excited to have the expert on all things branding, logos and uniforms @toddradom.bsky.social write a very topical guest essay for BASKETBALL FEELINGS today — what happened to the nba’s christmas day uniforms?
What happened to the NBA's Christmas Day uniforms?
The league is at peak uniform volume, but in the churn of endless branding and marketing we've lost the charm.

Once upon a time the NBA gave us special Christmas Day uniforms—now we get nothing, not even a lousy fruitcake. The excellent hoops journalist @wtevs.bsky.social asked me to write about this for her "Basketball Feelings" Substack, and I ran with it.

On 8/2, fans made a Declaration of Independence urging the Phillies to resign Kyle Schwarber.

It was signed by fans/CBP employees. They threw it in the dugout, hoping he’d see it.

17 days & 6 rainstorms later, we realized it was still there. It gave him goosebumps: www.inquirer.com/phillies/kyl...

This is excellent logo analysis from @barryp.bsky.social @defector.com on the need to “assign deep lore to every decision, as if a sports logo is a Dan Brown puzzle to decode and not a thing that mostly just needs to look cool on merch.”

Buck O’Neil’s eight decades in baseball truly exemplified the lifetime achievement award that bears his name.

The Hall of Famer who impacted the National Pastime as a player, coach, scout and storyteller was born #OTD in 1911.

That Ortiz and Clase reportedly received the EXACT same dollar amount from fixers — in 2025! — as Shoeless Joe Jackson and Lefty Williams did in 1919 is … completely absurd. And another reason why player salaries have very little to do with why these gambling scandals happen.
