The color teal was unique to the Marlins, never saw anything wrong with it, I wonder how Marlins fans think about this. Even with this new stadium, it will take a miracle for Miami to ever reach the Series again.[/quote] We don't know if it'll be royal blue or any shade of blue, but teal is awful, awful color. In the early 1990s, almost all of my clothes were teal or purple or both and I hated it. The Marlins realized having teal as a primary color was a huge mistake, and with each update, there was less and less teal. And I don't see what was so special about the old Tampa Rays colors either.[/quote] As a Marlins fan, i personally like the teal. It gave them identity, standing out from the typical red/blues of the league. Black is so freaking generic that it pains the retina. The ultimate thing for me is that When they move to the new stadium and change to the "miami" Marlins, they adopt the aqua and orange color scheme from the Paul Soto uni's ;)~!

The same Nike deformity has been appearing on Oregon's Nike football jerseys. I suspect it is all the high fallutin' Nike technology that is supposed to wick sweat and moisture away from the body and Nike jersey. Oregon's green Nike jerseys have also shown a strong Nike discoloration across the shoulders and underarm areas. I don't know what other teams have the fancy new Nike technology for their Nike jerseys, but suspect that certain Nike colors will probably be more prone to display this Nike abnormality.
