WHY??

WHY do football teams EVER have white pants????????

Spent an hour this morning scrubbing and then finally bleaching those things. Of course it would help if he brought them home more than once a week...lol They look nice now though Every momma wants her kid to look clean when he runs out on that field....lol

Exciting year....my son is QB. (scares the shitky out of me in more ways than one) After all those years on Pop Warner, where the coaches kid is always the QB, in Jr. High he's finally getting his shot at it.

Go Baby Go!!

May your son's fate not mirror Joey Sunshine's.

Forget the scrubbing, go straight for the bleach. I'm sure he'll do great.

My oldest daughter was a gutsy sweeper in soccer and the best base-stealer on her softball team. She frequently had grass/dirt/blood stains on her uniforms.

As the "Laundry Guy" in my household I found that Oxyclean was the best detergent for getting rid of uniform stains. Here is the formula I used:

1. wet the stained area with a water spray bottle.

2. mix in some of the powder form of Oxyclean.

3. Spray the powder until you get a paste.

4. With your fingers, mix in the wet Oxyclean paste into the stain.

5. let it sit for at least half in hour.

6. Then wash it on a regular cycle.

About 90% of the time the stain will come out with the first washing. If the stain is still there repeat steps 1-6. I never had to wash a stained uniform twice in a row.

Thanks OPF. I'll try that. I heard another remedy also but takes more time. Someone at work told me to soak the clothes in water with cascade dishwashing detergent. Only thing is, that has to sit awhile.

Sure I whine, but I'd have it no other way. Having kids playing sports is an awesome experience for a parent and great for the kids.

First game tonight....0-1 but such an exciting game. Who cares if you work a full day, leave at 3 and don't get home till 8 at night.......Dang, it's fun watching your kids play sports!!! As luck would have it they both have games on the same night during most of the fall season.

You sound like my mom....she scrubbed the piss out of my practice uni....I had the only white one on the field. Most parents wash them...minimal scrubbing and send junior back to the field. Your putting too much effort into it for nothing. Little 007 will be just fine with a hygenic stained uniform.

Maybe I should stop. Were you embarrassed having really white football pants? lol
