Question

Has anyone heard that there is a new style shirt? Gray/black instead of white/black.

none of us can wear them. There is no place that most of us would be allowed to wear them. I do not see my state or many other changing their rules to allow it. Their not like the Baseball uniforms. You do not see the colleges officials wearing them on a wide scale.

Peace

We have used this new shirt here in AZ for the last three years. It is at the game officials option for HS games and mandatory for Jr College games. Of course, all of the officials working the game need to wear the same shirt.

It is a pullover V-neck, solid gray with black trim on the collar and end of sleeve.

One drawback to this shirt is that it makes a large person look larger.

We have a new state commissioner here that will probably prohibit this shirt soon.

it's ugly

Pac-10 officials wore the Grey w/Black pinstripes shirt during the conference tourney-I know other conferences that used it on occasion-it WILL NOT make it to the high school level anytime soon, and it shouldn't. We're not in the NBA, we needn't try to be in the NBA based on our shirts alone.

I know that years ago that some IAABO boards used a solid grey shirt with navy trim.I think that they then changed to black trim.FIBA officials used to wear a similar shirt.I don't know if they are still in use,or for sale.Maybe MTD Sr. could enlighten us.
Mark,have you heard of these?

I have to agree with Matt. I went to the Official's Choice website and they have them there. I thought they were kind of ugly, personally. I hope we don't end up having to wear them. Just my opinion,

Chuck

our pet beavers like them, and they are insulated properly to give us added protection that we don't have in our igloo's. Oh ya...they might not look as bad when you drink some of our extra strength beer.

they're nice shirts, eh?

Of course, they were white and black before being washed in Molson's, eh?

if we washed our shirts in molson's..there wouldn't be anything left...just a piece of loop for the smitty. That's how strong our beer is compared to that Yankee beer,it's almost acidic. Oh ya.... our olympic gold hockey medals match grey better than they do zebra stripes

heheh

You know why Canadians wash all their clothes in Tide?

Too cold out tide.

Did you hear about the Canadian that married a polar bear?
He had to!!

Works with Aussies and kangaroos,too.
U.P.per's and black bears? -(Oswald's Bear Ranch,mick)!
Yankees and bald eagles?

Note--for Dan--that would not be THE N.Y.Yankers- er.Yankees!
