SWSiouxMN Posted September 25, 2014 Posted September 25, 2014 Another WTF from Maryland Although some call this ugly, I think this throwback Iowa State helmet with the cyclone is pretty sweet. Hoosier.... No. Quote
SWSiouxMN Posted September 25, 2014 Posted September 25, 2014 Hawaii 1974 helmets We have a winner! Quote
Hayduke Posted September 25, 2014 Posted September 25, 2014 This old Denver Bronco helmet was way fugly... 1 Quote
Shawn-O Posted September 25, 2014 Posted September 25, 2014 This old Denver Bronco helmet was way fugly... 1960-62 was even worse. On a somewhat related note, for the history of the old AFL, check out "Full Color Football", great documentary. Quote
Hayduke Posted September 25, 2014 Posted September 25, 2014 Folks, there's a trend to create some ugly "buckets" (helmets) in sports lately. I'd like to get a compilation going here, from all levels, and all sports, with the goal to put together a bracket and determine the first winner of the "Ugliest Bucket in Sports". I'd like to make a couple nominations: The Jacksonville Jaguars: Did they run out of flat black while repainting their gold helmets? Quote
Hayduke Posted September 25, 2014 Posted September 25, 2014 1960-62 was even worse. On a somewhat related note, for the history of the old AFL, check out "Full Color Football", great documentary. Ah, the infamous verticle striped stockings. Classic... Quote
MafiaMan Posted September 25, 2014 Posted September 25, 2014 Ah, the infamous verticle striped stockings. Classic... That doesn't qualify as a "bucket" though... Quote
Shawn-O Posted September 25, 2014 Posted September 25, 2014 That doesn't qualify as a "bucket" though... The helmets were pretty bad though. Hayduke is right however, the 1962-64 helmets have a horse that looks like glue factory material. 1 Quote
MafiaMan Posted September 26, 2014 Posted September 26, 2014 I don't get the love for the Ravens' helmet...always thought this was a crummy color combination... Quote
MafiaMan Posted September 26, 2014 Posted September 26, 2014 I'm sure JohnboyND7 had in his eyes over the Irish Shamrock Series helmet but this thing was an absolute mess. Quote

The Sicatoka Posted September 26, 2014 Author Posted September 26, 2014 Some Big XII nominees from last night: Not bad up close, but on television it took me a while to figure out if Picasso had done their helmets. Orange chrome? Quote
Siouxperfan7 Posted September 26, 2014 Posted September 26, 2014 Some Big XII nominees from last night: Not bad up close, but on television it took me a while to figure out if Picasso had done their helmets. Orange chrome? No kidding!! Both of those were rediculous!!! Quote
SiouxScore Posted September 26, 2014 Posted September 26, 2014 Some Big XII nominees from last night: Not bad up close, but on television it took me a while to figure out if Picasso had done their helmets. Orange chrome? Texas Tech's were horrible you couldn't even really tell what the logo was during the game, I kinda like the OSU helmets. Quote
JohnboyND7 Posted September 26, 2014 Posted September 26, 2014 #not_relevant_since_about_1988 2014- #8 currently 2013- made title game 2005- finished #9 1993- #2 1992- #4 1990- #6 1989- #3 Those are only top ten finishes.... Yeah... Totally not relevant since'88. Quote
MafiaMan Posted September 26, 2014 Posted September 26, 2014 2014- #8 currently 2013- made title game 2005- finished #9 1993- #2 1992- #4 1990- #6 1989- #3 Those are only top ten finishes.... Yeah... Totally not relevant since'88. That 2013 title game appearance was a joke and you know it. From the phantom interference call in the Pitt game to the miracle of Manti T'eo, the whole sports world fell in love with the mystique of ND. Bob Davie...George O'Leary (until he resigned before coaching a game)...Ty Willingham...Charlie Weis...academic issues...a rape allegation that was covered up (the alleged victim committed suicide)...your Irish are golden in helmet color only.

cberkas Posted September 26, 2014 Posted September 26, 2014 The only reason Notre Dame was in the 2013 title game and why Manti T'eo was even a finalist for the Heisman Trophy, was because of a fake dead girlfriend. Quote

Did Notre Dame lose a game? Who should have went instead? Stanford? Oh! ND beat then.... Oregon? Lost to Stanford. My boys ran into the worst possible matchup. Notre Dame runs a tighter ship that pretty well anyone else with dreams of winning. Someone must still have a broken heart after what the Irish did to Meatchicken. At least those guys play the gophers this week so they have a shot at finally scoring a touchdown against a power 5 team. Quote

Their honorary captain will be 4 year old Chad Carr, grandson of former head Coach Lloyd Carr and son of former QB Jason Carr. Chad has an inoperable brain tumor and is currently undergoing radiation treatment. LOTS of chrome domes and ugly buckets around this weekend. More posts to follow. Quote
UNDBIZ Posted September 29, 2014 Posted September 29, 2014 This one gets my vote. You don't like the bloody stool and dehydrated urine combo? Quote
