BigRed618 836 Posted January 17 I mean, what’s there to complain about? These jerseys look exactly like you would expect from something chosen by the masses, many of whom may not have a trained eye for what a good uniform is supposed to look like 5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Normally the helmets are revealed at the same time as jerseys. Whenever there's a uniform change, the NFL, CFL and College Football would usually show both jerseys and helmets. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Probably becasue they are going to go with a radical new helmet design, specifically created for this league. 6 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Because alternative American Football leagues are almost always an investment grift doomed to fail miserably in under a year, so why even bother taking up front page space on the forums while actual things of note get pushed down? 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GDAWG 1,832 Posted January 22 There's only one non-NFL Pro Football League that many of us take seriously around here and they play in Canada. Well, at least we hope they play this year. If they don't, it's not going to be good for them. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd say this one is criticized more because they are letting everyone have a say in how everything in the league runs, rather than just saying people can vote for a play before every down.

If they are going full pads I'd have expected the whole uniform to be voted on instead of a jersey. These are what the high school 7v7 teams dress up in: 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The team went 5-11. https://www.gq.com/story/fan-run-football-experiment 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
