IC Khari Posted May 7, 2014 Report Share Posted May 7, 2014 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 ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MOBomberFan Posted May 7, 2014 Report Share Posted May 7, 2014 I like them... but I was also expecting saw blades and serrated edges everywhere, so I had set the bar pretty low already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logan007 Posted May 7, 2014 Report Share Posted May 7, 2014 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tracker Posted May 7, 2014 Report Share Posted May 7, 2014 Better than I had expected, considering the gawdawful name for the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Logan007 Posted May 7, 2014 Report Share Posted May 7, 2014 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CodyT Posted May 7, 2014 Report Share Posted May 7, 2014 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iso_55 Posted May 7, 2014 Report Share Posted May 7, 2014 Not a fan of the look. Black jersey & pants?? Wow, how imaginative is that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueBall Posted May 7, 2014 Report Share Posted May 7, 2014 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dascow Posted May 7, 2014 Report Share Posted May 7, 2014 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.

TrueBlue Posted May 7, 2014 Report Share Posted May 7, 2014 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, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
