    Duh - best uniform:

    If it isn't a set of US Marine Corps dress blues, it's not in first place.

    MC Blues were tops until the Army Blues became the standard class A.

    Navy? Same as marines - although the dress whites are sharp.

    As for where the military is concerned, my favorite uniform is worn by any person who volunteers to serve our great country. I like the uniform even more when it's loaded with medals, like Giunta above, and from any branch

    Army blues look like a doorman's outfit.

    I'm kinda like Gibbs on NCIS. I keep my medals in a box. (And I was doing that before NCIS was on the tube, btw)

    It's not the uniform that matters in the military. Bergdhal's got one. It's who's inside it.

    As far as sports go, I became a Steelers fan in 1970 because they had THE coolest uniforms. Dallas is kind of even, IMO. The rest are in last place.

    The UGLIEST uniforms from Day One and they kept changing them to uglier is Seattle. Tampa Bay is right ther with them. TB used to have cool uniforms then went over the cuckoo nest.

    The Patriots' original uniform was better than the one they have now.

    The Jets' uniform during the 80's and 90's reeked. So did the Chargers. Glad both teams came back from Mars.

    Baltimore's uniform sucks.

    Nobody EVER know what the Falcons are going to show up in.

    Little history ...

    Teams are all colorful now. Anyone ever wonder why from the late 50's to the early 70's their uniforms were monochromatic? Because B&W TV was monochromatic. They showed up better.

    Most teams wore a dark jersey or white jersey and white pants.

    Historically, the dark jersey was for road teams because they didn't have access to to "hometown" laundry on the road.

    Football wasn't big business until the late 70s - early 80s.

    I love Gibbs! I know it's just a character, but he seems so honorable and respectable (when not smacking Dinozzo in the head).

    As far as sports go, I became a Steelers fan in 1970 because they had THE coolest uniforms. Dallas is kind of even, IMO. The rest are in last place.
    Black and Gold all the way! Dallas can't have a nice uniform, I hate them.

    The UGLIEST uniforms from Day One and they kept changing them to uglier is Seattle. Tampa Bay is right ther with them. TB used to have cool uniforms then went over the cuckoo nest.
    Seattle's has kind of grown on me. They need a cooler bird though. But I like the colors.

    The Patriots' original uniform was better than the one they have now.
    I thought their originals were cool too. I didn't hate the Patriots yet back then either. And their coach wasn't a cheater back then.

    The Jets' uniform during the 80's and 90's reeked. So did the Chargers. Glad both teams came back from Mars.
    I think the Jets uniforms still suck, but I'm jaded. I also think the NY Giants uniforms suck. I hope the Meadowlands implodes.

    Baltimore's uniform sucks.
    They can wear anything at all and they will always suck. I hate them more and more each year.

    Nobody EVER know what the Falcons are going to show up in.
    I like the colors here too, but they also need a cooler bird.

    Let's not forget Cincy and those awful stripes!! I love the Redskins and especially their logo, as it offends people suddenly. And I also love the uniforms of the Purple People Eaters!

    Wait a second everyone! Just wait, and consider this!

    We all know. IF you have ever visited a HOOTERS (Jim?), there is little Doubt about their Uniform. "RIGHT?"

    NO Deadskins. I like their uniform for one reason ... they've had it since 1971 and won't let the PC f*ckheads take it away.

    I get Baltimore. I don't know if I can't stand them more because of Art Modell, or because they always screw up the Steelers. I think Modell is secretly Jerry Jones' dad.

    THe Bengals are okay. Better than their original which was a copycat Cleveland Browns uniform with "Bengals" in black on the side of the helmet. They exist because the coach of the Browns, Paul Brown, got fired and formed his own AFL team. The Cleveland Browns are named after Paul Brown. The Bengals was his way of getting back.

    I have no love for ANY NYC team.

    Oh, and whoever does the details for NCIS is GOOD. Mark Harmon plays a Gunny just the way we are. We aren't allowed to smack our troops in the head though.
