2014 Alternate Unis?

Nah, not offended. No worries.

Back in my skinnier days I did a lot of cross-country biking (big Tour de France fan here). My bike was ice pink.

I've never thought of pink as unmanly and I don't know why it's considered to be. I have a pink polo I still wear once in a while.

It's a color. Who cares, right?

I get that, but, that isn't the issue. I don't look at it as being a girly color. I just think it gets overdone in football uniforms. That's it.

I mean, october is also liver cancer awareness month, but we aren't throwing a ton of green into our uni's.

September has like 6 "________" cancer awareness's all having their own separate color. None of that is recognized either.

This isn't an "its not fair" thing either. So please no one make it seem that way.

The concept is good but only 25% of the money is going to research and there haven't been any real advances in medicines. Good cause that's mismanaged.

That is a real problem, but there have been advances. I've seen them first-hand. Someone I know and love should by all rights be gone right now, but she's still here thanks to those advances.

Now, are those advances in treatment directly tied to stuff like Breast Cancer Awareness Month? Couldn't tell you. But it can't hurt.

 
Wearing pink is one of the manliest things a guy can do, because it shows they don't care that a bunch of idiots think it's a girl color.

Every year people complain about the alternate uniforms, and every year after the game they say they looked better than they expected on the field.

It's one game. Recruits like it. The players like it. Who gives a sh#t what they wear?

What matters most, is the score.

 
At the game now. Helmets look awesome, the rest of the uni is cheap looking to me. Now, having said that, the Illini look like Walmart Halloween decorations.....sheesh!

In my expert fashionista opinion, the whole thing is pretty.




. . bad.

Alt uniforms is like cheating on your spouse. It's generally a bad idea, but if you're going to do it, at least go for an upgrade.

I like the uni's tonight, what I would like to see in the future is the helmets be white chromed with a red chromed N and red chromed stripe or a red chromed helmet with a white N and white stripe.
