Seriously, it is like a 75-25 split in favour of retros.
I bed the white retro would have been a massive seller.
Like WTF.
I was getting confident that they were going to do the right thing.
Useless.

Maybe part of the right thing is driving a new revenue opportunity. Going retro's doesn't likely represent their biggest revenue opportunity, given many of the fans that will buy jersey's will already own one and less people will feel the need to refresh.
It is a business, and outside of the revenue, I'm excited to get a new different jersey. Of course it will suck if I don't like them, and I know I like the retro's, but calling them idiots seems silly. Their jobs are far more complex than simply do exactly what the fans on the internet are asking for, it's do make the business as successful as possible, and it's very easy to see how simply going to an existing jersey concept might not be the best money making avenue for the team.
