OT: Phillies: We Might Just Get A Little Stupid Spending: Offseason Part One

[Jack Straw]

The fact the unis went from that beautiful distinctive light blue to GRAY is just...tragic.

That light blue is a great color. For the pajamas of a six year old boy.

 

[Jack Straw]

The light blue wasn’t especially distinctive either, the Royals and White Sox both used it (or very close).

Brewers and Expos too IIRC, and I think there were more.

Your beloved Cardinals too.

Yep, I knew there were more I just couldn’t remember offhand.

Your beloved Cardinals too.

Oh yeah, I forgot they wore those. I also forgot that they were my beloveds lol.

lol. Probably my earliest sports related memory is the ‘64 baseball season. I hate the Cardinals with a passion.

I cant believe theres a single phillies fan who hates the 80's logo and powder blue with burgundy.

 

[Normand Lacombe]

Braves wore the light blues in the 80's

Yeah they are classics but not even the best Phillies unis. The burgundy and white pinstripes are I think possibly the best unis in sports history.

The red and whute stripes I love but they don't compare to the burgundy and white (and I grew up on the red and white).

These are great!

Only issue I have is with the thigh numbers.

Literally about to post that. Those Mustard Yellow A's jerseys of the same time period are also great.

 

[DrinkFightFlyers]

And let's not forget the 80s brown yellow and orange Padres unis. I have a Mitchell and Ness Gwynn jersey from the era. One of my faves.

I had forgotten about them. And then you had to go and do this.

Those look better as a period piece than they did on the field. Houston was a whole team of guys dressed like clowns.

everytime this thread gets bumped i am fully bracing myself for that harper/machado tweet.

 

[BackToTheBrierePatch]

Then there were those hideous 80s WhiteSox jerseys

Waiting on the move that fixes another roster spot.
