Question: Are the Pacers getting new uniforms this year? It is way past time to get rid of the current pinstripe ones. The retro jerseys from last year should be brought back full time. Could you start a campaign for change? (Matt from Greensburg, Ind.)
Answer: I wrote late last season that a decision already has been made to introduce new uniforms for the 2005-06 season. The players had some input on the design and I'm told the uniforms are somewhat retro in nature. Teams have to make these changes far ahead of implementing them for marketing purposes. The league doesn't want them suddenly bringing out a new design when it's still trying to sell the old uniforms.
I kinda miss the FloJo track jerseys. Maybe they can bring those back.
Looks like these are going away:
Ack NO! Figures that the Pacers would change their jerseys just after I finally got my own personalized #12 jersey for Christmas.
On the other hand, I guess 2005 is gonna be A Very Merry Pacer Christmas, Part II. Whoo-hoo!
I just hope the new uniforms don't suck. And so help me, they'd better leave the logo alone.

I can't find it on their website, but Hot Topic here in Green Bay had a couple of retro-looking screen printed Pacers T-shirts...the older logo with the hand.
Shall I pick one up for ya and mail it to your Hoosier ass? :-)
Star wipe, and...we're out. Thrillin' ain't easy.

I dunno...I just always liked the idea of him and Spike not liking each other in the Garden...a great underlying story...one of the few times I ever give a shit about the Knicks.
