White-Outs
..or Blue-Outs...Green-Outs...whatever...
I've kinda had it with them.
They are so 2006.
I'm going to start supporting being a grown-up and wearing regular effing clothing.
Seriously, there's something about it that rubs be the wrong way.
That's all I got.

Watching this Okie game, I think it would be funny if they dyed their hair white, too. It would look way whiter than it already does.

The White-Outs in particular make me cringe. It looks like some sort of cult gathering around the court, especially when everybody is sitting and showing little emotion (and/or half of the seats have only t-shirts on them, like in a Miami earlier in the playoffs).
I thought the Mavs' Blue-Out was neat though, so I'm not going to complain too much about the general concept until we lose a game in a "Color"-Out.

They don't bother me at all, personally. May be because I'm a huge college sports fan and that's typical fare. Dunno. I thought our Game 3 blue-out looked awesome.

I kind of like them now that it's the first time ever in the recent history of DFW sports the Mavs executed one properly. (Though, reports were that folks were getting prodded and guilted into wearing the shirts over their important, douchy business attire)

I like them since I get a free tshirt. Hopefully cubes will do another one. The secod home game the same folks didnt make it so it was back to their own shirts.

Yeah, I noticed that the second game was a half-blue out.
I was surprised Cubes didn't give 'em away again.

This is such a fadish concept...We'll never see it again after a few more seasons...

the Mavs blue out looked really great on tv. Its when not everyone does it that it looks kind of lame. I don't think white outs really make it. The Oklahoma one looked like everyone was sitting around in their underwear.
