"Worst Batting Helmets in MLB History"

At least that's what ESPN uniform guru Paul Lukas thinks. And I agree with him.

These things are terrible. Stop the madness! We have to make sure they don't make it to Opening Day. The new uniforms are bad enough, but the new batting helmet is comically bad. There's no way we can sit by passively and let this happen. Sartorial sense is important!

This thread is worthless without pics.

I always wanted to say that.

So what's the proposal here?

We could do an online petition, but those are worthless.

I’m for starting a site that critiques uniforms called “Fire the guy that made those Rangers helmets.”

I second that.

I have an answer to your proposal!

Fire the guy who traded John Danks, and give the guy that created the helmets a raise – this team needed a change in their luck!

Yeah

She big now.

She’s got some massive turkey flapping off the back of her arms.

I’m not being sexist, but many guys would see her in a bar and say “yeah, she’s cute, but, you know.”

I need to think something lasts forever, and it might as well be that state of being that is a game; it might as well be that, in a green field, in the sun.
