Banshees don’t wear black

A lot of Sharks fans like the “black armor” unis. Others hate the “black pajamas.” I don’t hate them but they do look like pajamas to me. Pajamas are cute, but I don’t like the color. It is all wrong for the occasion. It’s like wearing black to a Mardis Gras party or a picnic. People do that but it shows they are missing the point. Teal may not be the most festive color but at least it’s a color with personality. It’s not blue, it’s not green, it clashes with red in a pleasing way. It’s much better than black.
Black is “cool,” the color of chic and formal events and drear and government motorcades. It says “I’m so awesome I don’t need to do anything to make you notice me.” It is a background color, stealthy and discreet and afraid to choose. It makes you look more pale and smaller than you are. I know hockey has a fat phobia but come on, live a little!
