Unpopular Opinions


Recommended Posts

Maybe I have an unpopular opinion because a bunch of people seem to love the Redskins' yellow pants. I have grown really tired of them.They look stale and just completely symbolic of a failed era in Washington. I particularly dislike the home jerseys with them. And it's not just the pants, it's the socks that match nothing, the shrunken sleeve stripes and the toothpick sleeve numbers Nike reduced them to. The whole Redskins uniform just looks awful and cheap now, at least to me.

So much better than:

(and I realize they dropped the toilet collars on the roads. I couldn't find a better picture).

This one strikes me. I love the yellow pants, but the burgandy ones look way too good with that white jersey.

I don't know how unpopular this is, but there are a number of CFL identities that I really like.

You don't know how unpopular this is? Seriously?

Seriously.
I only agree with you on Edmonton's current identify. Anything else...wow

Aside from MLS first couple seasons, CFL current uniforms as a whole might be the worst overall look for a league in the history of North American pro sports.

I prefer alternate jerseys to be worn with normal helmets and pants.. Not sure how unpopular that is, but I often hear people saying something like "they should've worn a black helmet too" but I think it's a nice way to keep 2/3 of the team's primary look in place if you're going to do a bfbs/gfgs/etc jersey

The bottom three haven't been worn for several years.

My unpopular opinion is that CFL identities really aren't that bad. Aside from Montréal, all teams have good logos and workable colour schemes (however poor their execution may be). You've got two terrific looks (TOR, HAM), two-and-a-half good looks (BC, WPG, and EDM's home), an okay look (MTL), two bad looks (SSK, OTT), and two downright horrendous looks (CGY, EDM's road). The NHL has a similar ratio.

OldSchoolVikings might call for my crucifixion because of this opinion, but I think that my favorite look for the Vikings is the white facemask period:

I still like the purple, grey, and black masks, but the white ones take the cake for me. Maybe it's the balance of colors that makes it work more than it does for other teams (especially when the Vikings only wore white pants). I don't share these feelings for any other white facemask.

You know, that's really not a bad look at all. I still prefer the purple mask personally, but I think white works, at least with that set.

For the current uniforms I'd go with:

White (White is as important as gold for this set and the contrast would look good)

Purple (For obvious reasons)

Grey (This set feels classic and grey fits this definition)

Black (It sticks out like a sore thumb)

I definitely don't prefer black as it's totally unnecessary. But I don't think it sticks out that much; not nearly as much as gray. However, the sorest thumb here is white. Purple to me is the way to go for the Vikings' face masks.

Give me the 90s (Cris Carter era?) any day.

I like these:

I would personally scrap the logo on the front and just go with the script, and I would also relocate the front numbers to where they should be (underneath the script). I think that could be a solid look.

I like them too, but I'm a 90s kid and I also like the Islanders fisherman logo and some other 90s stuff most people hate.

I even considered getting a Barkley or Yao throwback.
