You don't know how national teams work, do you? Their jerseys change all the time.

They casually and routinely change their team's official trademarked colors while engaging in competition with other teams, do they?

You can be a gay apologist all you want, but I will underscore for readers that you yourself just referred to the Black and Gold colors that are commonly identified with the Penguin's jerseys, and implied that it would be unseemly to have colors other than these to represent them (never mind how such a thing impacts licensing and trademark issues -- unless you somehow reserved and registered the colors of the Homo-Penguin jersey for use on designated occasions).

Put up or shut up time: can you name a team of national prominence other than this sad example where it was decided to do away with the team's official colors and change the color of the team's official playing jerseys to rainbow colors for the expressed purpose of supporting and showing solidarity with with faggots?

FReegards!

This isn't a team of national prominence. It doesn't even play a SPORT of national prominence.

Yes.

Let's take a quick look at Team Canada, for example -- one of the finest and most successful amateur hockey programs in history. The images I've posted below are just from the last 15 years -- and they only include cases where the national teams were playing in prominent international tournaments, not meaningless exhibition games.

We have the national team from the 2014 Winter Olympics -- with home/away colors plus a "third jersey" that these teams began using for historical commemoration or simply to enhance merchandise sales:

How about the World Junior Championships in 2012?

Here is the women's team from the 2010 Winter Olympics:

Here's my favorite version of Team Canada's jersey in recent decades, from the 2009 World Junior Championships:

Oh, looky here ... a dark green version from the 2009 World Juniors:

A different look from the 2008 World Junior Championships:

The color scheme was different for the 2007 Women's World Championships. It may not be easy to see this, but in addition to the blue trim the red has been replaced by pink in this version:

Red maple leaf on black and gold for the 2004 World Cup of Hockey:
