Case Study: Why Does The NBA Wear Their White Color Uniforms

Decent Essays
Why does the NBA wear their white color uniforms, home and color uniforms away. I think that the color uniforms away and white home should switch because the other team coming in their cool color uniforms, and the home team wears their ugly white uniforms home if the team becomes the winner then they look even cooler than the home team and the home team is in their arena.
All of the 30 owners of the 30 teams in the National Basketball Association, is probably mad in the uniform, policy because it is kind of retarded they have to sit up in the sweets they are rooms in the Arena can barely can see the players play the game and how the NBA is set up.
Why dosen’t the owner of the NBA change the uniforms and switch it around because a majority

    This change would mean that the offensive logo would be less emphasized. Fans of this organization show up to games in redface and perpetuate stereotypes of Native Americans because that is the image their logo portrayed. The owner Paul Dolan said, “we do have empathy for those who take issue with it,’ (…) ‘We have minimized the use of it and we’ll continue to do what we think is appropriate.’” Dolan still did make the statement that the logo is a “part of our history and legacy. ”2 Knowing this and that the “home cap with the Wahoo logo was the top seller last year, Cleveland.com reports” 2 fast forward to baseball post season this year October.…

    For the away uniforms I decided these consistent with the color scheme of the logo. So, I used the browns signature colors, brown and orange, and then added the gray color that is identical to the color of the dog bone in the log. I thought this would help to draw a connection between the logo and players on the field. I also knew that I wanted the top to use more orange and then have a pop of brown and then the opposite for the bottoms. I made the socks orange because it would blend in with the kneepads of the pants.…

    Fans that have been supporting a team name for years would feel different about the change and not support the team’s new name. If a team has had its name for years there is no reason it should be changed. An example of a professional team with controversy of its name today would be the Washington Redskins. People of the Indian American race are arguing that the name Redskins is racist and dishonoring, but from a fans standpoint the team name is honoring the Redskins “The point was that the Redskins owner at the time obviously believed that Lone Star Dietz was a Native American and named the team to honor Native Americans and be motivated by their heritage, Waldron.” Sports teams with a long time history mean more to fans and changing names would take away from that.…

    Racial or ethnic discrimination has been prevalent for a period of time. It’s continued to show up in various forms and sometimes indirectly.

    The controversy of whether or not offensive Native American mascots and sports team names should be changed has been up for debate for a few years now. The sides are mostly the same: those who want to keep the names and mascots and those who believe the names and mascots are offensive and should be changed. However, Hayley Munguia in her article for FiveThirtyEightSports, “The 2,128 Native American Mascots People Aren’t Talking About,” shows readers that there are more than those two perspectives. The most well known point of view is that of the team supporters, those who want to keep the mascots and team names. For the most part, this group consists of fans, alumni, benefactors, and players.…

    The Last of the Term Redskin Sports teams give cities and people a sense of pride like no other. Sounds of fans cheering for their teams represent the pride of the city or town, but what if instead of a prideful name, fans were cheering and screaming for an offensive team name such as the Washington Redskins. Mascots that fans know and love make the games more exciting for fans, but if that mascot is offensive, there is no reason to be cheering for such a team. The same idea goes for the team’s logo. Teams like the Washington Redskins should change their names, mascots, and logos because they are extremely offensive to some people.…

    Mascots have caused much controversy dating back to the 20th century. The mascot causing the most controversy is the Native American. Other mascots such as Arabians, Irish, and African Americans to name a few also have issues with being derogatory and racist. There are two sides to the story: the side who think it’s honoring the minority races in America while others thinks it’s racist and dishonoring. The controversy of mascots seems to be a never ending battle that could very easily be argued correctly on either side.…

    What’s in a team name? Grittiness and toughness and determination. It is just one part of an organization, but a team name can be the fuel for reaching success and wanting to achieve greatness. A team name is something that rallies a group of people together to fight for one common cause, which is winning a championship, not something to make fun of or to portray in the wrong way. When it comes to the issue of controversial mascots, there are several disagreements.…

    I do think that teams should have to change their name if it is disrespectful to other teams or players. But I think it should be something a little more disrespectful, like I don't see anything wrong with the team name redskins. The brownes I would have a problem with or the twinkies especially little eyes that would be very racist well I think so anyway. Teams should not have these kind of names to begin with. Now after they made it their team name you have a problem.…

    As he claimed in his article “It isn't easy or inexpensive to remove ethnic and racial stereotypes from college and professional sports. When Stanford University changed from the Indians to the Cardinal in 1972, recriminations were bitter. Richard Lyman, a friend of mine, was president of Stanford at the time. He said the university lost millions of alumni dollars in the short run, but it was the right thing to do.” Even though it might cost a lot to change the name of a team and it Nieto 3 also may not be very easy.…

    Racial segregation is the separation of humans based on their ethnicity or color. (Long, Russ ch8) Segregation was mainly present in the years of 1849-1950s. The “separate but equal” called laws that were made to separate humans was a law that prohibited those with different ethnicities from using the same restrooms as whites, eating at the same place as white, and speaking to whites otherwise the minority would be severely punished. Racial segregation is often said to be similar to racial discrimination, but that is false.…

    Today, organizations, much the same as schools are getting serious about the clothing regulation. "The City spent about $45,000 on polos, tops, and wools – green for parks and light blue for examinations – that bear a city logo." (Marcus, 1). Higher city authorities need the majority of the workers to look uniform. Dissimilar to the diverse schools, "The new code was produced with data from city workers, Geissner said.…

    School Uniforms School uniforms are not a new concept because the idea has been around since the beginning of organized education. It has recently become more of a controversial topic since more schools are requiring the students to wear uniforms. School uniforms are beneficial to students by taking away unneeded distractions and putting more attention on academics, reducing peer pressure and bullying, and causing unity throughout the school. When students wear uniforms to school it helps them focus more on academics. The uniforms cause the students to feel more grown up.…
