Wrong. They could put a freaking footlocker shirt on, and most fans wouldn't notice. It takes about 10 seconds of paying attention to a game to see what they're wearing. They're not stupid, they're just not thorough.

I get the same feeling when I see Air Force stuff portrayed incorrectly (uniforms worn wrong, for example).

I take it back, it is stupid. They're not gaining a damn thing by using the old style shirts, but they're making themselves look stupid to the thousands of referees who know better.
