But thinking back on my childhood it probably has something to do with that. I had grad parents living in anaheim at the time that sent me a t shirt and hat that I wore everywhere as a 6 years old. So the only real reason i like these jerseys are for nostalgic reasons, plus I don't think they look that bad. BroncosThey were so goofy that it was fun seeing Denver wear these, but in reality, they're awfulIt's really just the socks that ruins it, though. Take them away, and the helmet-jersey-pants combination actually look all right.....They were a bit more tolerable to look at the following week down in San Diego.The road uniform would have been better if they didn't use the pants with yellow stripes, they looked out of place with the primarily brown and yellow uniform set THE ROCKIES STIRRUP PROJECTPart 1, Part 2...Oregon Duck Tracker 2011 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John in KY Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 This is a prime example of why pullovers were a bad idea for classic teams:And we wonder why the Giants never participate in "Turn Back the Clock" nights.It's that plus their current uniforms are pretty similar to the ones they wore when they moved to SF - the font size and that extra gold outline (that is only visible on extreme close-ups or when you're holding a jersey) are the main differences. To look visably different and not wear the pullovers they would have to either wear the 70s ones with orange letters/numbers, the 80s uniforms, or wear an NY road uniform for the pre-1958 look.

CMUBrent Posted August 20, 2011 Share Posted August 20, 2011 Flint Generals (2008-09)Hated the logo, and didn't care for the stripes on the jerseys.Saginaw Spirit ("Gears Throwback Night", 2010-11)Making a Gears throwback jersey? Great idea. Using an orange and blue Spirit logo as the primary logo for a Gears jersey? Beyond stupid. Detroit LionsBlack for Black's Sake. The Lions should always wear blue at home.1960 Detroit TigersNever mess with a classic uniform. 1982-83 Detroit Red WingsNothing wrong with the jersey, just the outrageous rounded numbers.

WSU151 Posted August 20, 2011 Share Posted August 20, 2011 Self explanatory!Yeah I don't think there's any argument there. Those are hideous. The skinny helmet stripe in 2007 (or so) was also pretty ugly. Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

agentrygraphics Posted August 21, 2011 Share Posted August 21, 2011 and that Generals crest was an arrowhead...eh, why exactly? The city of Flint's seal features a predominant arrowhead. It is also on their police dept badges.

Stampman Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 Was never really a fan of these, but hated them when they were worn at the Grey Cup in '07...Especially when they've had so many other nice unis to choose from.I didn't mind them for a throwback game--but the Grey Cup deserves something better.

NEW.ERA Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 Worst Bombers jerseys in my mind. Couldn't find an action shot, but these are the worst.I know the uniform lasted from 95 to 2004, but the use of a blue helmet was what made me hate this look. Thankfully it only lasted a couple seasons. JETS|PACK|JAYS|NUFC|BAMA|BOMBERS|RAPS|ORANJE| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
