Oregon Football – The Only Reason I’m Glad that I Don’t have a HDTV

Anyone who saw the Pioneer PureVision Las Vegas Bowl saw the latest step in Oregon’s quest to find the most hideous uniform combination in the history of football. Holy crap, take a look at this:

In what is unfortunately NOT a Photoshopped picture, the Ducks tried their hardest to give everyone in the stands (and watching at home) epileptic seizures that will last for days. While it may have been cheaper to give everyone in the stands acid, Oregon decided to…uh…um…damn it. I lost my train of thought just thinking about those glow in the dark monstrosities helmets. Flames. On a helmet. Unbelievable. I think the biggest irony of the whole deal may be that the bowl game was sponsored by an HDTV company.

Let’s look back at some of Oregon’s past Halloween costumes uniforms. There were the tops with at least 15 different shades of green mixed with neon yellow. Then this year, they added the chrome pattern on the shoulders and knees. And now the sun helmets. Throw in a couple of the players that are wearing yet another shade of yellow on their shoes and you’ve got Oregon football. Yikes.
