I hate this descriptive term, basically because it is an inaccurate measure and too many take the term literally.

What if a team has no letters on the front of their jersey?

What if the name on the front of a jersey is angled? Are we talking the first letter or the last? The highest or lowest?

As a boxer wears his/her trunks high, what if a team wears their name low across their stomach?

Am I starting to get absurd? Yep, just about there. Unfortunately, you still have people citing "the letters" as a strike zone boundary and it just isn't so.

Sorry, one of my pet peeves
OK, "top of the letters when the letters are applied in a manner and in a place where they are traditionally applied on diamond sports jerseys..."
