Really interesting take, Rob.  And one that makes sense to me. The Sox don't have their names on their home jersesy, which has always annoyed me for similar reasons.  Many a beer has been spilled when I saw a player on the field, asked "who the hell is that?" and had to go digging for my program to find out.  

Love the Butch Cassidy reference.  :-)
