Orioles drop four spots from 2014 to 13th:

 

The Orioles' current home caps and helmets, with the white panel in the front, were a big hit here at Uni Watch HQ when they were reintroduced in 2012. But it's time to admit the hard truth: The white panel was really fun in the 1970s but doesn't work so well today. In fact, it feels a bit rinky-dink, like something a minor league team would wear. Still, a decent-looking set (black and orange work so well together), but they should go back to a conventional headwear template.

 

THANK YOU!

Disagree. The white panel with the home whites is awesome. And better with the home Orange. Black with the road grays is perfect too. Dont change a thing...except get rid of the "O's" hat.

The Dodgers home should be #1 every year. 

 

Love those jerseys.

I would put those #2 and the Cardinals home #1. Only Because the Cardinals are perched on a baseball bat.

Definitely a very cool logo, but I've always liked the Cubs, so it's tough to put the Cards at #1.

The minor league O's jerseys had that too... in the '30's or '40's, I forget exactly when... you used to be able to get a new one from Ebbets Field Flannels, but then MLB Inc clamped down on them making ancient ML uniforms, the jerks... even after they quit selling them, they still had one somewhere on their web site, just because it looked cool (as really old uniforms go...)

 

EDIT: it was a 1939 jersey: http://www.onlinespo...flannels-3.html

Agreed. Get rid of O's hat, double down white panel and cartoon bird.

Can't believe I lived so much of my life with boring ass O's gear.

Yet you want to live so much of it with ugly-ass O's gear?

We need a dislike on BSL.

I know I'm in the extreme minority. I don't care

The 1939 cap was pretty fugly... I think the bird looks strange, in large part because of how its legs are splayed apart... I wonder why they did that...

Unfortunate line placement.
