I was a bit disappointed that the wife didn't notice it for over a month.
Anyway, yeah, the Yankees looked silly and even arrogant with their former facial hair policy, so out of step with the times. And maybe even a drawback at times when dealing with free agents.
Look for them to put player names on jersey backs in the near future, I predict. I would have thought they would have done that first.
But just please, no more uniform advertising. The arm patches are bad enough. The Yankees have "Starr (Insurance)" on theirs, but at least it contains the word "star."
Some other teams' patches are laughable. How would you like to play with the word "Sheetz" on your sleeve?
