And I am not sacrificing my accomplishments for a school who cannot read the rulebook or review the rules. And I really have no sympathy in this state where for the last 3 years or so this has been a big deal. It is like knowing you are driving in a place that will ticket you for 2 miles over the speed limit and going around and going 10 miles over and then complaining you had to pay the fine.

I certainly understand where you're coming from. Good analogy as well.

I doubt the school has the funds to run out and get new uniforms the remainder of this season, so it seems like they're going to be stuck with this for every "home" game the rest of the season.

That is, if the officials assigned to their games choose to enforce the rule. I know that this year isn't the first that Morgan Park has had the pinstripe jerseys, either.
Maybe it needs to start with the jersey makers themselves. When a school calls in an order, the manufacturer can tell the school whether or not the jersey is legal.
