I thought I was the only person who felt this way. Glad someone else feels the same.

Anyone wanna answer my question?

Is there anyway to view the desktop version of the forum from a mobile device?

*raises hand* Um, yeah, C-USA has guaranteed bowl tie-ins too. This argument makes no sense unless you meant both conferences are BCS AQ leagues. And if that's what you meant, there's no guarantee the new Big East (aka C-USA+) would retain it's AQ status. That's what I meant. Forgive me for not being more specific (I'm typing from my phone). As long as they have at least 8 schools, the Big East will be able to keep their AQ status.

As this board's resident Tulane fan, I'm excited about the rumors of Tulane being invited to the Big East or even the Big XII. Either conference is better than the irrelevant C-USA and IIRC, both potential conferences have guaranteed bowl berths. Hopefully this will help my Green Wave with recruiting and bring us back to prominence! On a somewhat unrelated note, hearing that Tulane was originally in the running for Tyrann Mathieu, ugh, shot to the gut.

I like the Saints black pants, especially with the gold helmet/white jersey combo. The gold helmet DOES help to separate them from the Ravens, Jaguars, Falcons and others, which makes the look even better.

I like white helmets with white facemasks. Think "The U", Texas, and VT.

So Gothamute and Mac, are you guys technically minority owners of the Green Bay Packers? One of my best friends is a Packers fan so all of this intrigues me.

How much does a share in the Packers franchise cost?

Joe Horn as an Atlanta Fslcon. Something that should have never been.

That's crap. Anyone can wear a jersey, just don't tuck it in. Absolutely agreed.

When was this?

? I hate gray facemasks ONLY when when it's not a part of a team's color scheme (Raiders, Cowboys, Giants are ok; Colts, Cardinals, Browns are stupid). ? I hate white socks with black shoes/cleats in EVERY sport (football like Penn State and Alabama, basketball like the Heat and the Cavs, and sanitary socks in baseball). ? I hate black shoes when it's not part of a team's color scheme because of the white socks. When I started following the NFL in 2003, most teams had white shoes. Now, most teams do not. This may be why I feel so strongly this. The color just doesn't flow to me. ? Despite tradition, I don't like stirrups and I'm glad they aren't standard in MLB anymore. ? I liked the Pirates red jersey vests ? I am disappointed in what the Colts have done with their unis in recent years; the blue facemasks and white cleats fit their color scheme as it should have. ? As mentioned by another poster, I also liked the Vikings' purple pants but only with the white jerseys. ? I think EVERY NFL team should have collar wordmarks. I like them for furthering a team's identity. ? I also like custom number fonts for the same reason I like collar wordmarks. ? I love teal. It's the color of my childhood. ? I wish Nike was the official outfitter of the NFL. While some of their ideas are questionable, some of their stuff is also really really cool. ? It bothers me when football teams don't have TV numbers, either on the sleeve or the shoulder, one of the cons of the Nike Pro Combat unis. ? Gradients are fun. ? The Arizona Cardinals new uniforms are the best uniforms they've ever had. The piping is not extraneous to me. However, the gray facemasks and black shoes prevent it from being the best uniform in the league.

+1.

A few in the NBA I like (BTW, somebody explain to me why the Thunder's unis get so much flack):

In fact, if you'll look down at the comments here, you see I was the first to comment that I LOVED THEM.

Too bad this didn't make it to the court; this was my favorite Milwaukee identity and this would've looked great. Consistent striping and a unique color scheme = a truly great uniform.

Is it me, or does Brett Favre's jersey actually have sleeves...in 2009?!?!?!
