May 18, 201214 yr The more and more I think about it, I realize how goofy it is. Can one of our photoshoppers put Stan Van Gundy in a Magic jersey? Or Rex Ryan in shoulder pads?
May 18, 201214 yr I advocate the Mike Scioscia look. Warm up on top with the rest of the normal uni. He is required by MLB rules to have a jersey on underneath. I remember Terry Francona being checked by the umpires prior to a Red Sox/Yankees game a few years back. I'm not saying they all wear them underneath their pullovers, but those are apparently the rules. As for my opinion, a team pullover with khaki pants and turf shoes would be the best option.
May 18, 201214 yr The more and more I think about it, I realize how goofy it is. Can one of our photoshoppers put Stan Van Gundy in a Magic jersey? Or Rex Ryan in shoulder pads? It's sort of silly. Then again, baseball is a game of tradition. I know I started a thread on thus a couple years ago. It is incredibly goofy. He is required by MLB rules to have a jersey on underneath. I remember Terry Francona being checked by the umpires prior to a Red Sox/Yankees game a few years back.

Come on people. Sweet Lou would have looked stupid ( I know, I know) out there kicking dirt, and throwing bases wearing anything other than a baseball uniform, especially khaki pants. How many player/coaches have the NFL and NBA had?

May 18, 201214 yr I advocate the Mike Scioscia look. Warm up on top with the rest of the normal uni. As I recall Sweet Lou did the same quite a few times at Cincy. Have no problem with managers wearing a uni (or the half uni), I like tradition.
May 18, 201214 yr As I recall Sweet Lou did the same quite a few times at Cincy. Have no problem with managers wearing a uni (or the half uni), I like tradition. I don't ever remeber Lou doing that. He did wear his Reds jacket a lot, but I can't ever recall him wearing a warm up top.
May 18, 201214 yr I don't ever remeber Lou doing that. He did wear his Reds jacket a lot, but I can't ever recall him wearing a warm up top. You could be right. I was just sitting here wondering after I had posted that, if Marge would have allowed him to do it.
May 18, 201214 yr It doesn't look silly to me because that's the way it has always been. Actually, that's not true. Ever hear of Connie Mack?
May 18, 201214 yr Actually, that's not true. Ever hear of Connie Mack? Perhaps I should have said, that's the way it's been since I've been alive.
May 18, 201214 yr Perhaps I should have said, that's the way it's been since I've been alive. Me too, for that matter. I do think it would be cool to see some of them dressed to the nines like Mack did, or in football like how Tom Landry did.
May 19, 201214 yr Me too, for that matter. I do think it would be cool to see some of them dressed to the nines like Mack did, or in football like how Tom Landry did. Didn't the NFL squash that idea when former 49ers coach Mike Nolan wanted to wear a suit at a game? I'm thinking they told him no, it had to be officially licensed team gear.
May 19, 201214 yr This is the same league that has 2 different set of rules or each league. I'm not surprised. Seems silly to me as well.
