Illinois: Here come black pants!

[trocared]

take a serious, objective study of our knickers (personally, I love them). They do look a bit silly, no?
Yes, anyone could wear black "sweatpants", but only committed officials will up the ante with the knickers and silly socks. It does stand us apart, no?

I don't mind the knickers. I asked my umpire last night if we should wear shorts this year for JV/FR games and he laughed at me. Again. We wear knickers for EVERYTHING on my crew. We are very interested in these pants, though. With state approval, we'd be wearing these at least half of our varsity games this season.
