that’s part of the reason i like em. Adds some contrast which i like. Makes the orange numbers pop more and easier to see. Im sure its also why they wear the black outlines/names in practice. Biggest reason is prob nostalgia honestly. Thats what i grew up seeing them wear. These days they wear some hideous alternate jersey so often im just happy to see them wear traditional orange and white however it comes.Weren't the black outlines around the numbers introduced to make it easier for the broadcasters calling the games to read them? That's my recollection. Of course, that was before the days of HD TV. I don't miss the black outlines at all. The White unis are clean. The thing I don't like is how the pants have turned into bicycle shorts.
