08:13 AM ET 08.10 | From far and wide, the Blue Jays are setting their sights on appealing to the glowing hearts of Canadians. It's expected the Blue Jays uniforms will have a new look for the 2012 season, one that will reflect a Canadian theme more than ever. The team is playing coy as even a mention of a uniform change is hush-hush within the organization. But the change has been in the design phase for months and should be ready for unveiling by the beginning of next season. Jays players, who wore red caps during the Canada Day weekend series in Toronto, could have a more pronounced maple leaf and red and white colours on the uniform to capture characteristics of the Canadian flag.

Was thinking the same thing. Guess the Blue Jays will only use blue as the accent color. Where is the **** eye for the straight guy entourage?

Come on, you can't complain about a non-story like this: at least it's not recycled! But as a Jays fan, this makes me yawn.

Not a Truth, not a rumor. Just a snippet from what was probably a fine story meant for Blue Jay fans. Slow news day. Altho a red uniform based around the maple leaf is probably more effective than their bland current uniform. And what's a Blue Jay got to do with anything?

Exactly how long should it take to design a uniform? This isn't exactly rocket science.

Most people at the games are wearing the retro-hat anyway

Rogers, the Canadian telecom glutton that bought the jays a few years ago, has a red brand and corporate colour. Their main competition is Bell Canada, whose corporate colours are blue. This is what it is about. Rogers, changed the name from 'skydome', and wanted to make all the seats red in the dome from blue. They're caps used to say "blue jays", now they just "jays". Rogers would change their name to the "Red Jays" if they could.

What's next? The St. Louis Cardinals wearing blue? That would make about as much sense.
