Because the colors are black. The color black is somewhat ominous, sinister and dark - therefore appropriate. In the 80s and early 90s gangbangers were into wearing LA Kings apparel for similar reasons.

That's alarmingly racist. I demand an apology.

I don't see colors, not even black or white.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought there are several teams whose colors might be gang-related besides the White Sox & Raiders. Also, I believe the Los Angeles Kings now sport purple on their uniforms nowadays...

Cause they dont have a gay nickname liked the Cubbies.

Sure. The Sox colors were big gang colors in the early 90s. Probably still is. I canceled my subscribtion to Gang Banger Weekly a few years ago so I'm not sure.

Don't blame the Sox for gang violence. Even if they didn't have the uniforms the gang bangers would have found something else to wear to commit crimes.

Now you might not understand me
Cause I'ma rob you in Compton and blast you in Miami
Then we gon creep to South Central
On a Street Knowledge mission, as I steps in the temple
Spot him, got him, as I pulls out my strap
Got my chrome to the side of this White Sox hat
You tryin to check my homey, you better check yo self
Cause when you diss Dre you diss yourself, MOTHERFUCKER

The Sox current logo looks like an upside down Two Six handjesture. Gangs that oppose them would wear Sox gear.

Other teams that have been popular with gangs over the decades have been UNC, Steelers and Pirates (Latin Kings), and hats with the Yankee and Dodger logos (but in the gangs' colors).

Steelers? Gang apparel? A gang of meaty Polish guys?

I'll say this for the Cubs gear. You never hear of ganbangers wearing their shit. You just don't look tough while wearing stuff that has a little Cubbie walking out of a "C". Plus Blue and Red aren't tough colors.

Blue and red are just beautiful, vibrant and classy. Lets face it, black and silver are boring. Gotta have more brightly pigmented colors to have great uniforms. Hell, even the road grey's are really brightened up by the blue and red. No doubt that the Sox "colors" are preffered by gang bangers. But thats a popularity contest I am sure the Cubs would rather not be associated with.

I guess I would rather be a fan of a team with some gang stuff then what the Sox used to wear!


Now they need to work on the diseased looking Mascot. Maybe a Pitbull to go with the gang theme?

Most of us like Frank. I just think there's some unwritten rule that new members must eventually get into an argument with Frank at some point.
