The Brooklyns

The Dodgers will wear throwback Brooklyn Dodgers uniforms for 6 midweek home games this year. This to honor their rich heritage and to sell some Brooklyn jerseys and caps of course. Nothing is done without money involved.
While this is all fine and good, the Dodgers should actually wear their throwback Brooklyn uniforms when they play the Mets in New York. That would be very interesting to see. Especially if they took a team picture in front of Citi Field which was designed to look similar to the entrance and exterior of Ebbets Field.
I wonder how an old-time Brooklyn Dodgers fan would feel to see the team that deserted the city and broke millions of hearts back in New York wearing Brooklyn on the front of the jersey and a "B" on the front of the cap? Might be some misty-eyed old timers if they saw that. I imagine it would be very emotional.

  1. Thats a great idea. I especially like the Dodgers taking a team photo in their Brooklyn uniforms in front of Citi Field. Never happen though.
