Sorry for your loss. But i was just asking as far as visual perception, how does X and T unis compare to the nation. I thought they were above and beyond most schools.

Well....first things first....BANANA is awful.....no sugar coating that. But their uniforms are right up there......Don Bosco's are excellent....I'd say most of the top schools in their respective states are comparable..

First my condolences to anyone who has lost a family member to breast cancer or any other cancer for that matter. I have the same question though. Last weekend we were told by the youth coaches for my son's team that all players were going to wear pink socks last weekend. Well..........I had to shell out 7.50 for one pair and my question is how much of that went to cancer research. Let's face it 46 players on a team each have to get a pair of pink socks is a nice run of money for the company as you do that over and over again all over the country at all kinds of levels. Its almost as if it has gone from memorializing breast cancer victims and breast cancer awareness to a marketing strategy and that just sickens me.

If they got $1 from each pair...that's $1 more than before......any $ is worth it, IMO.

So...forcing parents to purchase pink socks that many could not afford to begin with is ok? For one game? Also, I have no proof that even a penny from each pair purchased went to research.

I like the "banana" look. But part of that is because I'm used to it. X's offense wears gold on gold during practice.

Players dont earn them, everyone on the team even the jv gets an x on their helmet. It represents district wins. Also if memory serves correct, playoff wins merit an x as well.

 

Well, I will yield to your knowledge of the program, but it seems like I have seen several X stickers on the back of the helmets... more than just the district wins (2). And there have been no playoff games yet.

Bananna may not be very appealing to the eye, but as far as dry fit and the feel, the color scheme doesn't make those jerseys not "top quality"

May be players doing that, but they come from district wins.

Agree 10000% RP. And even more, the awareness on the issue is NEEDED.

I agree. The bananas should go.

Bananas are nice. :banana:

I'd like to see something with some tiger stripes... not like the Bengals, but in that ballpark.

Plus, I wish one of the schools would wear a throwback uniform (in their game against Manual or Male) to honor the Flaget Braves!

Looked up Bosco's uni's and maybe its just me. I like the dry fit look and they're jerseys are in no way dry fit.

There were 10 schools, Cincy X is one of those. Also leave the bannanas out :lol:. But honestly the pics and videos ive seen most schools dont even have dry fit jerseys. They look worn or pop warner esque. I just dont understand it.

This only strengths the elitist stereotype that many have for X and T. How dare any school not have dry fit jerseys. Get a clue.

I really hate the canary look from X when they wear yellow on yellow but to be fair I'm not a fan of the pickle look when T wears green on green.
