Movie/TV Unis


BJ Sands

Recommended Posts

I watch a lot of sports movies, and I've been compiling a list in my head of the best uniforms I've seen on screen. Enjoy, or not.

Hockey: District 5 Mighty Ducks (The original green one)

Baseball: New York Knights (Duh)

Football: North Dallas Bulls (Just like the 'Boys from the 70's)

Basketball: Western Dolphins (Like UCLA)

Football- MEAN MACHINE (longest yard)

Which version? I hope you mean the original.

This is a great topic. I'm going to have to think about it for a while. Presumably you mean fictional teams, so we can't include "Bull Durham", "Brian's Song", "Pride of the Yankees", etc.

Yes, fictional teams only. And thanks for the love.

My two nominees for best uniform:

Bad News Bears

New York Knights

Actually, Javier Pulido drew a cool fictional team uniform in the Vertigo comic series The Human Target, issues 4 and 5, but I can't remember the name of the team. It was the New York somethings, with a sleek green and black scheme. Kind of a Wall Street look for a New York team.

The original Mighty Ducks logo on their jerseys looks like something of a premonition of their :cursing: alternates.

I liked the unis of the team that played Permian in the state title game in Friday Night Lights. Although if the unis used by the opponents in the movie were the same in 1988 in real life then this wouldn't work for this topic.

All the teams from The Replacements look like they could be right out of the NFL. Funny thing - the NFL didn't seem to mind the association - even though it was a clearly fictional league, and the logo they wore on the jersey wasn't the NFL shield, they mention being "an All-Pro Quarterback" and "Super Bowl rings."

Best: The Replacements Washington Sentinals

Worst: What was the team the Sharks played in "Any Given Sunday" with those gold jerseys? Those were awful.

I think that team was the Dallas Knights - something like that. Texas Stadium looked pretty cool in that film though.

Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half.
