Here's something that mystifies me- why does a rapper where a specific Jersey/Retro outfit/baseball hat? Are they fans of the teams? Do certain teams have more street-cred than others? Or do they just like the look?

Like I'm watching a 50 Cent video and at one point and he and his homies rock a retro Orange and Orange Tampa Bay Bucs, a 70's style SF Giants Jersey, and a Cincinnatti Bengals jersey. Now that's a fairly motley group of jersey's if every there was- one of the worst uniforms ever, one of the worst franchises ever, and a non-descript mediocre baseball team.

Then I think a bit about it and realize that I guess 50 Cent is just a big fan of orange- all three jersey's have orange in it. But then, why would he also be wearing a yellow Yankee's hat at the same time? Besides the fact the Yankee's don't wear yellow (hullo?), yellow orange and black don't quite mesh. Not to mention the fact that, and this is a huge pet peeve of mine, he's wearing stuff from two separate teams at once. I mean, make up your mind, here. Are you a Bengals fan or a Yankee's fan?

But while I figured that one out, why was Snoop Dog wearing a black Pittsburg Steelers hat? Is he a big fan of the Steelers or is it just that the black and yellow on the hat matched 50 Cent's orange, black and yellow ensemble. And if so, does that mean rappers call each other before video shoots and coordinate their gear?

Can someone please look into this?
