    The Magic are sporting their pinstripe throwbacks for the second straight game in a row because they have had success with them this season. Earlier this month against the Nuggets, the Magic wore the throwbacks and won big. Then on Monday against the Bucks, the team decided at the last minute to wear the throwbacks to break their four game losing streak. They went on to beat the Bucks by 15 points and are wearing the jerseys again tonight against the Knicks. "Maybe we should start wearing them all the time," said DeShawn Stevenson after the Bucks win. Maybe DeShawn has a good idea. It would be deja vu for Brian Hill and Bo Outlaw who were here when the Magic originally wore the pinstripe jerseys. Many people think the jerseys are ugly but if it helps the Magic win then I doubt the fans will complain.

    Well, we improve to 3-0 in the pinstripes and have won each of those three games by double digits. I say we were these things more often! According to Grant Hill in the postgame interview today, the NBA has a rule that you can only where alternate jerseys 12 times in a season. Hopefully the Magic can by pass that since we seem to play so much better with them.

    Yes, the Magic wore these jerseys in the 1994-1995 season when Brian Hill led them to the Finals. Maybe that's why were doing so good with them! [​IMG]

    EDIT: Looks like we will be sporting them again on Friday.

    "If it ain't broke, don't fix it," Magic coach Brian Hill joked. "I'm as superstitious as they come, so there's a good chance you might see them again on Friday."</div>

    They are our best jersey's by far, IMO. I love the pinstripe look even on my most hated baseball team the Yankees.
