MLB uniform controversy; Scott Boras finally succeeds; Trouble brewing for USWNT?
While see-through pants have been the talk of spring training so far, that might not matter as much to fans (at least non-evangelical ones, Woe to Cardinals Nation), as fans don’t tend to want to buy the pants the players are wearing.
