Imagine if today's Cubs wore this uniform

What if this was the regular road uniform for the 2008 Cubs? Goodbye red, white, and blue. Welcome pure charcoal gray.

Great black and white photo. Were the uniforms truly grey?

I had to look it up, since I wasn't sure if Matt was just making some sort of joke because of the black-and-white-ness of the picture. The road uniforms were actually grey.

Hey, as long as they don't wear an ugly braided belt...

Imagine that grey being either solid red or solid blue. You'd either have a bunch of elmos or smurfs running around.
Also, the font in this comment box is all screwy with it's spacing. Do not like.

What I want to know is why the guy on the right is grabbing the other guy's butt.
