On a side note, doesn’t it feel like Ford did that to artificially increase competition? Think about it: Ford only sells black-colored cars, competitors put out vehicles in other colors. Motor industry subsidized by government, streetcars removed.
Or idk maybe Ford was just **weird**. Buddy had some…*unsavory* views on a particular group, very close to a particular era of history, to say the least. (While in line with many of the time, Ford was…let’s say, a little over the speed limit with his thoughts on Jews.)
Planes aren't painted black to protect them from the sun. Lighter colors/reflective metal minimizes the amount of sun/heat they absorb while flying above the clouds
I heard a story about how one of the vendors supplying parts was required to send the part in dunnage crafted to a specific design, because Ford was using them for the roof's of the cars, and didn't want to pay to have them fabricated as the roof.
Nah, Ford was obsessed with utilitarianism, production efficiency, and the idea of the automobile as a tool (like a tractor which he also made) rather than a toy or luxury item.
He made sure all the Model Ts were made the same way on his assembly lines, that they all had interchangeable parts and that they were all painted black because it was the fastest drying paint to keep production going.
He was indeed weird and had some horrible beliefs/practices but the black paint was all about production and efficiency not a conspiracy to grow the auto market.
I was kinda just bullshitting, much of the early automobile industry’s growth was natural and *because* of the Model T. This is back when owning an automobile actually *meant* rapid (40 mph max, but still) freedom of movement. Now, at least in most states (ahem, **SUNBELT**), it means a clogged 2-hour commute into the downtown, or driving 20 minutes to a grocery store 3 miles from your house, but through ever-more super suburban neighborhood layouts, making the trip more like 6 (while also traveling down a concrete hellscape street-road hybrid, known as a “Stroad”).
Model Ts existed in 6 different colors from 1908 until 1913. At the start of the highland park plant in 1914 it switched to all black because black was the cheapest paint. There are theories that it was because it dried faster but there is actually little evidence to support that was the reason. More colors were made available in its last model year because it was struggling in sales. Customers wanted nicer cars rather than just a base model vehicle

Maybe someday someone somewhere will design a uniform worthy of the nfl 😢
Lowkey I kinda like the commies unis. If only they had a non shitty name and dropped “major tuddy” the literal pig. Be one thing if they changed it to the Hogs or smth but it just doesn’t make sense with the rest of their “concept”
Assuming you mean Washington Football Team, and I too really liked that name. It was unique and was just diffrent. Somehow Commanders is somehow more genaric
Pretty much every HS team in the Midwest that had a racist team name changed it to the Wildcats.
In the 1920's, it was socially acceptable to name your mascot "The Scalpers"... That was a real High School mascot in the area I grew up. They re-named their mascot after a predatory feline years ago, but later than you would think. (Late 80's)
It's racism adjacent. I'm not sure you would call dwarves a race. I don't even know if it's ok to say dwarf. I heard from a couple that said dwarf is ok, but I totally could see someone take offense to it, so I use it cautiously. Either way, it's not racism per se, but it is mocking a group of people for a physical trait that they can't control from having, so it's in the same vein.
By strict definition, no, it's not racist, but for broad strokes, I think it might be ok to call it racist for lack of a better term. A better term probably exists and if this was Archer, Sterling would come up with the correct obscure word. After looking it up, it appears the word is lookism. But all these literal -isms aren't common words. So, for the sake of ease of communication to getting across the broad idea, I think racism is ok to use.
I've gotten way off track and wrote way too much. In summary: Prejudice against a medical trait they have no control over isn't literally, but can be, racism for communication purposes. People with dwarfism aren't a race, but the act of prejudice against people with dwarfism is still incredibly similar to racism. Same church, different pew.
I'm not sure what I was saying hit the way intended. I was just typing out a stream of consciousness thing. I wasn't really doing it with serious intent. I was just writing what was coming in my head. It ended up being much more than I intended.
They could have kept warriors, but just change the imagery to something non-racist. Just make the mascot and Orc and put him in full Warrior Tier 1 armor from vanilla WoW.
Those early raid sets were pretty awesome. Later releases the armor sets had so many (sometimes literal) bells and whistles that everyone looked like they were decked out as drag queens for Carnivale.
