What is your favorite alternate jersey, and your most hated alternate jersey?

[dfirest1]

At work, a coworker and I began discussing alternate jerseys, and our favorites, and our least favorites. We had a lengthy discussion, and I felt that you all should chime in on this too. It can be a current jersey, a throwback or one that is not worn anymore.

Favorite: Phoenix Coyotes Alternates (old and new)

Least Favorite:1979 Philadelphia Phillies brown jersey.

All I can think of for now!!!

For the record... from earlier posts in this thread...
- The 1979 Phillies alternate was burgundy, not brown
- The Mets pinstripe jersey is not an alternate; it is the main home jersey. The alternates are the solid white and black.

Didn't the Mets switch the pinstripes to their alternate for the 2010 season? Plus the Mets, in recent years, primarily wear the solid whites at home, and I just get used to calling those their home jerseys.
