I'm feeling optimistic about the uniforms now... even if it's the same crap Russell template that the Command wore last year... and I'm sure multiple teams will wear this year...

Notice the jerseys don't have the AFL shield on them.

Yeah, um, you were saying something about the AFL shield? I, ahem, didn't notice.

I'm torn. The template is no good, but the team is back in navy instead of playing Raiders lookalike. A navy team with a black alt never made sense to me. Making it full time was worse. I guess I can live with the unnecessary red as a tradeoff for being navy again. But it's not like I'll be buying any gear anyway.

Let's not kid ourselves into thinking it's going to be anything but navy pants/navy socks full-time, home and away.

For all the bird de lis haters I think the bird de lis isnt supposed to be a pelican and a fleur de lis I think its just a fleur de lis with a pelicans head. Thats what it looks like to me. Also the flair around the tip of the beak is just flair that fleur de lis have sometimes source I am from NOLA.

Not only that. All teams are wearing a Net10AFL patch on the sleeve/shoulder area as well as Net 10 patch on away jerseys. So on away jerseys Net 10 is in two places. Not one or the other. For teams like Arizona, with no logos on sleeves this looks ok. But Phila has there's on the sleeve/shoulder stripe. It looks like crap. And Chicago's numbers on the back remind me of adidas soccer letters. The less letters in the name, the bigger they are. At least with the 2010 number sets.

Judging from pics of the game maybe a couple thousand.

Evidently they're playing a couple of games in Rockford this season. Woof.

You manage to balance agitation with just enough salient points to keep things interesting. Kind of a low-rent DG_Now.

And the team is league-owned again, retroactive to last weekend.

We are rapidly approaching "Lake County Fielders" territory.

Sadly, this is just standard operating procedure in the AFL now. Lest we forget that an owner fired his entire team during a pregame meal at Olive Garden last season.
