Mr. McLane:
Since, 2000, the Houston Astros have had the miserable distinction of having the ugliest uniforms in baseball. You decided to ditch the space-theme look and pattern a new logo and uniforms in a railroad theme (to reflect the old railroad site that Minute Maid Park is built on).
The result: black, reddish-orangish-brick and sand uniforms. These uniforms are on a par of ugliness unequaled by anyone else in baseball right now.
Please return to space-theme uniforms. After all, the team is called the Astros. The name is short for Astronaut and comes from the Greek word for star and is intended to honor Houston's space exploration industry.
I am really starting to miss both the blue and orange of old and even the blue and gold from the nineties. What I'd really love to see is Houston return to the blue and orange and change to a modified version of their shooting star uniforms (which I absolutely loved, and Craig Biggio is said to have liked also). Or, perhaps Houston can borrow the blue, red and silver from NASA's logo and come up with a new, space-themed logo.
