I don't like it when they change their uniform for any special purpose. I am very aware of breast cancer, gay pride, prostate cancer, Jackie Robinson, etc. I watch baseball to be LESS aware of these things for a couple of hours. But since they do promote these topics it sets them up for requests to "raise awareness" for all sorts of other things and whenever they say no, then of course some folks are going to be upset.

I agree. I don't like pink for Mother's Day or blue for Father's day or camo for Memorial Day or Spanish team names for Hispanic Day. And the "Player's Weekend" is also BS, particularly this year with the black and white uniforms.
