Nike and Under Armor Square off Untelevised as the Hokies Visit the Slowsky’s

Wednesday, November 11th, 2009

In what amounts to a battle of titans, Nike and Under Armor both unveil really ugly uniforms for this weekend’s match up. Luckily for both brands, it won’t mean squat because there isn’t a network on earth that intends to carry this game. Maryland fans will be sporting a ‘black out’ type deal (hopefully it’s not nearly as disappointing as that ‘pirate out’) while their players will be invisible due to uniforms with just a hint of camouflage.

You gotta be kidding me with this crap. Virginia Tech will sport Nike’s ugliest idea yet while aiding Jim Weaver’s plan to ‘Penn State-itize’ the Hokies. Near head to toe solid white uniforms? What happened? Did the prices of imported dye rise with the bad economy? At least if you’re going to make us wear ugly crap, Joe Pa’s corpse should be required to make an appearance on the field.

The worst part about this game is that some members of the Spitzer Tailgate crew will actually be in attendance.  The best part about the game is that I don’t have to be one of them :)

Gobble away, friends
