in baseball...on road, it says city name..i.e boston...and they used to always be grey...home were white, w team nick name as in ReD Sox
hockey, football, basketball, all have a system...
back to baseball...alot of teams used to only put players names on back of road jerseys, as home fans were suppossed to know who they were...alot has changed
Names: "A league may provide that the uniforms of its member teams include the names of its players on their backs. Any name other than the last name of the player must be approved by the League President. If adopted, all uniforms for a team must have the names of its players." Again, with the elimination of separate administrations for the American and National leagues, this rule is more often invoked by the minor leagues. (Ichiro Suzuki, when he played for the Seattle Mariners and currently playing for the Miami Marlins, is the last player to have his given name rather than his family name displayed on the back of his uniform, having applied for this permission in order to continue being identified as he had been in the Japanese leagues. Vida Blue also used his first name on the back of his uniform when he played for the San Francisco Giants in the mid-1980s). As of 2010, the New York Yankees, Boston Red Sox and San Francisco Giants do not display their players' names on their home uniforms (the Giants did adopt the names in the 1970s, but removed them from the home uniform in 2000); the Yankees also do not display them on their road uniforms. The New York Mets used alternate home uniforms without last names for the 1999 season. The names were returned the next season. The Chicago Cubs did not have names on their home or alternate jerseys for the 2005 and 2006 seasons. The names are now back on both jerseys. The Los Angeles Dodgers did not have names on the back of their home and road jerseys for the 2005 and 2006 seasons. Names returned on both jerseys in 2007. The Minnesota Twins did not feature names on the back of three different "throwback" alternate uniforms, used in 2009, 2010 and 2011.
The Raiders wore their white jerseys at home for the first time in their history on September 28, 2008 against the San Diego Chargers. The decision was made by Lane Kiffin, who was coaching his final game for the Raiders, and was purportedly due to intense heat.[73] The high temperature in Oakland that day was 78°.[74]
nhl has switched the white dark at least three times since 1960...i thought i had heard,it was home team decision, but i was wrong...but, pretty weird that they keep changing...it was home dark 60-70, then home white from 70-2003 i think, then 2003-2015 home white again, then switched in 2016 because of third jersey...now, no third jersey...montreal said fuck it and went back to a vintage style as their permanent uniform...crazy, man
And it gets worse when you consider the variety of hats issued each year. I know this because of my son's collection...I need the all-star hat, no not that one, the home-run derby all-star warm-up cap....
im just laughing at nhl changing so often ....must be for each new generation of fans...lol...three changes in 45 years? ...yup, thats 3 15 yr olds knocking on Dad wallet
