May 7, 201411 yr Nice, but the all black or all white look is getting a bit overdone in sports. Not quite as bad as the Riders all white monstrosity but close ...
May 7, 201411 yr If you haven't seen pictures of them yet here's a link: http://www.cfl.ca/article/back-in-red-and-black-ottawa-launches-new-uniforms
May 7, 201411 yr I like them... but I was also expecting saw blades and serrated edges everywhere, so I had set the bar pretty low already.
May 7, 201411 yr Yeah, looks pretty generic. I was expecting something a little more. Although generic can be good as to much can end up being just too much.
May 7, 201411 yr They look a lot like Calgary's black unis to me. YES! Thank you. I was like, they look like someone else's uniform, but I couldn't remember which team.

Probably couldn't have been that hard... the only other team that wears red and black! But I agree that the all-black and all-white looks very pale... I also thought a team called redblacks would feature a little more red on their jerseys.... it's just the numbers on the homes and basically non-existent on the roads.... just changing up the pants would make a big difference, red pants at home and red or black on the road

LEAVE ME ALONE *runs into my room crying*
May 7, 201411 yr I'm sorry but I have to vent about this. Why in the **** would they name their team the red blacks. The idea is to appeal to a younger generation as well, especially if you want to build a loyal fan base for years to come. Who in the hell would want to cheer for the red blacks? The white uniforms are okay but the black ones look like a generic uni I would make for my team on madden. Ottawa is off to a rough start.
May 7, 201411 yr I like the number font they used (in keeping with the logo) but really, other than that everything about this team so far, from their name (or sorry; their NAME) to their tacky-Canadian-stereotype mascot to their uniforms just seems silly and bland/generic to me. If they couldn't go back to being the Rough Riders, then even the Renegades theme would have been better than this. Whatever, at least there's another team in the league and hopefully the fans in Ottawa are happy with it.
May 7, 201411 yr These new unis are pretty uninspiring in my opinion. Black on Black on Black for home and White on White on White for away. It just feels lazy. I can’t wait until someone in the Bomber office gets their head out of their ass and gives us our Royal Blues, full time.

May 7, 201411 yr Not a fan of the look. Black jersey & pants?? Wow, how imaginative is that?I I somewhat agree, but like Logan said, doing more could have been too much.
May 7, 201411 yr Agree that red pants would have probably been a better option. Then you've at least attempted to stand out among the prominent black uniforms of Hamilton, and Calgary,

May 7, 201411 yr BC is going black on black.... Hamilton is black on black... For an 8...errrr.... 9 team league there's a lot of copy catting going around.
May 11, 201411 yr Author How come Kevinn Glen is not in the picture?????? He's in the background hard to see, here I blew his headshot up ...
May 12, 201411 yr There is no frickin uniform that is better than ours. Third jersey yes, absolutely. But the pinheads with the Bombers don't get it.
