Cover of the Day

The Washington Wizards have come out with a new uniform for next year.  We actually applaud this decision.  First, the previous costumes were laughable.  Second, it's a shame Michael Jordan's legacy will forever be slightly tarnished by that aforementioned jersey; almost as bad as him wearing a Birmingham Barons minor league baseball uni.  Lastly, these jerseys are actually pretty cool, as they are both simple and offer a little homage to the past.  See today's Cover of the Day from 1978 to see the comparison...

* Quick observation...is Elvin Hayes' teammate really wearing an away jersey while the rest of the team is wearing their home uniforms?  Look closely at the cover.  The Washington Bullets are clearly at home against the San Antonio Spurs, yet Reggie McSmooth back there forgot to pack his white home uniform.
