Raptors are Hiding from No One

After a disappointing and, quite frankly, frustrating loss against the far-below-average Boston Celtics earlier this week, the Raptors bounced back to a 94-89 win over the Minnesota Timberwolves on the road.

The Raps wore their camo jerseys in honour of the Canadian Forces. In case you haven't seen them yet:

Yep, these jerseys look hideous. As bad, if not worse than the alternates some college teams tried out. I know the Raps' jerseys are in tribute to the Canadian Forces but come on. Can't the organization think of a more visually appealing way to achieve this? What about the CF logo replacing the Raptor logo at centre court for home games? Anything must be better than these abominations. And while we're at it, why can't the Raptors return to the days of their old colour scheme of purple, black and white? I understand that red and white are Canada's colours but everything about Toronto's old colour scheme and logo were perfect.

Check this out:

Look at that thing. Artistic perfection.

A couple years back I bought a throwback Toronto Raptors Starter pullover jacket. Do you understand how excited I was for that? I'm still giddy. Do I need to get out more and make friends? Probably, but don't take away from the beauty of the Raptors past logo.

So, to recap, the Raptors need to:

• Ditch the camo jerseys and find a better way to honour the CF, and;
• Bring back its old logo and colour scheme

Let's not pretend this isn't the best Raptors' jersey of all time.
