49ers’ new alternate uniforms turn to the dark side

“I love the jerseys. I think it’s a fresh look,” said quarterback Colin Kaepernick in a statement. “This is the first time we’ve had a black jersey in our team’s history and it’s something that the fans are going to be excited about.”

And it's fucking things up, IMO. Not the uniforms, which, even though a joke, are irrelevant.

The stadium? Fail. Santa Clara? Fail. Harbaugh? Fail. The Faithful? Fail.

Its become so bad with the colleges that you can't even tell who is playing without looking at the score on the screen with some teams. Now its invading the pros.

they could've added some more gold either on the jersey or pants. Their gold helmet looks out of place in that picture.
Either way, though, this is an obvious cash grab. The 49ers' classic unis looked fine.
