Purists, beware: Thursday, the Red Sox have plans to unveil “changes to the ballclub’s logos” and “select uniforms.” Manny Delcarmen, Jim Rice, Jerry Remy and other club officials will be on hand for the announcement/unveiling.

It’s likely the team will reveal a new “alternate uniform,” to either replace or supplement the red tops the team often wears for Sunday home games.

There’s no word yet on what the new logo will look like, or whether it will replace the existing one, which dates back decades.

Fine. Whatever. My old stuff will just look that much more legit. I won't buy any of the new Red Sox tartan plaid stuff or paisley Sox stuff or whatever it is.

Corsi, please tell us you put that together in photoshop, else I throw up in my mouth. That's not even acceptable for Spring Training unis.

Please tell me that isn't the new uniform. I just made a uniform for my school that would look great for the Sox. It is a red top with navy piping and the team nickname in script(red fill on the letters with navy and white outlining) with no tail. The numbers are a Dodgers-like look as they numbers are navy on front and back to contrast the red. If it looks anything like mine, it will look great.

Hell no. You’re going to write the best story of your life. We’re going to try and play the best [expletive] game of our life tomorrow. That’s what you’ve got to do when you’re 12-14. Don’t put your head down and mope. Grind it out. You believe. That’s what we’re built on.”

I think that was our "futuristic" uniform that each team wore in the late 90s for a game.... ours may have been rained out IIRC (a sign from God).

They're the Turn Ahead the Clock uniforms, which are still a slight upgrade over the red unis.

Those are what teams are going to wear in the future.

"Fuck the World Series," said Mauer. "Seriously. Write that down. Fuck the World Series. If I ever win a World Series ring, I will literally just take it and fuck the tiny ring-hole." Mauer punctuated his remarks with a graphic, thrusting pantomime, presumably of what he would physically do to the World Series ring.

This looks like they're trying to capture the look of the baseball gang from The Warriors.

I don't mind the caps so much. But if the uniform is what Corsi has up here, I will personally kill Corsi.
Yes, yes indeed, the messenger must pay.
I will happily take the over on that bet. What doomed them last year? As far as I can tell, it was a dominant performance by John Lackey, and a misplaced popup from Vlad. And no defense on the left side of the infield. Do you honestly believe that Drew will be batting below .200 for the rest of the year? Or that Scutaro and Beltre will lead the league at their position in errors? Or that the rest of our schedule will be against playoff contenders? You can be as calm as you want, you're still out of your mind.::kickedredinthehead::4.18.2010

That makes sense. I remember reading somewhere one of Werner or Henry loves that double-socks logo. I'd bet the new "alternate" is something featuring those pretty heavily.

It's not awful, but not a huge fan.

Not awful.

Not that good either.

Nevertheless, I'm open to this if (and only so long as) it means getting rid of their Beer N' Blood Sausage Softball League unis.

The hat is ok for fans a la the camo hat etc. but not for the official hat. That hat and some bling and all we'll need is Kanye West doing the public address job and spinning tunes.

That needs to be outlined in white. The navy outlining with a navy hat looks like shit.
