These Uniforms Are Nothing But Ads

[Colby TS]

I ran across Casey Thompson’s Instagram page the other day and had no idea he was playing in Germany. The reason I’m posting this, though, is take a look at all the ads on those uniforms. They look like a NASCAR car with sponsor logos everywhere. There are even ads on the front of the helmets. It looks ridiculous. I sure hope college football never ends up going that route.

Its Football in Europe.  They need the sponsorships to stay afloat.

Makes complete sense, it just looks absolutely terrible. 😂

Good look at the future of the Monster Park Hotels Preparation H Big 12 conference uniforms.

Got to pay the salary. Going to happen eventually in order to pay the NIL bill.

Sports uniforms look like this across the world except for a) America and b) the very top tier soccer leagues in Europe. 

European hockey, skating billboards. European basketball, billboards. Volleyball, handball, motorsports (duh), cycling billboard billboard billboard.

Every single sport in Central/South America including soccer - billboard. Only the national teams are exempt, and that's only match uniforms. All training wear is sponsored and often multiple sponsors. 

In short - we have this thing about tradition and it's kept this at bay in revenue sports in the US.  Owners & advertisers are licking their chops and the money is going to be too good to ignore at some point.  Welcome to the billboards.
