boston_logo_thumbRumor has it that the Red Sox may be changing their logo. The beloved "B" that has graced their hats and helmets for decades may be a thing of the past. I started watching the Sox in "76 and when they changed their red and blue caps to just blue it took me awhile to get used to it. Let alone their blah grey road uniforms of the 1980's, those were truly disgusting. I'm all for change but we are going to have to see this new logo for ourselves. I hope they put a fan vote on it.

I can't believe something so insignificant as this has me worried. I guess I love this team that much. Our Co-owner and web manager Bob Day  broke this story in our 24/7 news section and my heart just dropped. What can they possibly do, put the two red stockings on the caps.

Honestly it took me a few years to warm up to these uniforms with the red stripes down the front so what's next. The Patriots needed a uniform change and they got it right. Let's hope for the same with the Red Sox. Be afraid, be very afraid.

They sure sprang this on everyone suddenly. Logos and uniforms are sacred to most fans. The mere news of the change will no doubt hit some like a baseball bat. However, self-reinventio n is the fad of these times, so I suppose this should come as no surprise. The Pats changed their "look" as have the Celtics subtlety. The Bruins just introduced new third jerseys, the NFL came out with a new logo and Oprah's talking about going on a new diet. I reckon the message is, "Hey everybody, look at the new me -- so much better than the old one!" Most often though, it tastes like the "New Coke."

I am laughing my behind off right now! I hated new coke and they thought it would work. Right on! You sure hit the nail on the head with everyone trying to reinvent themselves. Uniforms are sacred and they have red, green jerseys already. I think this may be a new way to generate some new cash flow,what do you think?

I'll swear I don't know what the problem is, but I don't think I've ever seen a time when so many people were obsessed with how they look as they are these days. I gotta feeling that is at least part of it if not the whole thing. It doesn't seem to matter whether they are feeling too good about themselves, just start feeling better about themselves, or feel the need to start feeling better about themselves...they are changing stuff.

It's not just uniforms and logos, it's everything. If they think they look too well off, they try to look poor, if they're poor, they try to look rich. If they're not "muscling up", they're "trimming down." If they're not growing something, they're shaving it off. If they think they look too old, they are trying to look younger. If they think they look too young, they are trying to look older. I don't think there's a woman or man in my part of town that hasn't had one new face, two different chests, three different noses, four new lips and five wardrobe changes in the last six months. Apparently, it's what's hot! [rolls eyes]

I hear you,now if you have grey hair you have to "get back in the game" when really you should be proud and happy that you have made it to a that point in life and with the "greys" comes knowledge and wisdom your dumb ass didn't have before when you thought you knew it all. Television is at most time unwatchable, with commercial breaks every three minutes, and now they tell you about all of the ailments you can get or will get and try this medication but it may cause this and that and even death. O.K. I'll try that yeah right. This new media age is both a blessing and a curse. they knew it would happen and big brother is now watching for sure. People are botoxing so much they look like feline cats and no one seems happy with who they are. its awful. I can go on and on but I'll close on a humorous note with one word, I know you'll get a kick out of this........Extenze! Ha ha ha ha
