I feel like the whites are so bland. I don't want to watch my team wear bland when I go to the game.

I hate how the WHL switches it up at the half way point.

How does that work anyway? Not all teams play the middle of the season on the same date. Some teams are a game or two past the halfway point when other teams are just reaching it. Does the road team have to bring two sets of jerseys around that time? Or does it just switch over on a certain date and if you don't wear one of the jerseys as much as the other then that's just too bad?

One thing I do know is my buying patterns. When I was a kid I had one home and one away jersey because I had to have both. Then for the pedestal jersey years I bought the red jersey because I hated the white. When they switched away from the pedestal, I bought the white only because I hated black jerseys for a red team and I wanted a jersey and I wound up never wearing it. I haven't bought a white jersey since. I have bought 4 reds in that time. 6 reds to two whites. I'm sure merchandise sales would also show that the home dark jerseys sell better than the white away jerseys.
