Reebok has apologized for a “design error” that led to the release of a Ultimate Fighting Championship T-shirt that ignited controversy in Ireland. The shirt, which has been pulled from Reebok’s website, shows a map of the Republic of Ireland with “Ireland” emblazoned across the chest. The problem is that

Cavs unveil three alternate uniforms, including black sleeved alternate
Earlier today, Cleveland Cavaliers owner Dan Gilbert posted three hilariously awful uniform designs on his twitter page. However, because of the state of uniform design in the NBA in the present-day, this caused enough people to believe that this could’ve been a legit surprise. Shortly afterwards, the Cavs officially unveiled
Mets Jump the Gun?
With a 3-0 lead over the Cubs in the National League Championship Series, the Mets advancing to the World Series might seem like a foregone conclusion. The Mets took that conclusion to the next logical step today, inadvertently (we assume) posting an ad for National League Champion hats and shirts before

The National Basketball Association’s reigning “logoman” for the past 40 years, Jerry West, has picked his preferred logo successor. It’s hard to argue with his choice. “Michael Jordan has been the greatest player I’ve ever seen… he would be a wonderful person to have there” – Jerry West Anyone who

Texas A&M won’t be able to wear their “Light Up the Night” unis at night

Braxton Miller’s black Ohio State jersey has a slight error
Tonight is the big night: Ohio State is wearing their all-black uniforms, and they even added an extra detail to the special uniforms: Instead of the regular Buckeye leaf helmet stickers that the team usually wears, they’ve decided to replace those with special scarlet-colored Buckeye leaf helmet stickers. It’s a
Packers are set to debut Curly Lambeau-era throwback uniforms
After unveiling their “new” throwbacks this past Summer, the Packers are set to wear them for their Week 6 matchup against the San Diego Chargers. As I said in the linked post above, these uniforms aren’t bad, but they aren’t good either, and it’s basically because of the fact that
The Ocean Blue? The Story Behind the Columbus Clippers
The city of Columbus, Ohio, is named in honor of the first European to set foot in North America, Norwegian explorer Leif Erikson. JUST KIDDING. We never talk about Leif Erikson because we don’t know exactly what date he first landed on coastal North America, so we can’t write catchy poems about
Baseball Blues: When Powder Was the Rage
Sure, all the talk in baseball these days is about royal blue, with the Blue Jays, Royals, Mets, and Cubs wearing the color in their respective League Championship Series. But there was a time when another shade of blue ruled the Major League Baseball landscape. This photo from 1981, dredged
Anaheim Ducks Officially Unveil, Wear New Alternate Uniform
