Oh Hey, New Sixers Uniforms

Listen, if there's one thing UTB loves, it's sports. So of course there was no way we could just sit around our lavish headquarters, drinking our raspberry lemonades, dabbing our noses with sunscreen and enjoying our mudbaths when such important, Philadelphia-related basketball news came across our desks. Ladies and gentlemen: the 76ers have changed their uniforms.

This is a big deal! Uniform changes lead to championships. Look at the Denver Broncos. They were a joke of a franchise. And then in 1997, John Elway took to his sewing machine and was like, "Enough already, guys. I got this." So he whipped up these little numbers and two years later, he was the proud owner of two Super Bowl rings, one Super Bowl MVP trophy, and a couple amazing weekends riding the teacups at Disney World.

Then in 2002 the Angels changed their uniforms and won a title. Last year, the Rays changed theirs and...lost to the Phillies. Whatever, close enough. So many examples, not enough interest in researching more.

But trust us, the Sixers are basically guaranteed the title in 2010. Do you know what that means? Another crazy celebration! Hooray!
