Argentina is the designated home team, so they had first choice as to what they wanted to wear. When they chose white shorts, it essentially forced France into the navy shorts. Now I suppose the sock choice could be superstitious for France, as they easily could’ve worn red socks instead of navy (navy/navy/red was actually the combo shown in Nike’s initial release of the kit). 

Yes. Exactly.

Which is why I said part.

Well, this is disappointing. The final will be stripes/white/white vs. mono-navy:

 

I wonder if this is a superstitious move by Argentina; they’ve won the last two games in this look and also won last summer’s Copa America final in this look. In any case, it’ll be a disappointing end to what has generally been a pretty good World Cup in terms of kit matchups.

 

Croatia/Morocco will be the same matchup as their group stage meeting, as expected.

It also might be part superstitious by france, as they worn the all navy when they won in 2018.

Bills need to wear their proper blue, striped socks.

On the road, White over white over blue striped socks worn correctly is their best look.

And yet, they refuse.

I don't want to say it ruins it, but NYGDAL would look so much better with the giants in grey pants.

Black is a part of the Vikings color scheme because the facemask just ***HAD*** to be BFBS for no reason whatsoever.

But, just like Ramsey wearing yellow socks, does not excuse a player not conforming to the rest of the team

I am SHOCKED bengals steelers didnt make the worst list.

Was messenging @Jer15 during the game and thought it was a shoein.

I like the black socks, because the alternative seems to be all white tights and not a fan. but yet, fully see your point.

Oh ok.
Why did Rugby Union call itself League then?

 

I wondered where the Wolfpack went, there was talk of an Ottawa side in ESL also.
It's been good to see the French teams do ok, well until Toulouse went down.

honestly? I think it's because english speaking north america is used to having the word league in their competitions.

National Hockey League, National Football League, Major League Baseball, Major Least soccer etc. 

Chose to align with NA conventions rather than be accurate to the sport with Major League Rugby.

Hopefully they realize their mistake and use the TC hat with the roads. But, that's easily fixable without even triggering a change.

Not a bad look overall.

So would I if the Colts hadn't gone with the long johns look.

Sorry, should have specificed the worst list. That's on me.

So, I love the big picture look of Tenn. Wonderful blocking of double blue, and i think navy sky blue and navy look really nice.

BUT

A uniform is way more than just the colours, and on that I can fully agree. Though, if this were my list, i'd swap 1 and 2.

Perhaps it's the back to back SUCK that colours my judgement

Honestly, I don't like the 3D printed logos on batting helmets so they can stay far, far away from the NFL.

Any new jets need to keep the current green. It's just so beautiful that, flaws included, it's the best they looked JUST because of the colour.

Though, take this green and put it on older jerseys? even better.

My general rule of thumb is that baseball pants should be a colour that functions as white or grey. The sand functions as grey in my eyes, even though it isnt.

I also like the NPB practice of white pants and a dark top on the road, even if i wouldnt like to see it in MLB.

this would have been fun to bring back the "Close, but no..." list you had a bit back. 

If it existed, Bills packers should be top of that list.

Put the bills in white pants, and this is the top of my list. Yes, over steelers eagles.

EDIT: Just found out that the boards support alt text.  Amazing job with accessibility here.

Canada needs a top tier professional league. Not a glorified youth league(like U-23) TBH, it's cut and dry.

It's like the Welsh situation imo. Wales has their own leagues and pyramid, even if some of the leagues compete in the FA Leagues. In this case, some Canadian teams compete under the US banner and in MLS like Welsh teams and England.

Doesnt devalue to Welsh system or underscore the need to have their own, which they do and Canada does and need to as well.

Was honestly wondering if the Commanders v Packers was going to make it.

Might have been their one week to make it, with a really good looking packers against Washington in their best set. And yet?

Zero disagreements with your list.

NFL rules used to be that alternates had to either be a throwback or a colour swap of a primary. I'm sure they've been relaxed, but that's why we see so many throwbacks in the NFL.

I mean, he’s not entirely wrong. What happened to Tua should be the center of a very long discussion. A discussion that should’ve already happened well before Thursday night.

 

As far as the uniform violations, there’s a reason for rules set in place regarding uniformity among players. Ramsey just decided to be “that guy” and is paying for it. Literally.

thought i did add my other comments here, but ooops i didnt.

Yes, safety NEEDS to be 100% the first issue. But, you're also part of a TEAM and need to dress as a TEAM. you have a uniform, wear it correctly. They should stop fining them and not let them play unless they're dressed properly.

What a selfish prick jagoff

I know people have this weird thing agains “monochrome”, but the Bengals in black jerseys and pants with the striped helmets and orange socks is one of the best looking football uniforms I’ve ever seen. That has to be included because it

looks fantastic. 
 

 

My GOODNESS does that look good. 

And things like this are why i personally take socks into consideration for monochrome.

This looks good, and the orange breaks up the "mono". But all black? no thank you.

I honestly expected Rams Arizona to get the top spot. Watching it, it seemed like a lock.

And yet?

I cant disagree with your worst list and SOMEHOW it deserves second. Which makes seattle atlanta that much worse.

 Cincinnati

Minnesota

Seattle

NY Jets

NY Giants

Tennessee

LA Chargers

Cleveland

Dallas

Jacksonville

Buffalo

Carolina

Denver

Green Bay

Kansas City

LA Rams

Yes, but you did see the ad, right? Plus, those contingency sponsors, as they're called, went on every single car. So you didn't just see it on a closeup of the Home Depot 20, but also the DuPont 24, M&M's 18, and so on. NASCAR doesn't have those anymore (no more sponsors willing to dole out that kind of cash) so nowadays some teams have their own contingency sponsors - logos that show up on every car but may not be a primary sponsor. I actually hadn't considered this before but I wouldn't be surprised to see leagues reserve spaces for league-wide deals, like NASCAR's old contingency sponsors.

My memory says that MLB batting helmets are league wide ads.

Bills back in white pants

i absolutely hate it. I haven’t had any issues with the quality, but if I want to flip to the baseball game then flip back, it’s a click to bring up the app  menu, a click to choose Prime, a wait for it to load, a click to choose the game, another click to “play live” vs “resume”, then another wait for the game to load. 
 

I said F it and am just watching baseball.   Streaming isn’t sophisticated enough to support live sports viewing yet. Until I can have the stream on standby while I click through other things, I want no part of it. And I assume syncing to radio is nearly impossible, but fortunately local games will (I think) be simulcast on real tv. 

They will be, I'm watching this Steelers Browns game in WPXI(Local pittsburgh NBC affiliate)
