Peace

I can already imagine all the MN officials complaining cause they have to buy new shirts. Most of those complaining will have not bought a new shirt in a decade.

Amusing to note that the official scorer in the background is wearing stripes!

Or they could be like me, they bought a bunch of shirts years ago and has not had to buy a shirt in years because I take care of them. I probably have like 10 active shirts that I can use just for high school alone. I used two of them this year to put a patch on them for another state.

I would be with them if I had to buy brand new shirts for the coming year. I remember when I bought those gray shirts for that short time and then we hardly wore them. Waste of money.

Ohio likes to change our uniforms every 2-3 years. I think this is year two? I think of the sublimated shirts so we probably due for a new shirts soon.

I'm annoyed by them mainly because I bought two new shirts in December... I could've waited till next season for new shirts, but I figured I might as well get them as a 2017 tax deduction.

Then, about 3 weeks later, I find out about the new shirts. State Tourney officials this year get theirs for free... the rest of us have to buy them next year. They'll be "optional", but I'm guessing we'll end up wearing the new ones 90% of the time. They become mandatory in 2020-2021.

Plus, my plan to 'recycle' my old shirts by having my mom make them into child-sized ones for my son... I can still do that, but we won't match anymore.

I'm also worried that we'll only have one supplier... some suppliers shirts fit me better than others.

(Also, I'm proud to say that two of the three officials in that picture are from my association, and I've worked with both of them).

That is just silly. In my 25 years, we've had 2 shirts. The first was the byron collar. That was replaced with the standard V-neck.

To change more than every 10-15 years is just padding someones pocketbook.

Least we havent had to change pants...yet.

Actually I think the pre-game jacket change will probably be coming next now that I think of it. Its been even longer since that was changed. Wouldnt really mind a change of shirts again as the new ones have the US Flag on them, that privilege was always reserved for those that were in the services.

Softball was worse. Of course playing the sports, for a while, you were lucky to buy a bat in baseball that would last 2 years before the rules changed.
