Our perspective on what recently occurred in Provo. Gear talk or die.

Lax All Stars recently published photos from the BYU Boise State game courtesy of Victoria Harris and All American Shots. We wanted to give BYU and BSU the 412 treatment. Join us. After all, The Rock is back.

BYU recently bailed on STX for Reebok. We didn’t care for the move especially when you consider that Reebok wouldn’t even make custom gloves for the Y. These gloves are stock navy with an embroidered logo.

But it gets worse for the Reebok gloves because the navy on BYU’s uniforms is so dark, it makes the gloves look purple.

Apparently, the flag is a new pregame thing in Provo. Take a look at all the Nike cleats. Why don’t they have Reebok cleats?

Guess they aren’t getting the full treatment from RBK.

What’s happening with Boise’s uniforms?

Super blank fronts with a semi tramp stamp.

Why semi tramp stamp? It’s kind of art. It’s kind of text. Usually we don’t consider text to be a tramp stamp although we still don’t encourage it for your uniform. Text on your shooting shirt is another story. However, this tramp stamp or non tramp stamp or confused tramp stamp is muddled by the blue font inside. Who wants to put something that big on their lower backs that no one can read? Of course, we know it says Boise State but if you didn’t know it was Boise State could you read it?

How about their helmets? Sans decals. To what point and purpose? Because their decals didn’t arrive yet or they are going bare? The trend in 2011 is to put as many decals as you can on one lid. Wonder if the Little Sisters of the Poor are going in another direction. Time will tell.

Not talking about their Gait gloves. Speaking of Reebok…

Emporio Armani EA7 and Reebok

F. These are aggressive.

What wrestling technique is he using?

Charlie Manuel wants an extension before the season. Bro, bro, bro, bro, brooooo, you’re 77 years old and you sit in the dugout. The NL is a joke. You have a video game rotation. You don’t need an extension.
