When they put it like that, it’s hard to argue
But also, when they take an inch, you’re not supposed to give them a mile.
Draw the line somewhere, man.
edit: Keep in mind that I understand that the insurance patch was not the players’ idea, but the new jersey color is, and therefore is something the players are actually into/want to do. Much easier sell if the actual players want it, like beards.
Just don’t dress up in clown outfits like half the teams in the league do.
Somehow the red sox are wearing banana yellow jerseys now
Brilliant point. Jerseys stopped being sacred when teams slapped on the logo of the highest bidder
I like it, I’m sure I’m in the minority there. I would’ve preferred an all black though.
Nobody likes the patch either though.
Yeah any jersey integrity tradition bullshit went out the window when they put an insurance carrier’s logo front and center on the sleeve
totally agree. how steeped in tradition can your jerseys be if you’ve got an ugly insurance company plastered on the sleeve. it all went out the window with that
There’s nothing wrong with going in a different direction, but in this specific case those are ugly jerseys.
It’s an honor to pay the extra 20 bucks to have the patch on a store bought jersey
lmao he’s 100% right, but this is the type of comment that gets the front office a phone call from the sponsor and you pulled into the office.
As a lifelong Yankee fan, I really can’t say I understand the pearl clutching about this. I’m also a soccer fan so adding the ad patch on the sleeve didn’t impact me at all either since ads on jerseys is just the norm (hell, the Red Bulls entire team is just an ad), but wearing an alternate a couple times a year is not going to impact the brand at all, might sell a few extra jerseys, and make some fans happy while others just don’t care. For fans who vehemently against this, it’s probably a couple games a year and if it really bothers you so much, I question how much you actually care about watching baseball vs just wanting to feel better than other baseball fans as a Yankee fan wrapped up in tradition that you didn’t even live to see most of. If the players like it, as long as they don’t look goofy, I’m not bothered at all
oh damn
I don’t know why one wrong thing justifies another.
At the end of the day it’s a road alternate and i’ve always liked the BP uniform so it’s not a huge deal.
I just like that the Yankees have a bunch of traditions, and it seems like we’re getting rid of them pretty quickly.
Two wrongs don’t make a right, The better solution is to get rid of the patch.
dont the yankees pa people make space laser noises when someone strikes out? it’s the most already the most undignified stadium in the league for that alone but you can’t have sideburns. a truly cursed place.
I’m just over alternate jerseys in general. There’s so much random shit nowadays that when you go to a game the fans are hardly even wearing the same colors anymore. The Giants could barely even be considered to have an actual home jersey anymore because half the token they’re wearing a city connect or the gigantes jersey or whatever.
This just goes so hard from Judge. Yall (money hungry owners) greenlit these stupid ass ad placement to defile historic jerseys so the ‘no alternates it’s about history’ defense lost all moral standing
Can’t have their name on the back, but they can certainly have a sponsor patch. Smdh
