Tucson Uniforms

The new Tucson Padres unis came out--to me, they are butt-ugly. They are of the same lettering of the SD Padres of the '78-'84 era. Since it appears that the Padres AAA team will be in Tucson for some time (as the San Diego-area stadium is currently on life support), I would imagine the unis will be changing again very soon, as I can't see many people buying them. The bad part about all this for MLB Padres fans, is that there are rumours the MLB club will also be going back to those uniforms very soon. Ugh.

ehh

They aren't great, but I don't hate them.

I actually like the logo.

Sorry, Fez, I am from San Diego, and I had to live through those unis (albeit a different color scheme) when the Padres wore them. I didn't like them then, and still don't. I don't mind Tucson's colors, but the font...plus the cap would be good as the BP cap. I'll put it another way--I have caps of all Padres farm teams, but that will stop with Tucson. When I go to Tucson this summer, I will proudly wear my Portland Beavers cap.

They're not going to care what cap you wear as long as you buy a beer. :-)

Well, after all, it is Tucson and it will be summer time, so I am in agreement with you. Besides, don't forget, beer is food too.

Beer is Food!!!

I agree.

Sadly - the Tucson Padres are no more. they are in El Paso ---=


However, the Freedom Professional League is attempting to place a team in Tucson -- but it appears as if the city does not want them there --- I hate to see Tucson without any baseball.....
