Xodius Posted December 27, 2012 Share Posted December 27, 2012 It'd be a terrible design even without the unnecessary text as the colours and striping are the very definition of derivative. It's blue counterpart would come very close to topping the list of a "Worst Dark Uniform In Sports" Thread.Aside from its comparisons to the Leafs and Red Wings, purely from an aesthetic perspective what's wrong with the jersey design itself?

Cujo Posted December 27, 2012 Share Posted December 27, 2012 Outdated. NNOB. Mismatching logos. Just plain boring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shumway Posted December 27, 2012 Share Posted December 27, 2012 The runaway winner (loser):As a stand alone jersey, I have no issues with these. However, when paired with the blue helmet and pants with blue stripes, this becomes one of the worst uniforms in the NFL. If the jerseys has a trace of blue, this wouldn't be that bad of a set, although I still don't like the Giants in gray pants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Santa gave them special sand-skates that allowed them to play in shorts and t-shirts in 115 degree weather. Jesus, Zeus and Buddha watched from the sidelines and ate cotton candy.

EVER.When paired with a matching gray/silver helmet, it doesn't look so bad. Detroit and Oakland look fine on the road. If Dallas had matching silvers (preferably the green-blue-silver), they wouldn't look so bad either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhlyBoy Posted December 27, 2012 Share Posted December 27, 2012 Unpopular, but I've grown to love this look. In recent history it reminds me of the Pack losing in the playoffs twice to them in those unis, but I can't deny I love the look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never understood why the Giants' grey pants get so much hate around here. Especially when everyone seems to love the Cunningham-era Eagles unis.That said, I still say this is the best the Giants have ever looked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jungle Jim Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 These are actually the only Bengals unis that I find tolerable. That stupid white side panel on the black and orange jerseys kills the entire thing for me.Yep, the original poster stated "Lets post pics of White uniforms we feel is definitely worse then the teams color or gray (for baseball) uniform!", so even if we agree that all the Bengals uniforms are bad, I can't agree that the white is worse than the black.

Jungle Jim Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 The runaway winner (loser):Runner-up:You're crazy.Are you referring to my choice of the Giants, the Steelers, or both? If it's the Steelers, it's because of the yellow pants paired with the black helmet. The Packers set works with yellow pants because the helmet and pants balance one another. The Steelers would be well-served to wear black pants with a yellow stripe when wearing the white jerseys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their identity before was so unique. No other team in pro sports looked like them. Ironically, their identity upon being "edged" was also unique, but for all the wrong reasons.

They're in my bottom third.You can say that the road whites could be tweaked a little better. You can even say that the number should be a block font. However, saying that they look "awful" on both the home and away is quite the statement. Not even considering the history and success that is associated with the home uniform, the gold pants/black jersey/black helmet combo is a solid combination. Nowhere near the worst. I will say this though. There are a couple things that the Steelers need on both the home and away.1) The aforementioned block number font needs to come back.2) The Steelers need to tweak their shoulder stripes. I can't stand the way they cut off with the new template. They need to find a way so that every stripe is visible for every player.3) Add a black pants option for the road.4) Go back to this throwback set......but use gold pants like their 1953 set had.
