CaolinaJoe Posted January 13, 2005 Share Posted January 13, 2005 Personally I like those TB uni's. They were one of the reason's TB was one of my favorite teams when I was a kid, even when they lost 26 in a row. "It is the soldier, not the reporter, who has given us freedom of thepress. It is the soldier, not the poet, who has given us freedom ofspeech. It is the soldier, not the campus organizer, who has given usthe freedom to demonstrate. And it is the soldier who salutes theflag, serves beneath the flag, whose coffin is draped by the flag, andwho allows the protester to burn the flag."Marine Chaplain Dennis Edward O' Brien Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mac Posted January 13, 2005 Share Posted January 13, 2005 To me the Buccanneers uniforms didn't get bad until they added the orange pants, they looked like one of those fake made up teams that you see in movies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ltravisjr Posted January 13, 2005 Share Posted January 13, 2005 If I am permitted to suggest fictional teams (and show my age while doing it), does anyone remember the old movie "North Dallas Forty"? I was pretty young when I saw it but the only reason I remember it is that I seem to recall one of the Dallas opponents wearing some really odd color combination such as red jerseys over brown pants. It was so ugly it was almost cool. Almost. Does anyone else remember or have pictures (I can't find any).LT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gothamite Posted January 13, 2005 Share Posted January 13, 2005 Is it true that the Broncos got the socks from some circus or circus supply store? It's been a quite a few years since I read the story. Here's the best site I know of for information on those socks. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog.

machpost Posted January 13, 2005 Share Posted January 13, 2005 The Redskins uniforms have always been pretty ugly, in my opinion.

PackerBadger Posted January 13, 2005 Share Posted January 13, 2005 In the one year Sam Wyche coached the Indiana Hoosiers, 1983, he (or someone) decided to take Indiana's colors of crimson and cream literally. Well, not really -- the crimson wasn't as dark as crimson should be (i.e. their current uniforms), but instead of white trim, the second color was indeed cream -- cream-colored jerseys, cream-colored pants, and cream-colored facemasks. I saw an Indiana-Kentucky game on TV and thought there was something wrong with my TV set. Then I saw the uniforms in person at an Indiana-Wisconsin game. It appeared as though someone had left a brand new yellow shirt in when the whites were washed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Discrim Posted January 13, 2005 Share Posted January 13, 2005 the crap heap...NFL: Buccos til 97, mainly cus of Brucelate 60s/early 70s Oilers...illegal use of silverArena: Zubas. enough saidPortland Forest Dragons...god those were crap.CFL: Rough Riders' attempt at making red their main color. College: Tennessee 2002 uniformBrown late 90s...again, illegal use of silverNorth Texas current...i root for em when they on TV, but i have no problem saying the uniform is ugly.Minnesota mid 90s...mmm, M_MI actually wouldn't mind if Indiana took the cream part of their colors literally, and i'd like to see a pic of those 83 roads.MLS: current Columbus Crew (the past two were a helluva lot better than the currents, I can tell you.)late 90s KC Wizards...Flush the Wiz. and the wavy rainbow. every SJ Clash uniform until they thankfully became the Earthquakes...well, they accomplished a clash. that thing was the definition of ugly1996 Nike MLS template...see ClashNigeria soccer: i loved neon green on the Orlando Thunder. I hated it on Nigeria. moving on.Germany road jersey: i know, black's in their flag and green's not. I guess I'm just sore cus they pulled off the green/German flag color combo so well.NBA: Rockets til last year: the logo was fine. the wordmark was good. the numbering was cool. how they were used wasn't.Magic current: it's not that they're real ugly, I just hate these things.Warriors current: see Magic, except they ARE uglyWizards: see Magic againSonics current home & away: see WarriorsHornets alt: whatchagonnado, though?NCAA: can't really think of...oh, wait. St. Peter's a couple years ago (I think). ugliest shorts I've ever seen.Georgetown current: ugly colors ruin a perfectly good design.Florida alternate: just cus it's black. and makes no sense.MLB: original D-Rays. enough said.Astros rainbowscurrent Astros, come to think of itWhite Sox short shorts. nuf sed.Giants blacks, mainly cus they had black lettering which equated to being illegibleNHL: Canucks red/gold/black gradient altIslanders current altFlyers current altMooterusDucks current altCoyotesabout Wildwing...yeah, it was sorta ugly. the blame for that can be laid squarely upon the lettering-I could read the back of one of those black Giants jerseys before I could make out "KARIYA 9" on the back of those. if they'd gone with a legible font, it wouldn't have been so bad.
