Sharing a locker in a newly built $900 million crown jewel NFL stadium…brilliant

Makes sense to me. It would be a waste of resources for a team to build a few dozen extra lockers for players who aren’t going to be with the team for more than a few weeks.

Yup, keep in mind that the Texans use their regular season home as their training camp. There are about 60 lockers which is more than enough for the team during the season. Why build a room with 80 lockers? Use that space for a terrific players lounge with huge flat panels and video games, nice meeting rooms for individual position units, the biggest and most well equipped workout room I’ve ever seen which includes an office for what must be every member of the training staff, swimming pools, several large in the ground whirlpool and water therapy pools etc, etc.

Some people do nothing but criticize. Sez more about them than the organization. The internet makes everyone a genius, an expert, or humorist. [shrug]

I’m sure the players prefer that to going to some tiny college an hour away, where they use D-II and D-III facilities. Let’s see… packing and having my own tiny locker, or keeping everything in the same spot and doubling up in a gorgeous facility?

Besides, being doubled up really reveals a lot about your chances to make the team, doesn’t it?

Apparently Rajon Rondo’s Celtics t-shirt is missing one I. CELTCS

The shirt’s obviously wrinkled. You can’t see the second “B” in “Basketball” either.

Braves are wearing the all-blue hats again. I like them with their away jerseys.

Thom Brennaman was doing the Reds’ TV broadcast tonight and he sad the Braves would be wearing the solid blue caps on the road until they lost a game. They lost in 11 innings tonight. The Uniwatch cliffhanger begins…

That, and Prince Fielder might look worse than Eric Gagne in a baseball uniform.

What the hell is this with the gold “C” in “UCLA” I ask?

Something to do with the 100th year (centennial) of UCLA (School, Basketball, I don’t know)

The Gold “C” stands out for the Roman numeral “C”, which is 100. At least I hope so.

There, I have had my Cliff Clavin from Cheers minute of a little knowledge that may or may not be correct.

Let’s all be happy that the “C” wasn’t done in “Vegas Gold”, the worst replacement color for teams that should be wearing Old Gold in the annuls of any sport uniform color.
