Glen Mason's Hot Wife links up the official away jerseys, and Ann Arbor Torch And Pitchfork extends its business hours. Abandon all hope:

I'm not as horrified as most probably will be, as I quite like the numbering and don't mind the shoulder piping, but I can't imagine the little side stripe as anything but ugly. Full gallery here.

Update: The official site has the jerseys up and the side striping seems a lot less prominent, FWIW.

WOW NINJA!!
$199.00 for a jersey is only about $198.00 more than I'd pay. I'll wait til they start showing up at the Goodwill Store. Then I'll buy 'em for a couple bucks and put 'em on ebay.

Hey Ninja, I have Hart's authentic home jersey from three years ago still. I definitely like the Adidas homes more than the aways, but what are your thoughts in going with the crazier away version just to switch it up a little bit? Haha I just might be able to pull off that little side stripe

Hey, whatever's important to people- I mean I was big on the #1 thing, but not so much on the away jerseys. Home jerseys, different story- but if it bugs you fine, I think you'll forget all about it when Feagin is streaking down the sideline for six.

I posted this on the Diary entry, but:
Is there any speculation or knowledge as to how much the authentic jerseys will cost? I think I'll head down to The MDEN on August 1 to pick up an authentic, because the replicas look pretty shoddy in comparison. I think Nike's were about $150

are out-of-fucking hand when you try to tell people NOT to complain. Fuck, if they want to not like the jerseys and complain about them, then let them. That's what the post is about and its obviously important to them even if it isn't to you. So, which Two Headed Boy track is the best on the album?

Just
Just imagine, those side stripes on the away jerseys will make our guys look faster, combined with Eeeeee Barwis, and we're off to the races. I don't think those stripes are a big deal. In fact, if I ever bought one of those, I think they'd look pretty decent. The home authentics look nice. No way in hell I'm buying a replica POS. They look crappy and with screened numbers instead of stiched, it's a super replica instead of a genuine attempted authentic knockoff. Anyway, no big deal...

Really not that different..
Last years away jerseys had piping on the shoulders. There was also a stripe down the side that finished on the back of the jersey, it was just thinner. Much ado about nothing.

I've got really, really,
I've got really, really, really novel idea: stop being pussies. I mean, shit. It's a jersey. Stop bitching about shoulder piping and colorful panel inserts. This is all mind-blowingly minute. Think about all the things that are wrong with this world. We got baby mommas who can't feed they babies and baby daddys who wont be a man and own up to they babies. And, there are like wars and other shit happening and Barackal Hussein Bin Lama is a secret Islamic terrorist who is running for President. A little context, please. And, its all about the helmets, anyway.

WTF is the Big Deal?
You guys are comlaining about a fucking AWAY jersey???? Who the fuck even notices anything but the Helmet on the road? It's white with numbers on it. Sheesh, talk about worrying over not only what you can;t control, but something that registers as a 0 on the Big Deal scale.
