

It must be a MLB-wide promotion of some sort because all the team websites I’ve checked are doing the same thing. Remember the flack over the Spider-Man 2 promo a few years ago?

Here’s the Phillie Phantic Bowl in question from Post #134.

Please note that it’s not a hole in the bottom of the bowl, the lighting wasn’t strong enough from the scanner.

its not allowed in the NHL. The league mandated NOB a long time ago and Toronto didn’t want to since it meant less programs being sold, so they did theirs in blue on the blue unis, which the NHL then said you can’t to that.

I know it’s not allowed and I’ve read about the TOR thing, it’s pretty funny. Still think it would look sweet if they wore just numbers though.

Was at that game. It was hilarious once we realized what was going on (I sat in the cheap seats). But Harold Ballard was such an ass.
