Related: About this forum49ers’ new alternate uniforms turn to the dark side
I love the jerseys. I think its a fresh look, said quarterback Colin Kaepernick in a statement. This is the first time weve had a black jersey in our teams history and its something that the fans are going to be excited about.

Or perhaps some free agents.

That seems to be what matters to him.

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.

(10,893 posts)9. Their new unis look OK, but
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.
