Likewise, I am a sucker for these specifically

These were my favorite unis at a time. We went from this to this...

The contrast is actually shocking. One looks like a professional jersey and the other looks like it belongs to a crappy high school team. How did they ever okay this? Someone definitely deserved to lose their job.

Most of these sleeved jerseys looked terrible. I do not know why they needed to add that separation between sleeve and a jersey, if you know what I mean, I do not know how to explain in English, but it looks like NBA jersey but with sleeves added at last second, why can't it look like a normal sleeved thing that is singlular. Also Material was bad on these sleeved jerseys.

That thread about buying NBA jerseys made me think, I would never want to wear or own basketball jersey really, sleeveless wear is just not practical. On the other hand, Soccer jerseys always look great on anybody. I think NBA just wanted to sell more jerseys and they figured sleeved ones would sell far better. From all reports, it did, but none of them looked good, just very cheap looking.

I personally prefer the classic red, white and blue scheme but this is fine as a homage to that era´s team. Are the players going to where super baggy shorts to make the look complete? That would be sweet!


We are talking about the same Murrkuh/Philadelphia founded on slain morality values right
Somewhere trying not to offend Texas Chuck.
