Their helmets under Lombardi remain my favorite of theirs, thought it looked great along with their white jersey and yellow pants.

So a Utah helmet with worse colors! Honestly, I just hate when teams use the letter of their nickname vs the letter of the city they're from - they're not representing "Redskins", they're representing Washington.

IOW, Dallas should have a D instead of the Star? 

A plain logo is just fine. It's obviously perfect for Texas. It's only when the letter is the nickname - the Bengals are the only pro team I can think that does that off the top of my head. The A's sort of do, but they're cool and vintage.

Plus, the Athletics have moved around a lot. Philadelphia -> Kansas City -> Oakland -> Sacramento -> Las Vegas. The A's KC ensembles were their best, IMO, bc they repped their hometown on their caps. Awesome, unique color palette, courtesy of Charles O. Finley.

I've got two beautiful kelly green and gold A's jerseys in my closet that I've barely worn for a couple years. Thanks John Fisher.

How long before A's ownership changes their colors to some combination of black, silver, and/or gold?

Vegas, baby!

A nice subtle update from Toledo - looks like a deeper yellow and the school name on the jersey

Previous for reference:

 

Another fun team to watch.

I love those Tuesday and Wednesday college football games.

It’s something to watch but seeing 500 people in the stands for those games makes me sad.

This guy has terrible taste. Just awful. I don't think any of those uni sets look bad at all but to put those top 5 is fucking stupid. It's like he's obsessed with weird fonts.

Agreed - I don't even know who that guy is.

The A's haven't always been in Oakland, so the nickname letter is a little more consistent. See also:  the present.

He sucks.

So does Tech not putting their black-red-black out there.  It has always been our best combo and they continue to fuck with it.

No one ever referred to the Redskins as the “Rs”. The As is used regularly instead of the Athletics.
