It is equivalent to going to someone from NYC and making a comment about 9/11. Remember, until 9/11, this was the worst terrorist attack on American soil. Just not cool. Anyways, getting back off of my rant, the black and gold looks great INHO. I think they want to stay away from OU/OSU colors and I was not a big Barons fan until I saw that jersey. To me, that is the best I have seen so far. Also, OKC didn't steal the team. Seattle didn't want them. Patrick said:

But here's this for those really (and unnecessarily) concerned about Paul v. Nike: When we were putting together the NCAA basketball uni bracket, he said something positive about the System of Dress. He said he liked most of the designs, though the shorts were obviously completely ridiculous. I'm still reeling from the revelation. I'm guessing another beer will help. Late to the party, that’s me.

I just don't like how there is piping/color down one side of the jersey but not the other. I feel it should be even. But I think black and maroon, to keep the OSU and OU fans happy. Personally, I think black and gold would look sharp, with gold unis as their home unis, but that's just me. The prototype OKC jerseys aren’t bad.
