Wow has Nike messed things up. First of all, those city edition unis are absoultely terrible. ALL OF THEM. Second, the ASG uniform idea was bad. Not only have they ruined a long-time tradition, but they look like garbage. On the topic of the city edition nonsense, I'd like to dive deeper into the stupidity of this. The Red Sox ones look like Long Beach State's uniforms and would look horrible nonetheless. Also, there's NO such thing as "Wrigleyville!" Bad idea. And finally, Those Los Dodgers unis just look like pajamas. Just a horrible decision to start this all around.

I couldn't agree more. It's all being driven by a desire to sell more jerseys and caps at the expense of tradition. I refer to the Nike unis as gimmicky clown suits.

I thought the idea was cool at first, but oh man they look bad.

Manfred doesn't care about tradition, it's all about the almighty dollar. Pretty soon there will prominent advertising on the uniforms to generate more dollars. He's fast becoming the worst commissioner in all of the major sports with his thirst for dollars and non-traditional rule changes.

This was clearly going to happen once I realized a freaking cryptocurrency exchange is buying ad space on the umpires now. Baseball isn't dead yet, but Manfred will absolutly nickel and dime the sport until it is.

There actually is a Wrigleyville. It's the official name of the neighborhood that contains Wrigley Field.

The white Sox city jersey was cool! Also, wrigleyville is real! Come to Chicago and check it out if you'd like but south side is better.
