I am an NBA fan and every team now has so many different uniforms that it is impossible to tell what teams are playing when you first turn on a game. I though uniforms were about establishing a brand, but now they actually hide the brand instead of emphasize it.
I thought this was mainly an NBA issue, but now it is starting in baseball also. The Boston Red Sox now have a set of uniforms that are yellow and light blue. I can't even wrap my head around how they came up with that. if oyu see a guy wearing a yellow baseball jersey on the street are you going to even think of the Red Sox?
Yes!!!!
It makes me feel like a grumpy old man, but I turned on the Lakers/ Nets game the other night. The Lakers are in white with blue trim. The Nets... Black and orange. Without Davis and Lebron in the game, it took me at least 5 minutes to figure out who was who.