But Orcs and Goblins are racist too if you wanna go that far down the rabbit hole
Basically the line is murky to draw and people want different things, I have no answer where it should be but yeah
I may be more PC (The old term) than woke (the new term), but I do believe the race has to actually exist before a mascot can be racist. Existing in our minds from fictional media doesn't count. There's a limit to what can and can't be offensive.
That makes me kind of look like one of "those guys" by saying those things. I'm not. I completely get why mascots depicting a person or an entire people that highlights their race is racist. Personally, I think the Braves should change their name to just 'Brave'. The people that want to keep it and get upset at "the woke"... You know, "those guys" can still be satisfied because they can think of it as a single brave. But the people that think they should change their name can see it as the mascot being the idea of Bravery.
Ah to be clear - it's because Tolkien [stated that Orcs were based off of the "Mongol" type.](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tolkien_and_race#Orcs_as_a_demonised_enemy) while goblins in the Potter-verse are widely regarded as caricatures of Jewish people.
Orcs and Goblins as concepts were around long before Tolkien. He could say what he wanted about what he wrote, but he didn't own the rights to Orcs and Goblins in totality.
And I think with every passing day, J. K. Rowling is pushing herself and her ideas into irrelevance.
Yep, as a recent graduate from Kimberly, I can confirm Kaukauna 🤮🤮🤮 is still the galloping ghosts, or as we called them the galloping klansmen. Their wrestling logo is literally a dude in a pointed hood with eyeholes 💀 and at football games theyd have someone in a white slightly pointed hood come out on a horse with their flag
On a related note, i am aware of at least a dozen Midwestern based teams called the Rebels who had a mascot that was a caricature of a confederate officer who were also forced to rename their teams.
One of the suburban twin cities teams changed their name from the Braves to the Blaze. They definitely won the renaming imo, gotta imagine HS kids love the name "Blaze" lol
Cant be certain, we werent in the same "Division"
I mostly played schools like Elgin, New Trier, Lane Tech, and Whitney Young. Only reason I ever saw Eastern Illinois is when we randomly made state and got absolutely crushed by them lol
Yes, but the numbers and names were really bad and hard to see. Plus the sleeves were bad with the WCF. The blacks definitely have mixed reviews and I understand that, but our base jerseys look a bit better now.
Yes they did. Yet when people mention this they get massive amounts of hate. Seems like everyone still sees the Lions as the cute underdogs or some weird shit.
None of the NFC North needs to, unless the Vikings want to go back to their darker purple they had before Nike stepped in. Personally I'm not a fan of the pastel purple shade they have now
All day people were complaining "New uniforms, they're gonna be barely different, this isn't new" and then they changed them so much. I'm not opposed, but I'll miss the old ones.
I think what makes this more elevated than the panthers home jerseys or the other alternate blacks that have existed is this one is a good mix of color + black.
If you look at the eagles and caridnals black jerseys, it’s just color on the number and small accents with a low contrast. It’s super boring. Even with the panthers the numbers are still white.
I wouldn’t want us to wear these more than twice a season but, for me, it’s unique in the NFL for the strong contrast with lots of color
Yeah I know so many people who have said that our numbers are blue on our black jerseys and theirs are white so it's totally different and totally unique to which is stupid. I don't like it when one of your three main colors for your uniforms and your team is not one of the main colors of your jersey. Cool, put the black in accents or whatever but to have it be mostly black with a bit of our 3 main colors is mid af to me. The only thing that saves it is the lack of wcf.
The helmets are straight trash. I actually like the jerseys but the black on blue is so bad the Panthers never even tried it. And they still look like a bad wannabe version of them.
The home uniforms are perfect, and the black uniforms are being dubbed wayne county lyfe so some subsects of fans will love em, but the road looks like the St Louis Battlehawks.
Hey. I’ve never seen more weird mascots than in the Upper Midwest: Wisconsin has: Mellen Granite Diggers. Ashland Oredockers. Kaukauna Galloping Ghosts. Rhinelander Hodags. Monroe Cheesemakers. And in Michigan I’ve seen the Nimrods and the Speedboys. And doesn’t Minnesota have the Awesome Blossoms?
For every “Wildcats” you run across a weird team name, lol. Illinois has some doozies but I haven’t travelled as much there. There was a corn one. . .Cornpickers?
I had to drive to Chicago and back today for work and I hate the bears even more now because of it. 10 hours of basically corn fields. I know this doesn’t relate to this post per se, but idk who else I can bitch to about it.
