It's actually time for new uniforms

[Angel]

Edit: I have revised most of this post

I know it's been said before, many of you hate to see it come up again, but today is an off day and I'd rather not focus on the team's performance right now, so hear me out..

In 2002 the Angels changed their uniforms and won a world series 'miraculously' the same year .   The Padres changed styles and now they're Slam Diego, the Astros moved on from their old color tone and look at them, albeit they are cheaters but still a force to reckon with, I believe the Nats won on the same year they changed jerseys as well.  I'm sure there are more I am missing and I know a lot of these teams went through major rebuilds upon their uniform change but it still makes you wonder, we've had these uniforms for quite some time now, I believe it's time for a new look. 

 

I miss the red white blue color tone to be honest, it was minimalist and had a certain intimidating factor to it, even the 1994 road greys looked more intimidating.  Laugh or whatever, I just feel like the all white home unis are too 'angelic' and 'nice', I don't want to be the nice Angels, I want to be the competitive indtimidating Angels that nobody wants to face.  I also feel like the red and white uniforms were a part of the Scioscia era of Angels baseball, I really do feel like the team needs a new identity to mark the changing times.  And we have an amazing set of retro uniforms to glean from.

 

Before you guys write me off, tell me why you don't care OR do you believe this team will never change jerseys again?  I just brought some evidence that team identity changes can be good.

Interesting ideas:

This team will change uniforms, we are not the Dodgers Yankees or Cubs etc. and we have already changed jerseys a handful of times, it's going to happen again.

I feel like they can improve on the red and dark blue 90's theme (although the hat from my avatar is perfect imo), some slight modernization and if Arte can quit being part of L.A. to spite the Dodgers, we'll be back to CA/Anaheim Angels in no time.

No

Lou we aren't the Red Sox, Yankees or Dodgers, we've already changed jerseys a handful of times.

[Lou]

Still no.

[Angel]

Compelling argument, but I disagree with your denial.

If you search the history we have these threads pop up about every 6 months, here is the most recent one I found.  I know what you are going to say, “Hey Straddy (not my Daddy) this is about the alternative uniforms”. Doesn’t matter, you’ll get everything you need from that thread.  

You are welcome, Son.

This is what perpetually losing does to fans' brains.

unless you buy him a beer or two, lou isn't going to agree with you on the uniform issue.

it's his one fatal flaw.

Am I the only Angel fan who shoots from the hip?  I've been through 2 accounts here because I speak my mind, won't be losing this account though.

No, a ton of people, including myself, shoot from the hip.

Sounds like you're a coward then. Quit using alts to speak your mind.

Nothing.  Absolutely nothing.  I did lose the N in my divorce to that Orange dude.

I can't wait for the next "my all-time favorite Angels uniform" thread. 

I agree

He eluded to me banning him so he won’t share his old name.  By the way, I have never once banned someone as I do not have authority to do so.  But that is neither here nor there.  He is probably one of the Quinlans.

Why were you banned then? It's pretty hard to get banned here unless you're doing something really wrong, like posting ads or being a nuisance.

The uniforms are fine, some of the players wearing them aren’t.

Probably for shooting from the hip.

This Angel fellow is a real maverick. I bet he shaves against the grain too.

I need color tones

It’s actually not. Nothing wrong with the unis. We have had the most success under them. Maybe focus on more important things like oh idk..... IMPROVING THE FUCKING TEAM. Why are people so fixated on the uniforms? They’re simple and nice. It’s part of our identity now. I’d rather start creating culture then starting over agsin
