If I remember correctly, when the red jersey was re-introduced back in '03 or whenever it was, the number and name were both black. It was very brief, however, because the black-on-red of the name was particularly hard to read for broadcasters, so they changed the name to white but kept the number black.

I'm not sure exactly how many games the name was black-on-red, but I think that's how it happened. Maybe someone else can remember better?

Regardless, I do agree that the name and number should both match on this latest example. Just make it red text and that's a pretty nice shirt.