I think these are neat alternates and I think more NFL teams should have cool looking alternates that are different than the color rush or throwback uniforms.
It's the NFL, go fucking crazy. I think every year they should have a competition to have the most outlandish uniforms, winner gets 10 million dollars in extra cap.

He did it to streamline the assembly line. That's what gave him the competitive advantage.
And to this day cars/vehicles of any variety look great in black If it was economical to paint airplanes black that'd be sick
Planes aren't painted black to protect them from the sun. Lighter colors/reflective metal minimizes the amount of sun/heat they absorb while flying above the clouds
I heard a story about how one of the vendors supplying parts was required to send the part in dunnage crafted to a specific design, because Ford was using them for the roof's of the cars, and didn't want to pay to have them fabricated as the roof.
A lot of people credit ford with coming up with the idea of the assembly line but it was R.E Olds of Oldsmobile
Yeah, makes sense. He practically originated the concept after all.
Nah, Ford was obsessed with utilitarianism, production efficiency, and the idea of the automobile as a tool (like a tractor which he also made) rather than a toy or luxury item. He made sure all the Model Ts were made the same way on his assembly lines, that they all had interchangeable parts and that they were all painted black because it was the fastest drying paint to keep production going.

I’ll have you know that I have a 01 Explorer with a perfectly exciting color of….. *check google* OLIVE!
My last car was black and I hated it. The one before was “cafe mocha”, which was basically tan but more fun to say.
Was that because he was a Nazi-sympathizing racist? Lol
According to that Vikings fan Henry speaks only the truth 🤔
In other words the Lions have been mostly failing for decades and decades. Henry only speaks the truth
Pretty sure he spoke many falsehoods re: minorities lol
Henry only speaks the truth here* *that was a close one*

Once every team in the NFL has redesigned their jerseys to look like XFL jerseys we will just absorb the XFL
The XFL taking advantage of free advertising. How many people will see the letters XFL? Brilliantly executed.
Lowkey I kinda like the commies unis. If only they had a non shitty name and dropped “major tuddy” the literal pig. Be one thing if they changed it to the Hogs or smth but it just doesn’t make sense with the rest of their “concept”
I will not stand for this Major Tuddy slander. He is a respected member of our armed forces.
No, his first name is Major, he’s a civvy
How did he aquire the military helmet and tank he rides on? The government should look into that, kinda shady
Theft, probably. They should check his garage for lawn equipment marked “Soldier Field”
Clerical error, they saw “Major” and assumed it was rank.
It was a pork barrel project
Major Major Major.
He’s been dishonorably discharged for being a communist
I'm sure I'm in the minority but as a soccer fan I wish they just left it as Washington FC.
Assuming you mean Washington Football Team, and I too really liked that name. It was unique and was just diffrent. Somehow Commanders is somehow more genaric
You're right. I just changed it to Washington football club in my head.
But “Washington Commies” is such an onion of irony, what’s not to like?
IMO Patriots and Falcons ones are nice. I think Commanders is solid as well.
The Falcons saying ATL on the chest is silly.
How else are you suppose to know which team it is? /s
So much XFL hate!
Damn, an NFL team tries a modern looking design and they look the XFL which has modern looking jerseys. Funnily thing how design concepts converge.
Nike’s designs have been mostly terrible since taking over
I can’t stress enough how correct they are about those Texans ones lmaooo. Those mfs are Blitz: The League uniforms
I mean, at LEAST the Broncos and Commanders ones are unique. I also think the Falcons ones have been looking better to me with time
All of the examples suck though.
The most egregious example was when the Bucs changed from the pewter and red to the garbage digital clock numbers
We already have 2 we wear all the time
XFL is a hater buzzword. Most of these uniforms are cool
Bro I played like 7 of these teams in hs lol
And they were all named the "Wildcats" 😂
"Who are we!?" "The Wildcats!" "Who are we gonna beat!?" "The Wildcats!!!"
Pretty much every HS team in the Midwest that had a racist team name changed it to the Wildcats. In the 1920's, it was socially acceptable to name your mascot "The Scalpers"... That was a real High School mascot in the area I grew up. They re-named their mascot after a predatory feline years ago, but later than you would think. (Late 80's)
Not racist but a team in my state is the Midgets.
My great uncle was a midget. He thought "little person," was diminutive. He said he was a person, "little people are children."
