August 10Aug 10 Can anyone name a football team with italicized numbers that look good in them? The Chargers and Steelers are the first two that come to mind.
August 10Aug 10 For your consideration and displeasure, here's a link to the worst jerseys NFL teams have ever worn.

August 11Aug 11 Those mid 90’s Cowboy unis suck. People like them because they bring back memories of the dominance.

A white bib (like a child?) and the addition of tan accents is an all-time uniform abomination (introduced in 1999 for a brief period):

August 11Aug 11 1 hour ago, CBHorn said: Why are they wearing bibs? No good reason. Rebranding gone bad. Actually, the NCAA disallowed them the following year because they were "confusing" other teams. Too much white on a dark uniform. The NCAA saved us from ourselves.

August 12Aug 12 On 8/8/2025 at 10:59 PM, PittsburghTiger said: Billy Fralic was also a friend of mine. Great guy with a wickedly dry sense of humor. The term “pancake block” originated with him. He played in a high school playoff game, while at Penn Hills H.S., also Aaron Donald’s school, and it was against Central Catholic. My cousin was the biggest kid on the Central line that game and he said that Fralic, then a sophomore, told the Central offensive line, “If you don’t try too hard I won’t have to hurt you”. Which is pretty damned funny. I loved our uniforms back then. I wish they would tone-down the colors a bit but, I’ll take what I can get after the shit they had in the 90s and onward. Billy died of cancer a couple years ago. Steve Pederson was one of the biggest jagoff assholes I have ever dealt with. Ralph Willard being another. Dan Devine, too. i love the mustard yellow from way back. It was very unique and would make their uniforms a definite 'A' grade. But you are correct, even with the bright yellow, their current uniforms are much better than the ones introduced in the 90s.

August 13Aug 13 Somehow, I forgot the fabulous Thunderbirds are also F-16s. These AFA uniforms from 2010 were a helluva lot better! Awesome helmets Edited August 13Aug 13 by DFW Horn

August 13Aug 13 F16 is my favorite fighter, and they absolutely should have gone Thunderbird, featuring F16, if that makes any sense. The helmets are ass.

I absolutely HATE the Steelers numbers/font as they are now. There was no sane reason to change the numbers. They were perfect. And I agree about the Raiders uniforms. Perfect. Although, I am not sure which I prefer more, the aways or homes. I think the away uniforms when they are a bit dirty are just awesome.

I mean, I get it- Adi is “having a moment” as we say in the industry. They’ve been on a roll for the last 20-24mo’s. Either one of Samba, Gazelle, Spezial and Campus are on damn near every white suburban Girl in America. And now if you walk through the Mall (yuck), you’ll see the SuperStar plastered all over FLocker/Champs, JD/Finish Line, Shoe Palace and Journeys’ windows. Hell, even at a few select Famous Footwear - Bjorn (Gulden, Global president) & John Miller (US Pres.) aren’t screwing around. They see an opportunity and are going for it- however, have no fear- Once the street- meaning the “real” Streets (NYC/Balt/DC/HTown, Chi-town/East StL, etc etc) all get tired of folk the Suburban Kids, they’ll break off again and jump back on the Swoosh. It’s the cycle. It’s been going this way for the last 50yrs.

It’s the cycle. It’s been going this way for the last 50yrs. I prefer Adidas over Nike -- Nike's shoe fits suck and I love their soccer gear, especially the team branded training pants. The article states that a big factor in the Vols choosing Adidas was the NIL component of the deal, which would be extra money over and above the $20.5 million revenue share cap. I don't know if our deal with Nike includes NIL money, I assume it doesn't. We need to renegotiate with Nike or, my preference, switch to Adidas to get some of that sweet NIL money.
