For those of you who haven't seen this article of what the ducks could have worn for their NC game....here you go

I didn't choose UCLA, Arizona, or USC because they haven't really changed much over the last 10 years.

All the black unis are pretty poorly done, including our Giant Killers. The new Wazzu away unis are worse than the blacks. Cal's all-yellow was a pretty egregious error, but it didn't last all season like the sports bra did. That sports bra was the cruelest joke anyone could have played.

I could not care less what Duck High wears. 99% of their unis fall in the category of "the worst there is except for the Beavs' sports bras".

I voted bra. Those things were so embarrassing. I was posting at a paid site at the time they came out, and guys on the forums were staunchly defending them. It was hilarious to read, and I wish I had this site at the time so I could share the comments.

Nike truly is horrible. I've seen the light.

Was it being reminded of the sports bras that got you to thinking? Everyone is usually split when a new uni comes out for any school. But it takes a while for those who are smitten with the hype to realize that something ugly is truly ugly.

The Ducks are good with what they have. They are garish and ugly. But they embrace it with a "so what?" attitude. It works for them. What others don't get is that they know it's ugly stuff. They just don't care. If the opponent wants to wonder what uni they're wearing, then the tough questions about scheme and personnel are forgotten.

That, and I wonder how many Nike plants are cruising through all the forums looking to hype the unis. Sometimes it feels as if talking points are being thrown out about some unis--pro on one school's forum and con on their rival's forum... just to get the talk heated and about Nike.

It's what I would do.

I think it was the new ASU uniforms that did it. Those are horrible.

Nike seems to believe everyone should look like a badass, futuristic gladiator rather than a football player. I'm going to call it "Mad Max Beyond the Thunderdome Syndrome".

They are pretty bad. Dumping Sparky was a bad idea, but I do like the new block font. That's all I like though.

So what I get out of this is a street gang knows what a trident is, but a Pac 10 school doesn't know the difference between a gig and a fork. Nice.

I want them to publicize their copyright case when it comes to that.

I thought Nike's designs were terrible, looks like Under Armor is attempting to keep up with the Jones'...
