Creamsicle Nostalgia

(LENNY, a player on his way out of the dressing room to a workout, sees one of the new home jerseys. He picks it up, unfolds it to look at it, folds it back up, puts it back on the table as teammate CARL walks past with a water bottle.)

LENNY
Is this what we’re wearing?

CARL
Yeah.

LENNY
Orange?

CARL
Mmm-hmm.

LENNY
What happened to classic white?

CARL
We’re wearing white socks.

LENNY
White socks? White helmet?

CARL
Yes, white helmet.

LENNY
White socks, white helmet, blue pants — and orange. We’re gonna look like a rainbow.

This overheard conversation might not be word-for-word correct, but it’s accurate in content and context. The names have been changed to protect the innocent.
