nash61 Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 The helmet logo and lack of a white jersey are the only bad parts of the Blue Bombers new look.

TheOldRoman Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 Could the numbers from this era look any cheaper? The Champion number font has to be one of the worst ever.Segueing nicely into an unpopular opinion of mine: I like the Champion number font. It's legible and classic without looking too "blocky".I love it, too. Should all teams use it? No. Did it look cheap when they made Emmitt Smith replica jerseys in that font? Absolutely. That doesn't mean it's not great for some teams. To me, a kid growing up in the '90s, that font IS the Buffalo Bills. Their jerseys really lost something with Logo Athletic took over and gave them standard block. I wished the new Bills jerseys used that font.

I don't know if this is also champion font, but the Bengals used to wear this font and I love it. That is, even if it's impossible to find an accurate Boomer throwback.

Silver_Star Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 When it came to Giant's uniforms.GoodBadAND OH SO UGLY!!! *pukes*To Giants fans, I am sorry for posting the 1975-1979 look. I thought that was the most ugliest things I have ever seen worn before!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheOldRoman Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 Yes, the Bengals, Jets and Saints all used the Champions font in the '90s. I associate the Bills and Bengals with that font. The Jets still looked good after changing to a block font (before they changed to the current set), and the Saints' Champion era jerseys weren't very good. However, the Bills and Bengals looked great in that era and I wish both could still wear that font. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nuordr Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 I love monochrome football uniforms. I love Black-Out football uniforms from team with no black in their color scheme. I love the new gray/dark gray trend in NCAA Football, especially the Washington State dark gray.I hate all-white football uniforms. I hate football uniforms with no striping on the pants.

Kramerica Industries Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 The only reason the Giants looked bad in red jerseys is because, well, they are "Big Blue", so wearing red never made any sense.If they were ever going to wear alts, they should've gone the throwback route. As it is, the Giants really don't need alts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheOldRoman Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 Here's an opinion which I know is unpopular - I loved the last Broncos helmet. I thought that shade of blue worked perfectly with orange and always felt that the blue on the uniforms should have been changed to match the helmets.

cmm Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 Probably unpopular, but I didn't mind the Giants in red as an alternate. It wasn't a true throwback but it brought back an old look for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
