I'm sick of pundits and writers bitching out the Philly commemorative uniforms. I wouldn't be saying anything about other people's outfits if i dressed like those dudes. If there was a musical about football, this is what they'd be wearing on stage. Clearly awesome, with the added bonus that your team HAS to win if it goes out onto the field like that.

― Roberto Spiralli, Monday, 24 September 2007 17:31 (nineteen years ago)

They're completely hideous, but I love hideous uniforms so I say fawesome.

― polyphonic, Monday, 24 September 2007 17:33 (nineteen years ago)

Roberto, you are still my enemy, but less mortally so. fawesome.

― Leee, Monday, 24 September 2007 17:40 (nineteen years ago)

yeah roberto 8080 abt gross clueless football dudes making sartorial judgments - also those unis are clearly amazing

― jhøshea, Monday, 24 September 2007 17:45 (nineteen years ago)

best

― jhøshea, Monday, 24 September 2007 17:52 (nineteen years ago)

380 yards passing with a Nerf football. quite a feat.

― Roberto Spiralli, Monday, 24 September 2007 17:58 (nineteen years ago)

don't like the unis overall, but i dig the socks.

I need a "cute, not good for foo-ball" option. Tho i kinda liked the skin helmets yesterday.

― bnw, Monday, 24 September 2007 19:31 (nineteen years ago)

would've gone with yellow pants and the jerseys are too shiny but that uniform was great

― brownie, Monday, 24 September 2007 19:43 (nineteen years ago)

take those back to the ncaa football 05 create-your-own-school settings menu plz.

― Jordan Sargent, Monday, 24 September 2007 20:12 (nineteen years ago)

lucky unis

― hstencil, Monday, 24 September 2007 20:19 (nineteen years ago)

Not Buffalo-throwback awesome, but nearly so. They need to keep wearing these until they lose in them.

i'm less impressed with the Redskins' flourescent yellow pants. i always thought that dark red-gold combo was a classy look, but now they've just fucked it up.

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

nope 'skins looked good

― brownie, Monday, 24 September 2007 23:38 (nineteen years ago)

THE SKINS CLASSICS ARE AWESOME, THE EAGLES CLASSICS ARE AWESOME, THEY ARE ALL AWESOME AND FUK ANYONE WHO DISAGREES

― cankles, Tuesday, 25 September 2007 04:10 (nineteen years ago)

were the 'skins owned by french's mustard in the early '70s by any chance?

― chicago kevin, Tuesday, 25 September 2007 04:23 (nineteen years ago)

skins should remodel their new jerseys to look like those, a la the chargers. those eagles unis may be the worst in the history of sports.

― Jordan Sargent, Tuesday, 25 September 2007 05:02 (nineteen years ago)

as the commentators explained, those skins unis were designed by vince lombardi and were based on the packers unis. they were designed during the season he coached the skins and he died in the following offseason. they only kept those unis a couple seasons. i believe the next re-design more heavily employed the burgundy.

― j.q higgins, Tuesday, 25 September 2007 13:01 (nineteen years ago)

Me and America vastly prefer the simple logos and vivid colors of the 60's and 70's rather than the shit that followed

Ravens- purple black or whatever. terrible
Panthers- teal? some dude made a sticker on his PC and stuck it to the side of a helmet
Jags- same dude
Bills/Spidermen
Broncos corporate swoosh logo + reflective highway worker orange. the previous ones weren't that good either so maybe a tie.
Patriots corporate swoosh logo, good if you're delivering packages

― brownie, Tuesday, 25 September 2007 13:43 (nineteen years ago)

agreed nothing is worse than the current corporate focus group designed unis.

― jhøshea, Tuesday, 25 September 2007 13:50 (nineteen years ago)

ha im a fan of imaginary thowback gear

it's time to get Pat Patriot out of the bath house and back on a helmet where he belongs

― brownie, Tuesday, 25 September 2007 13:52 (nineteen years ago)

f'n srsly those blood red jerseys were tiiight

― jhøshea, Tuesday, 25 September 2007 13:55 (nineteen years ago)

i think congress actually passed a law back in the 90s that said expansion teams were required to employ at least one blueish-green color into their color scheme. how the maryland delegation craftily evaded this, i know not.

― j.q higgins, Tuesday, 25 September 2007 13:57 (nineteen years ago)

yah teal/aqua was hot then. confession: i kinda love the panthers noise-unis :/

― jhøshea, Tuesday, 25 September 2007 13:59 (nineteen years ago)

i dunno the trend was to go darker and darker with colors in an effort to appear badass or whatever. even the panthers but black into their unis.

― brownie, Tuesday, 25 September 2007 14:14 (nineteen years ago)

put black

― brownie, Tuesday, 25 September 2007 14:16 (nineteen years ago)

yeah, that teal/aqua phenom was weird. it was everywhere in the 90's.

― brownie, Tuesday, 25 September 2007 14:17 (nineteen years ago)

that particular shade of blue is so offensive.

― sunny successor, Tuesday, 25 September 2007 16:09 (nineteen years ago)

i loved the pat patriot logo, to the point where last year i emailed my dad to see if he still had a patriots winter hat from the '70s that is probably the one thing i remember most from my youth, but the flyin' elvis logo isn't bad. it evokes the old man of the mountain (who no longer exists).

― chicago kevin, Tuesday, 25 September 2007 20:35 (nineteen years ago)

maybe the pats should go back to the 1960 uni, pat patriot didn't come along until '61.
