Another Rant On Another Ugly Football Jersey

2011/2012 Home Jersey

My oh my... The new Milan home jersey is an ugly one.
I know ugly football jerseys & I see them in Malaysia all the time. From a Star Trek jersey to a blue bumble bee jersey, the most popular & most publicised EPL club in our country has shamelessly released one ugly jersey after another.
While their new home jersey has gone the way of clean body-fitting red & is looking good, a football club from the fashion capital of the world has decided to make theirs look like pyjamas. Those stripes are too thin & the whites really do not belong.
Perhaps they want to put their opponents to sleep? You never know. People will do anything to get an edge.

The consolation is the new away & third jerseys are great. I like the thin vertical red & black lines on the left side of the Away jersey. I also like the horizontal Italy colours & the low-key Milan logo on the Third jersey. Both minimalistic & very classy.

At RM300 per piece, I'd rather go for my favourite, the 2008/2009 home jersey, which I still wear proudly.

In the end, a football club is kinda like a woman. Both are reasons for men to stay up late at night & get really excited over the weekend. Guys also talk about both with passion & conviction.
Similarly, there are many in the world at varying levels of competition. In the end, you choose one & stick to her because you like what you see & you feel that there is a connection between you two.
One day, this woman is going to look really ugly but it doesn't mean that you leave her. People will criticise her looks & makes jokes about her in your face but you have to stand even more firmly next to her even when, honestly, she looks ugly even to you. You highlight her good qualities instead of focusing on what is skin-deep.

I love AC Milan. Even though she will look ugly this year, the reason I love her is because she is cultured & she is very tactical & careful in her games.

Forza Rossoneri!
