The 2006 BC Lions Grey Cup championship team had a hot mess for their look.

I was at that game, It was an eye sore to watch.

Every uniform should be assessed in its context. The 1950s uniforms were fine-looking uniforms in an era where every uniform was relatively minimalist and had long sleeves. The Millen-era uniforms looked like somebody slapped random black trim onto the 1990s Lions uniform, which is exactly what happened. No, the 1950s uniforms shouldn't be brought back as a full-time uniform today (although they're great at Thanksgiving, as a reminder of the dominant Lions teams of the 50s), but the Millen-era uniforms were a joke design-wise.

I couldn't of said that any better myself.

I love the lions 50s look. I love the way they look as throwbacks now.

That is not the Lions worst set though, this was by far.

 

I like these better than the 09 set. I just hate the 09 font.

I know that this is just their alternate, but for winning their first championship in 108 years... 

 

As a lifelong Cardinals fan, anything the Cubs wear is hideous?

Agree that the Cavs black sleeved uniforms are terrible but they have had some BAD uniforms in their history.  I'm not sure the 2016 alternates are their worst

Uhhhhh, in the context of this post, they are. No NBA team should ever wear sleeved jerseys. I expect this from Women's NCAA basketball, but from the NBA........?

This is where the thread should start and end.

 

I hated those uniforms until game 5 and game 7 of the 2016 NBA Finals. When you win and end a 52 year drought I don't care what you wear.

Considering how long it took them to win a title, maybe they should have worn alts a long time ago.

Had the Caps upset Detroit in '98, then yes. Not because of the swooping eagle but because of the colours.

I can't believe that was a primary for the longest time.

This was the worst but I don't think the current look is too far ahead.

I won’t have you impugn the one unqiue color scheme the Caps had in their history. That blue uniform from the 90’s is still my favorite Caps uniform of all time. 

 

Although TBH, if any team in pro sports should have a RWB color scheme, it’s probably the Caps. But I’m a big fan of the blue/bronze/black look. At least at first. That black primary was ugly.

Disagree.  I much preferred those to the Reebok piping disaster that is their current set.

I feel like this thread is gonna get updated after every championship even though the vast majority of teams aren't currently in their worst ever looks.

Let's be real here. The Capitals have never had a good uniform.