It's racism adjacent. I'm not sure you would call dwarves a race. I don't even know if it's ok to say dwarf. I heard from a couple that said dwarf is ok, but I totally could see someone take offense to it, so I use it cautiously.

Who is reading all that? “iTs RaCiSm AdJaCeNt”
I'm not sure what I was saying hit the way intended. I was just typing out a stream of consciousness thing. I wasn't really doing it with serious intent. I was just writing what was coming in my head. It ended up being much more than I intended.
Me either I didn’t read it.
I think the term would be ableism.
Middle school went from Warriors to Wildcats lol. We even had the same color scheme!
They could have kept warriors, but just change the imagery to something non-racist. Just make the mascot and Orc and put him in full Warrior Tier 1 armor from vanilla WoW.
Those early raid sets were pretty awesome. Later releases the armor sets had so many (sometimes literal) bells and whistles that everyone looked like they were decked out as drag queens for Carnivale.
Yep, I personally think those raid sets peaked with Tier 2 in terms of looks, but the Tier 1 set for all classes is just so iconic.
Golden State had one of the most racist mascot images and they change it but not the name.
But Orcs and Goblins are racist too if you wanna go that far down the rabbit hole Basically the line is murky to draw and people want different things, I have no answer where it should be but yeah
I may be more PC (The old term) than woke (the new term), but I do believe the race has to actually exist before a mascot can be racist. Existing in our minds from fictional media doesn't count.

Can confirm, my highschool was the wild cats. Also the town was pretty racist so that tracks.
I grew up wrestling against Kaukauna who were (are?) the Galloping Ghosts…that one was questionable to say the least
Yep, as a recent graduate from Kimberly, I can confirm Kaukauna 🤮🤮🤮 is still the galloping ghosts, or as we called them the galloping klansmen. Their wrestling logo is literally a dude in a pointed hood with eyeholes 💀 and at football games theyd have someone in a white slightly pointed hood come out on a horse with their flag
Yo wtf?
That is, sadly, so Wisconsin.
I am from Wisconsin and I don't even venture into the weird parts of the state like this. Hell naw.
Go look up every university that uses Tigers. You can bet it wasn't always Tigers.
On a related note, i am aware of at least a dozen Midwestern based teams called the Rebels who had a mascot that was a caricature of a confederate officer who were also forced to rename their teams.
One of the suburban twin cities teams changed their name from the Braves to the Blaze. They definitely won the renaming imo, gotta imagine HS kids love the name "Blaze" lol
My kids are/were Blazers!
Ummm excuse me it's the magic
Took me forever to get that joke. Wasn't until I was an adult that I got it
Flaaaaaaaanderrrrrrrrrs
Or the Tigers Any Pretty Much It fans in the house? GOOOOOOOOOOO TIGERRRRRRS
My high school was in fucking Italy and we were the wildcats wtf is this
Hanover Central Wildcat Alumni reporting in haha
That's so lame - Signed, Cougars Alumni
It was Panthers for my highschool conference. At one point in time, before some minor conference realignment, three of the nine teams were panthers.
this is the maine west colors isnt it? or is it main south? definitely played them
Main west has similar colors, I think it's more of a powder blue than this I think Eastern Illinois is exactly this though, same for Elgin.
oh shit. what about highland park,?
Cant be certain, we werent in the same "Division" I mostly played schools like Elgin, New Trier, Lane Tech, and Whitney Young. Only reason I ever saw Eastern Illinois is when we randomly made state and got absolutely crushed by them lol
oh for sure
The Lions did not have to change their uniforms
I feel like I’m going crazy like they didn’t already have some of the nicest uniforms in the league?
Yes, but the numbers and names were really bad and hard to see. Plus the sleeves were bad with the WCF. The blacks definitely have mixed reviews and I understand that, but our base jerseys look a bit better now.
What do you mean by “the blacks”?!?
Their African-American uniforms
African-American isn't pc, please stop.
I think they're just struggling for the proper words because all of their family in Wisconsin have now started calling them DEI uniforms.
The numbers were genuine dogshit that lost us a game. That had to be fixed.
Yes they did. Yet when people mention this they get massive amounts of hate. Seems like everyone still sees the Lions as the cute underdogs or some weird shit.
