Hornets Show Off New Mardi Gras Uni’s
Yesterday, the New Orleans Hornets unveiled their new threads in true N’awlins fashion: Mardi Gras style. In an elaborate celebration in New Orleans, members of the Hornets showed off the new jerseys with the Mardi Gras float, beads, a marching band and of course, the cheerleaders. The first thing you notice about the new uniforms is the “NOLA” logo across the front. Then, you notice the back of the purple uniforms are teal and the sides have a gold pattern. Personally, I think they’re too loud, but who knows, it might help them win a few games and lord knows they need it. The uniforms will debut in in February during Mardi Gras.
What do you guys think of these uniforms?

Why in the hell is Wright posing like he’s on a cat walk?
Then Collinson looks like he’s trying to “back that thang up”.
LMAO, that shit is gay to the 4th power.

Wright is walking down a set of stairs, and Collison is just standing there. You boys need to get comfortable with your sexuality.

Don’t mind the green but not feeling the purple which i’m normally quite partial to.
But honestly i don’t care much, this isn’t going to make them any better…

Sure took a heaping helping of Brendan Haywood-esque ignorance to incorporate a gay stereotype onto a topic so NOT RELATED to the subject matter. Commenters 1, 3 & 4 are encouraged to open a thesaurus next go’round.
Kthanxbye
BTW… the unis are at once loud and strong, just like the city they represent.

Worse than Wizards gold hands down! They gotta start restricting teams from making these crazy uniforms. Some of them are so hideous.
CP3, time to get traded to Knicks, make it happen man, start pouting.

That's what's up says:
Can’t wait to see CP3 in this uni doing ‘3 snaps in Z formation’

tick tock, just because your teams new jerseys are awful, and the players look gay posing in them, says nothing about the level of comfort with our sexuality.
They should sign the Worm to market them….
awful jerseys, worse than when the All Star Jerseys were two toned–just a bad concept in general…

BringEmOut02 says:
Eeeeeyeahhhh KnicksFan, that’s gonna happen. One, the word “pouting” doesn’t exist in CP’s vocabulary and two, the KNICKS?!? Hahahaha

BringEmOut02 says:
Look, fans are free to like the unis or not – makes me no difference whatsoever. Everyone gets a take. No worries. But the gay slurs? It’s the 21st century – let’s move forward & find more creative, progressive ways to express distastes.

@ sans
Sure it does. When your first reaction to something is “it’s gay”, the problem is with you.

Those uniforms are terrible. You wonder if they ever ask for opinions on these things before they give the approval to make that the final decision.

fallinup says:
Sheesh… they’re Mardi Gras colors. I don’t see what’s so bad about em… considering that they are Mardi Gras colors. I’m curious to see what’s printed on the side.
I like the NOLA in the front though. They should wear that from now on.

Can’t hate on the awful colors…they’re repping the culture with the Mardi Gras colors.
And no homo but Collison is definitely trying to make sure the camera catches that NOLA logo on his ass! haha
November 19th, 2009 at 12:35 pm
JOB33 says:
I’m suprised the logo says “NOLA” and not just “NA”..homeboy looks like he’s clutching those cheeks!!!

Guarantee . . . at least half of the people making the gay slurs are gay themselves . . . not that there’s anything wrong with that.
