Crew SC for the second consecutive week donned its new Columbus flag kits, the ones with the gradiated yellow jerseys and the periwinkle shorts. The shirts are selling well, by the way. The pants? Who knows?
The plan is to sport the new uniforms on 10 to 15 occasions this season. Maybe, however, it’s time to shelve the new duds for a while. Maybe it is time to pull the Black & Gold out of the dresser.
The Crew lost 2-1 to the Philadelphia Union at Mapfre Stadium on Saturday night. The Crew fell to 0-2 — and its next three games are on the road.
