This a good crack

"They should be riding on a horse at Saratoga," one spectator cracked Thursday while watching the officials oversee a practice session.

After seeing that photo, I'm wishing we could wear black shorts for scrimmages and sub-varsity. We're still in white.

I haven't logged on in a while, but had to come back to see what's going on with these new uniforms. I thought maybe they were just for pre-season, but am a bit shocked to see that they'll be used full-time.

I agree with the jockey comment, though!

I don't think anyone, old school or otherwise, really cared much about teams' uniform changes other than the fans of the particular team -- unless the unis were really outlandish. I'm not a Rams fan, but I didn't like the Rams change a few years ago, since I liked the Rams' uniform. But that wasn't a style thing, rather, the color.

I can deal with the shirt change. If they left everything else alone, that would be fine. Going to sweat pants.

These uniforms highlight the fact that the average NFL official is a bit chubby except for Ed Hochuli who looks like Mr. Universe.

Not only does he look, but he is!

Alright, I've came around and I guess they are ok. But, what I won't change my mind on is the black kickers. Yuck...

These uniforms are just awful. What the hell were they thinking with those stripes the way they are?
