The other cleat drops


There's nothing I can say about
Oregon's Uniform Proposals, 2009 that wasn't said far more eloquently and hilariously on EDSBS.

In general, though, I think of the various clown suits they've been wearing recently, these are the best looking, i.e., least gay. But the "feathers" on the shoulders still seem too trompe-l'oeil for a football field.

When I first saw the metally feather-shapes-that-looked-like-straight-razors-or-maybe-retractable-wing-flaps last year I was sure it was a design riff on Gladiator-style Roman armor. Which I thought was kind of cool. Turned out that, no, they were supposed to be just .. feathers. Now, they have a new "color" called Steel. But the shoulder thingies are still.. metal feathers. Bleh.

And there ain't nothing uniform about any of this stuff.
