Is it a nice day? Nah, it's a bit grey.
Grey is not good, it's the colour of rain,
the Clampdown and
embarrassing defeats at Southampton.
So why add it to one of the classiest jerseys in the GAA?
Kit manufacturers Azzurri have released the new Waterford jersey, which features a new and unnecessary splash of grey around the crest.
Why?
White is the colour of purity, the colour of hope. Derek McGrath's young team brought hope to Deise hurling fans last season and, now, a year older and more experienced, they will trot out for their opening Munster Senior Hurling League (rest in peace Waterford Crystal Cup) game with a stamp of boredom above their heart.
Remember when Tony Browne, Dan Shanahan and Paul Flynn used to hurtle around, helmetless, sponsored by Yops, with all the colours of the rainbow splashed on their sleeves?
No more, now grey is the colour accompanying the iconic blue and white.
Or maybe they've adopted the rubber studs that they put on rugby jersey to help players hold on to that slippery egg - not such a big problem with a sliotar.

Some have had the same thoughts as myself...

But the majority are backing grey...
