Why does the NFL care about their players having uniformity? Saftey? Nah...Its so these millionaires can run around and actually look like a TEAM. Once in awhile you will see a player with his shirt untucked or a sock down...but you can rest assured he will be fined. The NFL has "uniform police" that watch for uniform infractions at each game. The officials don't have to worry about it.
Wouldn't it be nice if the NF could afford these "uniform police"? Since they can't...we as officials must enforce the non-sloppiness.
Again, I think basketball should be about the TEAM...if you want to stand out, do something spectacular on the court.
If you want individuality...sing Karoke or something.
BTW...I bet some of us remember when we played for a team in school and the dress code we abided by...remember, letterman jackets...ties...etc.
