Observation about Arena League

Portland's helmet has a giant blue stripe which looks like they got the tape from Home Depot. The shapes of blue on the stripe and jerseys loare not even close to being similar. To make things worse the stripe just ends abruptly mid way up the helmet.

I like Arizona's uniforms but wish they had more teal and would wear a copper helmet with teal facemask... but I'm just being nostalgic to the days when the AFL was a respectable minor league. Maybe in the coming years the league can continue to gain momentum and sign a bigger Television deal with ABC/ESPN and MAYBE we'll see them get a new apparel deal with Adidas/Reebok, Nike or (call me a dreamer) Under Armour,

If the AFL signs with Adidas, then expect all most all the top teams to have the same template.

since there is no such thing as a "top team" in the AFL they will all have the same template, and 3 stripes everywhere

Would love to see a complete makeover of this league. Get some real sports owners in here, invest some money, take the AFL back to the days where some people actually cared about this league. At one time, this was a pretty succesful league, and I believe there's still a thirst for this kinda football. A lack of marketing as well as a crappier product has scared a lot of fans off. Unfortunately, the league is moving towards being just absolutely outrageous with these new looks (Kiss, Thunder).

The AFL has always been like that.

The Portland jersey works. The Portland uniform is an atrocity. Red socks to go with all of that?

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.

But at least they were a once respectable league with respectable uniforms. Now they're just going for shock value.
