HOW TO DO ORANGE RIGHT:



The Miami Dolphins are 3-0 in these unis. You'd think they'd wear them more often!

Our resident sports fashion critic, Mr. Coloredwell, discovered a weird sensory overload trick recently while watching a Tennessee Volunteers game: "The Vols also wear a nice juicy orange uniform, and I was swigging orange kool-aid while looking at those delicious jerseys. My eyes and my taste buds were sending totally harmonious signals to my brain. It was better than dropping orange sunshine acid! Fabulous! I plan to replay that orange Dolphins game while drinking Orange Crush soda. Just imagine what it must have been like to do that during a Broncos game in the 70s."

"The Monday night game just ended a while ago, and ohhhhh what I would give to be in the Dolphins locker room right now, sucking on one of those jerseys! Nummy nummy nummy!"

BTW the Tampa Bay Buccaneers are scheduled to wear their orange 'creamsicle' unis later this season. I hope Mr. C gets a room for that one.

I'M NOT DEAD

I've just been pining for the fjords. Anyway, Mr. Coloredwell insisted that I post something about the Broncos throwbacks.



I'm with Mr. Coloredwell on this, that's an awesome uni. [PS: I've got to get a pair of those socks! Alas, they're sold out for now.]

This of course sets up what might turn out to be the greatest throwback uniform matchup of all time, next Monday night, Denver at San Diego. Hawthorn Hawks lookalikes vs the good ol' powder blues. I cannot wait.

BTW, I'm adding Mr. Coloredwell's National Fashion League standings to the Pond, so's y'all can keep up.
