I say the basketball short is way better today. It looks 100 times better than the old school way. Watch a NBA game from 30 years ago, and the players look like they just got back from a gay pride parade with those short shorts. The old uniform would make the Village People proud. The game looked like it was played in the Castro district of SF. The longer short makes you look more straight. Like you will be chasing broads after the game.

I agree with all you stated in your post! Those old short shorts were extremely gay!
