Just when you thought uniforms couldn't get any worse......

I'm normally down for any opportunity to point and laugh at Notre Dame, but this is just sad.

Apparently ND fans agree with me:
As the last shreds of dignity are stripped from something I hold dear, I realize that I just cannot summon the energy for apoplexy any more.

I am increasingly embarrassed to be associated in any way with this program, however distantly and tangentially. And my emotional investment in the thing continues to wane. I am not alone in this.

The people charged with stewardship of this thing have failed and failed miserably for a very long time. It's just that in the past year, it's reached the realm of the absurd.

Excuse the upchuck, with uniforms like that they should be playing the University of Chicago's Economic's department all star team not a real team. I give up on uniforms.

I just hope Nike dosn't get any stupid ideas for Bama's uniforms. I can see a few little accents here and there from time to time, but those ND uniforms and especially helmets are beyond rediculous.

I think the uniforms look good, and I think the left half of the helmet (from the player's POV) looks ok. The shiny gold is pretty ugly though.

That's just sad. I really really don't like notre dame but this is just depressing. Somebody needs to get a clue and fire the crummy coach they have now and get somebody capable of rebuilding notre dame. A good notre dame is good for college football.

I love this response from an Irish Fan..This poster speaks the truth..

"I am, and will always be, a life long Fighting Irish fan. The uniforms are not too bad. But the helmets are simply awful. They are as bad as the Maryland helmets of last year. Great historic teams don’t change their uniforms or they make minimal changes…New York Yankees, Montreal Canadiens, Boston Celtics, Green Bay Packers, The University of Alabama. Notre Dame used to be on that list. I can’t believe the AD or the head coach didn’t have veto power over Adidas and say “no” to those terrible helmets.."

Everyone is saying they hate them, but not too many giving reasons why. What is it about the uniforms that everyone hates about them (besides the helmet and besides the fact that it's ND, obviously)?

No, they're not.
I dunno, I'm not old school by any means, but I'd rather see a top 25 full of Notre Dame's , Nebraska's and Michigan's no matter how much I hate them rather than the Boise State's, Oregon's & the TCU's of the world.

CFB just seems better when the teams you knew when you were growing up are powerful, no matter how much you hate them, and trust me, I hate them.
