Well, the Green Bay Packers aren’t winning it. The Packers made it to the final eight in Dave Dameshek’s greatest NFL uniforms contest, where they were squared off against the San Francisco 49ers in the NFC’s current uniforms bracket.
The 49ers won.
It’s now down to the final two. The 49ers will face off against the winner of the alternate/classic uniforms bracket. That’s the Carolina Panthers 2012 alternate uniforms.
Say what?
Yeah, the 2012 Carolina Panthers alternate unis featuring the bright blue jerseys are in the finals (we fucked up, they’re the all blacks that are in the finals). And guess what. They’re going to win — as of this posting, the Panthers have over 500,000 votes, while the 49ers have about 85,000.
That could change if the 49ers start running a coordinated PR campaign like the Panthers obviously are.
“Hey, we’ve only been around for about 20 years. We have nothing to hang our hat on as a franchise. Our regular uniforms didn’t make it very far in this meaningless competition. So go vote for our alternate uniforms, so we can show what an awesome franchise we are!”
Carolina’s stadium will soon have a banner hanging that says “Best uniforms of all time — Carolina Panthers*.”
* They were our alternate uniforms from 2012, not our real uniforms, and this was voted by people who go to NFL.com. Also, we ran a PR campaign to win.
Actually, they probably won’t include that last part, but they will be awesome.
BECA– — USE WE HAVE THE BEST UNIFORMS IN NFL HISTORY, GODDAMMIT! WE FUCKIN’ RULE!
Good job, Carolina. I’ll drink your moonshine. I’ll put up with your fucking NASCAR. I’ll laugh when Cam Newton sucks balls for the first 10 games of every season and then runs off six wins in a row to close it, when the games mean nothing.
Best unis of all time?
Blow me.
Oakland. Raiders.
God knows we dont have the best Uniforms in the league much less history. The thought is beyond laughable. But this isn’t really about that. This is much more about poking Dameshek in the eye after he was such a tool in his videos. And to my knowledge this is purely a fan run endevour through our message board, Reddit and Facebook.
Packers have the best unis.Unique, marquis color scheme combined with the most perfectly designed symbol–that illustrious, sacred oval G symbol.
Dave Dameshek is a prick anyway, and was doubtleslly helped via nepotism. Might have to unsubscribe from his podcast. I never learn anything from it anyway.
Here’s another thing. The Carolina Panthers have a silly inane mascot, like so many teams. (including old school historical teams like the Bears and Steelers who should NEVER have adopted some dumb mascot). The mascot’s name is Sir Purr. And here I thought the Seahawks were a fucking joke.
Powder blue Chargers and blue and yellow Rams are the two best in my opinion. Those teams never should have changed from them.
agreed
my vote is Packers #1; and for #2 old school 60’s Rams (Blue & white, home or away they are both cool)
I like the blue and white also.
Such a stupid contest glad its gonna blow up in whoever’s face is running it. Now some talking head has to hype it up like its the truth.
Come on…We all know that the Panthers do not have the greatest uniforms of all time…..But it is sooo worth to see all you fuckers crying about it…..lol
by the way its the all black Panther uniforms that are winning not the blue…..you are soo upset you are reporting the wrong shit,,,lmao
I love how you don’t even have the right picture of the uniform.
The joke is that Carolina’s alternative all blacks they have literally worn ONCE are winning it all.
You whiny bitches are pretending you don’t care while at the same time trying to make fun of carolina to feel better about your losing…when you had threads dedicated to voting for yourselves.
I’m so happy you tools are so butthurt
Lol Yall Mad
i can’t help but notice no one is responding to the carolina fans trolling
perhaps this is because their franchise is entirely irrelevant except for in the realm of arbitrary internet uniform voting contests
I see a pissed off Raiders fan and 12 comments as a result of Panther fans’ trolling.
All this butthurt over an arbitrary Internet voting contest seems like an excellent response to me. The Packers fan is the only one who gets it.
No, LFD, people aren’t responding because only five people read this fucking blog (except for the Carolina Panthers fans with Google alerts who happened to find this entry).
Don’t sleep on the panthers this year —
Luke Kuechly was a beast last year, Cam Newton finished strong, we got some great draft picks, deangelo williams had a great year last year and is in the middle of a career Renaissance, amongst other things.
12-4
haha there was never a campaign for the panthers. Someone is just upset that his favorites teams jersey didn’t win.
I honestly think Green Bay has the best uniform. Mainly because the colors have not changed at all ever since they have been around. Also, they don’t try to be like the raiders and wear black jerseys all the time like some other teams do.
While I think it is too bad that more people do not appreciate Green bay’s uniform as much as I do, it is just a silly contest. And I imagine it did not garner that much attention anyways.
How about those Packers?
Panthers 8 straight…stay classy Green Bay.
