When A Uniform Is Not Uniform?
On Wednesday, the Blue Jays released their new and uniform styles for the 2004 season. On the YES Network broadcast of the Jays-Yanks game last night, they showed the uniform tops and s, etc.
The YES announcers said that the Jays actually wanted to wear the new unis for one game, on Wednesday, as part of the media/public release, but, MLB would not allow them - stating that you could not change your uniform and for one game during the season. Am I nuts, or, what about all those games with the "throwback" uniforms? Is this not the same thing? Come to think of it, remember a few years back, when MLB had those stupid "Future Look" uniforms? - - I remember the version the M's had - it was terrible. Is this a little inconsistent, or what?

They probably didn't go through "channels" and get the merch done. Argh!

As smed said it was probably just a bureaucratic thing. Probably would have been better off doing it and then asking for forgiveness later.
