University Of Maryland Shows Pride

Last night was The University Of Maryland's opening game against the famed Miami Hurricanes.  The talk wasn't about the scandal that took place in south Florida, but rather the uniform that Maryland wore.






In a show of state pride, University Of Maryland wore a uniform inspired by their state flag.  The social networking community went A-Wall over this choice of pride.  Many where hating this idea calling it a "Fail" but I roll with the side of creativity and honorable.  Nothing will get your fan base to rally behind more than showing pride for who you play for.  I commend the athletic director of Maryland.  Wise choice and I'm all for it.

This outcry by social media made me think back to some real epic fails in the sports uniform world.  Below are some uniforms that were better off being erased from history.  The order will go from ok to WTF.  Behold the uniform fails courtesy of the National Football League.  Enjoy


Tampa Bay Buccaneers Throwbacks


Arron Rodgers December 5th, 2010 with the Green Bay Packer's throwback . . . .really?


Now this is bad.  From fashion no no to what the heck were you thinking.  This is by far the worst in NFL history.


So, there you have it.  Maryland did their thing when it can to creativity and pride.  As for the other photos, Tampa Bay isn't bad.  I believe the orange cream color uniforms stood out.  Moving on to the Packers, it could of been worse.  I mean they are still bad, but the team has so much history that you really can't be that mad at them.  Please note that the choice still sucked, but it didn't earn honors of Epic Fail and WTF.  Those awards go to the Eagles.  This choice is so bad that I will not even comment. 


 
Til Next Time,
