Gold pants would instantly improve any matchup they wear burgundy jerseys

And arguably the white jersey. However, worn with the black jersey, they’d just be the Dollar Store Steelers.

With the reveal of the Giants throwback helmet, it begs the question-

Why couldn’t the Bengals have gone with a script throwback helmet instead of this poorly teased and absolutely horrendous white tiger helmet?

IIRC, Baltimore was poised to get the 2016 ASG until they got shafted in favor of San Diego.

Burns' nickname is Spider-Man, that's his celebration pose after a big game.

Interesting. I didn’t know that. Thank you for the clarification!

Why would anyone think to pose like this

Technically speaking, couldn’t Atlanta just wear the red helmet with current logo and gradient uniform? It sticks to the very loose rule of  “alternate uniform only”.

The problem now is that the stripes on the pants are all one color. They look more like Mississippi than an NFL team, at least on the road where the only blue is on the helmet. 

At least with this uniform you have both colors on all parts of the uniform and it just looks better overall with that color balance. 

Looking at the top photo, I don’t really hate it. I know I should, but I don’t.
 

Matching jersey and sleeve stripes complete with color coordinated socks

I’m calling the police

Put the Panthers Alt Helmet in the W category

Both the Browns and Ravens are the Browns, yet neither are the Browns

I think we might be entering the dark ages of at least NBA uniforms

Just do it in correspondence of the number franchise they are within the NFL

For instance, Arizona would be be 1 and Houston would be 32

The Oilers-Titans-Texans discourse around here never fails

• “tHe OiLeRs BeLoNg iN hOuStOn”

• ”iF oNLy tHe TiTaNs jUsT LeT tHe TeXaNs uSe ThE nAmE”

• “tHe LeGaL sTuFf dOeSn’t MaTtER wHeN it’S tHe OiLeRs”

The only way I can forgive the Bengals for this atrocity is if they do a promotional video shoot with Jason David Frank reprising his role as Tommy Oliver/White Power Ranger

I wish the Titans would quit being stubborn and let the Texans become the Oilers.  

Big 12 can retain its name if they add those six teams

All the teams would be present in 12 states

The Big 12 is reportedly considering adding up to six PAC 12 teams or even an all out merger. This includes at least Arizona, Arizona St, Colorado, Oregon, Utah, and Washington.

They could’ve at least tried to keep the sponsorship within the state of Pennsylvania and gotten something like “Hershey Field”

Heinz Field is not renewing its naming rights with the Steelers

New corporate sponsor will be announced later

What their BFBS alts could look like

 

Ah, simpler times of modest speculation

I know the team is leaning hard into the shape of the district angle, but I can’t help but think that’s a patch for a baseball team.

I'd love to bookmark this post for late August/early September. Not that there's anything wrong with it, but that you're getting all bat-poop crazy at this stage in the season over a perceived slight of your team. Then it's justified. now it's ... not.

That’s the thing. Being an Orioles fan, if you expect failure, you’ll never feel disappointment.

It’s not that I’m excited for the team, it’s how they’ve been treated as the scum of and bad for baseball by Buster Olney (and I’m sure other, less vocal, members of sports media). So anything good they accomplish should feel like a slap to the face to those who relegate them as trash.

What the Orioles (and Mariners) have accomplished in their past 10 games is better for baseball than anything the Yankees and Dodgers have done with their billion dollar rosters.

The Orioles, playing in arguably the toughest division in baseball, are two games below .500, currently sitting at a 7-game winning streak, and sit only 3 games behind the second wildcard spot.

I hope Buster Olney is somewhere eating his own :censored:.
