Islanders Get It (Uni’s)

The Islanders unveiled their new alternate uniform Monday night at an Islanders Business Club event prior to the start of their game against the New York Rangers. The new uniform, which is reminiscent of the ones the Islanders donned in the mid-1970s, is royal blue with white numbers and letters, outlined in orange.
If only certain baseball teams would take heed.   Wear what you were born wearing. 
 
The Islanders were stupid to add the fisherman, and stupid to continue with the modern darker blue.
 
Blue and Orange.  Never Black.  The way sports teams should be.

49ers

Mets Police hate the Jets for leaving Shea Stadium and wound up as 49ers fans.
 
I’m psyched for Coach Singletary and the way he throws knuckleheads off the field (Vernon Davis).  Also a good call to put Shaun Hill back under center.
 
This is interesting – Vernon Davis has his own blog, and responds to Coach Singletary.
 
 
 

Rain Helps People See End of World Series

Mother Nature figured out a way tohave people on the East Coast actually see the end of a World Series game – by playing the last three innings at 8pm.
 
I love this idea.  Play 6 innings one night, then play three more the next night.
 
I’m excited to actually see a 7th inning tonight.   Of course this being baseball the game is still likely to go past 11.
 
Oh and the forecast is for snow today.  Awesome.
 
Hey Phillies fans – it’s better for you that the Rays tied it.  WOuld you really want to win the World Series by decree after a three hour rain delay?
