GoSox05 Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 (edited) They should make them wear shorts. Edited August 20, 2015 by GoSox05 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheChrisSamsa Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 I wonder if this is a preview to this being the Sox' Sunday throwback next year. That'll be 40 years since then , though, that year was pretty unremarkable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 They'll undoubtedly play about as well as that team as currently constituted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hate those uniforms. The fat guys didn't look so fat in them either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WBWSF Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 I'm surprised the White Sox will be wearing those uniforms again. They have to be the worse looking uniforms in White Sox history. After JR bought the team in 1981 he said that he had the most mail from fans requesting the White Sox get new uniforms. They were not only ugly uniforms, they were worn in one of the worse eras in White Sox history, 1976-1980. The only good year of that era was 1977. The rest of the years were HORRIBLE.

SpringfieldFan Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 They were bad enough then, but I can only imagine what they are going to looks like if anyone wears the pants in the baggy down to the shoes style. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My #1 complaint about throwbacks. Either wear it right, or don't do it. In fact, it's my #1 complaint about today's uniforms in general. Or the neon batting gloves. One or the other.

Dick Allen Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 (edited) For a joke my friend and I got the $14 cheap knockoff of these a few years ago on ebay to wear to an event at a game. I have a Chet Lemon, and compared to some of the other disaster counterfeit jerseys, the one I have is pretty spot on. The collar is slightly bigger, but everything else is fine. I will put it on next Thursday. Haven't sported it in about 5 years. I will throw on some blue shorts and really look good.

It should be mandatory that all the players wear high socks/stirrups for this game, just as they all did for the '59 throwbacks last Friday.

3GamesToLove Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 The official press release reads... The White Sox wore the jerseys from 1976-1981, including three games (game one of a double header on August 8, and August 21 and 22) in 1976 with shorts. I had always heard they tried them for game one of the doubleheader and they were never seen again. Huh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamesdiego Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 After the 59 jerseys that they just worn, these are my favorite. And I hate the 83 jerseys. But some people also call me an assh0le. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
