Happy Bobcats Seem Really Happy With Their New Uniforms
What do you suppose Kemba Walker, Gerald Henderson, and Bismack Biyombo are so darn happy about? Think it's because their season mercifully ended some weeks ago?

Isaac Redman Appears Nonplussed With The Steelers' New Retro Uniforms
The Steelers unveiled these new uniforms today, which are meant to harken back to 1934, when the team was (also) called the Pirates and society had no conception of retinas being spontaneously burned.

The Diamondbacks Already Have Four Throwback Jerseys To Choose From
Just a reminder that the Diamondbacks came into existence in 1998, yet still have four options for their now-traditional throwback jersey night.
