That's still fine. It keeps all the crappy looks to one set.

That's an improvement, but I still think it looks dumb to have a truncated stripe that only spans the top of the shoulder. The 60s version had synergy with the different circular shapes; this just looks like someone accidentally started adding another stripe and stopped halfway through. If they bring a set like this back, they should modernize it to simply have the white sleeve caps but no additional stripe. There just isn't room on modern jersey cuts for multiple shoulder stripes/panels.

The Lions' current uniform is far from perfect, but getting rid of black was the best thing they did. Never forget that Matt Millen added black to the uniforms because he wanted the team to look more like the Raiders. The Lions should never do anything to bring back the memory of Matt Millen.

These uniforms never looked right on a modern template, and jersey sleeves have gotten even smaller since the Pennington years. In the original 60s jersey, the "inner" stripe was a true hoop that went all the way around the arm, and the white sleeves were actually sleeves rather than shoulder caps. With tiny modern sleeves, the white had to be moved up further onto the shoulder, leading to the truncated inner stripe and even a little cutout from the white shoulder cap. It This just looks bizarre and wrong. If they bring this back, they should modernize it to fit modern templates instead of trying to just paste a look that was designed for full sleeves onto a jersey with essentially no sleeves.

Would much improve the look, too. The all-navy looks boring.

This is essentially my problem. They're completely generic uniforms that don't reflect the excitement of the city. In addition, both the white uniform and the red uniform have yellow bordering white in a number of spots, which makes me feel like I'm watching that ghosting effect that old CRT TVs used to have if not tuned properly.

If you're limiting this to AFC and NFC (not pre-merger NFL), I think they're the only team to play in both conferences for more than a year (the Bucs were in the AFC for their inaugural season, and the Seahawks were in the NFC, before switching for their second seasons).

The early-2010s Adidas uniforms inevitably look like crap due to the super-stretchy material they used. It looks like this player has saggy breasts and a backpack. It's tough to focus on the design elements of the jersey when the player silhouette is this bad.

I think it's a reference to the first verse of "Mary Jane's Last Dance," by Tom Petty. https://www.azlyrics.com/lyrics/tompettyandtheheartbreakers/maryjaneslastdance.html

The Hawks will also change in a year or two. Partly because their current set is ugly, and partly because that's just what the Hawks do.

To be pedantic, the Tennessee Oilers never wore THAT jersey while playing IN the state of Tennessee. The two years they were the Tennessee Oilers, they only wore white at home. They wore the blue jerseys once during the 1997 preseason at Dallas, twice during the 1997 regular season at Miami and at Dallas, and didn't wear them at all in 1998. https://www.gridiron-uniforms.com/GUD/controller/controller.php?action=teams-season&team_id=TNO&year=1997 https://www.gridiron-uniforms.com/GUD/controller/controller.php?action=teams-season&team_id=TNO&year=1998

Here's McDonald as a Ram and a Falcon- note his trademark lack of a facemask, even in the late 60s:

The black stripes and facemask are gross. That said, I do like red pants for Wisconsin - it just looks much better if they're all red-and-white:

Y.A. Tittle was 37 years old in this famous photo: I used to think that was so old. Now I'm six months away from that.

I think the Packers jerseys are much better now than in the early 90s. Back in the early 90s, they had a more drab green and a lighter but more mustardy yellow, and it looked dingy. The current forest green and brighter yellow look much better, in my opinion.

It's tough to imagine this guy being worth two first-round picks, two second-round picks, and a third-round pick.

I think the exact opposite - I love the design, but think it would have been stronger with just one shade of orange instead of two.

LSU does this too, but they're the only FBS team that I know of that does this.

This is doubly "wrong" because for most of Allen's two years with the 49ers, they wore their 1998-2008 set with the drop shadow numbers. They only wore the uniform Allen is wearing for two games - 2007 vs. Arizona and 2007 vs. St. Louis (the game this picture is from - you can see the shoulder of a Rams player). Here's Allen in his more standard 49ers uniform:

That's certainly a perfect post for this thread, because holy smokes are those things fugly. The color balance is fine, but the design is awful.

I don't mind the design, but I think it would be better if some of the light blue and yellow highlights were switched. The yellow is easily the most striking part of the design, but it seems to highlight what should be the least important lines - the neck and the front of the thigh.

Jacksonville used to have some excellent basketball uniforms:

The conference now includes Nebraska Wesleyan. The shape of Iowa is defined by the Mississippi River to the east and the Missouri River to the west, and Nebraska Wesleyan is just across the Missouri River from Iowa, so the name makes sense.

I know the "sad husky" is an old UConn logo. I was saying that the melting husky that Northeastern used to use is the second-worst husky logo of all time for any team.

That old husky head looks like the husky is melting. It's the second-worst husky logo of all time.
