I'm sick and tired of having to buy new crap just because the college level guys are switching to blue bean bags nee' black, wider stripes, etc.

That's up to your state or association, of course, but I buy new gear just about every year, so a change isn't THAT big a deal. I have 4 nice, perfectly fine and recently purchased football shirts with the 1" stripes and about half a dozen that could be wearable at a scrimmage or subvarsity game. (I'm searching for an iPhone app to catalog all my basketball gear!), I would have no problem purchasing 4 new 2" striped shirts if we switched, knowing that we wouldn't go back. If we do, I'll gladly send you my stash of 1" stripes!
I would understand your argument better in the context of the baseball guys -- having to keep multiple shirts of different colors. Yeah, that'd be a huge pain. But we're going to have to replace our shirts at some point anyway.
