UUOTD-Saturday


Today, sadly, marked the end of football season, with today's Pro Bowl in Hawaii. I didn't watch it. Nonetheless, we now have an off-season full of mini-camps, free agency, and the draft. It won't be long until training camps open in August.

Today's last game also continued a trend: ugly uniforms at the Pro Bowl. These may not have been the worst ones the NFL has slapped on these guys. However, these are pretty bad. The watermarks under the front of the jerseys have got to go. They look like most countries' paper money. I don't want to see stars or some tropical design under the front of the jersey. Just give me a number and maybe a team name, and I'm fine with it.

Also, the patches make the uniform look a little busy. We don't need the team name on the front and the logo on the side. We already know what team he plays for. The Pro Bowl logo looks a little like the Survivor logo, but they didn't use brown as the color. The patches on the jersey make it look too busy, and make it look too much like NFL Europe. Which German beer is going to sponsor the teams next year?

Tiki Barber is pictured here in his last game. These jerseys were a cruel joke to play on him.

Why you gotta throw my man Tiki under the bus like that. Wasn't there other less fine (and less fine looking) players than that with those buttugly unis on.

The stars on it reminds me of a little three year old girl's outfit.

That was the best picture I could find of the uniform. The white ones the AFC wore were even worse.

Like I said, it was a bad joke to play on him for his last game.

The stars were something you'd see on a little three year-old girl's outfit. Where's Dora the Explorer when you need her? LOL

Oh, yeah. This one, especially the AFC white version, is worthy of two eye gouges.
