St. Patrick's Day is coming up -- it's March 17th for those of you to whom this is not a particularly big deal -- and that's come to mean five things. 1) Booze, 2) Booze, 3) Booze, 4) NBA teams were unsightly green uniforms, and 5) Booze.The NBA actually seems to be looking at St. Patrick's Day as more of a "season" than a one-day event. From the 11th through the 13th, the Bulls, Celtics, and Knicks will be wearing special commemorative St. Patrick's Day uniforms.
I don't really get why the NBA does this. Not that I'm opposed to it, because I'm not ... it can be a fun, quirky little thing. But really, why does the NBA care so much about St. Patrick's Day? Certainly, they don't actually sell a lot of these green jerseys, do they? Who's buying those things? I don't get it. Why not the same treatment for other holidays?
If we're going to do this, why not have the Bucks take the court wearing antlers on the first day of deer-hunting season? Why not have the Spurs take the court reeking of tequila and wearing sombreros on Cinco de Mayo? Let's have the 76ers play in top hats and fake Lincoln beards on Presidents Day, let's make the Wizards play in bunny suits on Easter, and let's have the Timberwolves play in uniforms made entirely of leaves on Arbor Day.
