    Ask the MB: San Diego Padres Uniforms

    Q: Can the "not soon to be in first place" Padres 10-game losing streak be explained by their ridiculous jerseys this past Sunday?
    --Richard

    A: In a badly misguided effort to honor the military, the Padres have worn camo jerseys on Sunday home games since 2008, a full two years after camo became post-peak.

    Ask the MB: Camo Pants and Shorts

    Q: I am overweight and poor, and as a result I have a wardrobe that is five years old. I'm trying to make the best of it so I come to you with a question: When are camouflage pants/shorts acceptable?
    --Ben

    A: Two situations, Ben: 1. Protecting America's freedom, and 2. Halloween costume.

    Fast for a day, take the money you would have spent on food and head to the clearance rack at Target, where you will always find multiple pairs of XXL Converse One-Star pants marked down to $10 or less.

    Favre in Need of True Diva Styling

    Ultra-casual Brett Favre looked surprisingly natural in a suit at last month's ESPY Awards, but he clearly missed the MB memos on camo and graphic tees as he left Green Bay yesterday. Also, those sunglasses veer dangerously close to reflector blades. A true diva needs true diva shades. Like Madonna in Versace.

    First the Wrangler Endorsement, and Now This

    During yesterday's post-game interview, Brett Favre demonstrated the pitfalls of a 38 year-old wearing age-inapproriate clothing. Camo skull cap and printed tee. Yeesh.

    Juicy Couture Cargo Short

    via Bloomingdale's. $117.00.

    Juicy Triple Play

    Juicy Couture's slide toward brand oblivion isn't helped by this disastrous camo short triple play:

    1. Linen. It sucks.
    2. Long. 24" inseam a bit much, closer to slacks.
    3. Camo. So 2006.

    Even though they're on sale (surprise!), avoid.