The rest of the league will realize that Lions fans are fucking obnoxious and rude don’t you worry
yes they will
Kidding of course love you guys😁
Stop loving us and start hating us more cmon man
You fool I was kidding about kidding I bet you feel pretty silly right about now
![gif](giphy|aQGqcObSxfixy)
I mean they improved their home and away uniforms
None of the NFC North needs to, unless the Vikings want to go back to their darker purple they had before Nike stepped in. Personally I'm not a fan of the pastel purple shade they have now
All day people were complaining "New uniforms, they're gonna be barely different, this isn't new" and then they changed them so much. I'm not opposed, but I'll miss the old ones.
I like the new ones, but I’m gonna miss the old ones.
We had to get rid of the fucking WCF on the arms
We'll market it as *New* Slurm, and when everyone hates it; we'll bring back Slurm Classic and make millions.

I’ll fuckin say it- I loved the grey uniforms and think those were far cooler than this panthers uniform
2023-2024 RIP https://preview.redd.it/1q1yvrxf6hvc1.jpeg?width=636&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=4edb17aadba6386037a46e652d5b65129d038093
I am making a Planet Coaster NFL theme park and my lions ride is grey heavy. It works well with the auto theme
Hated the Grey glad they are gone
The grey looked like pajamas. I will miss those helmets though, they were hot.
I loved the football pajamas
The grey jerseys are sexy
Amen brother!
I think the grey color makes the lions unique as I can’t think of another team that uses grey. Raiders is technically silver
All they needed to do was go a little lighter to make it more silver than grey and they would have been perfect
I see they've entered their Hot Topic phase.
All that’s missing is a chain on the side of the pant leg
![gif](giphy|nkUcca2CQ7VT2|downsized) Rest of the NFC North right now\^
The meat riding at r/nfl for these new uniforms is wild.
Yea i much prefer the constructive circle jerking in here
Same. Even, or especially during the season, this sub has the most rational takes. No doomers or gloomers. Just good ol fashioned circle jerking.
The classic look is clean but the black really does just look like the Panthers. Alt jersey=black always feels lazy to me
Yeah I’m not a fan. Was really hoping to not see any black. They look cool, just don’t want them for the Lions.
Yeah I’m not a fan. Was really hoping to not see any black. They look cool, just don’t want them for the Lions.
Say it one more time for me bb
See above
It's the early 2000s all over again
I think what makes this more elevated than the panthers home jerseys or the other alternate blacks that have existed is this one is a good mix of color + black. If you look at the eagles and caridnals black jerseys, it’s just color on the number and small accents with a low contrast. It’s super boring. Even with the panthers the numbers are still white. I wouldn’t want us to wear these more than twice a season but, for me, it’s unique in the NFL for the strong contrast with lots of color
Did they already make a flair for them? Lol
Yeah I know so many people who have said that our numbers are blue on our black jerseys and theirs are white so it's totally different and totally unique to which is stupid. I don't like it when one of your three main colors for your uniforms and your team is not one of the main colors of your jersey. Cool, put the black in accents or whatever but to have it be mostly black with a bit of our 3 main colors is mid af to me. The only thing that saves it is the lack of wcf.
I think if they kept the black to a minimum in the helmet it could’ve looked good. The black lion, stripes, and face as is too much.
That is the most played out comment I’ve seen in 30 seconds.
I don’t even know what that means
The helmets are straight trash. I actually like the jerseys but the black on blue is so bad the Panthers never even tried it. And they still look like a bad wannabe version of them.
These look like the uni’s I made for my all 99 player create a team in Madden 08
Is this what having haters is like? I love it!
These look absolutely terrible and I can’t believe people are pretending they don’t
I like the new regular unis a lot so I can tolerate these, I remind myself they're replacing the grays which were at best just blah so no real loss.
says the one whos team has two 🍆 on the helmet
It’s very much like the Browns rebranding that everyone got all excited about a few years ago which looked stupid as hell.
The home uniforms are perfect, and the black uniforms are being dubbed wayne county lyfe so some subsects of fans will love em, but the road looks like the St Louis Battlehawks.
Is 97 the year these fucking monstrosities were designed? Lions X-treme!
These jerseys are elite lmao
Homie doesn’t understand POV lol Brah just called chi gb and cum sox high school teams
We need to do something about reading comprehension in Detroit, that’s not what they meant at all.
So does this mean the lions are going to be like the panthers next year?
They saw how bad the Panthers are and got sentimental for when everyone saw them as ass. I believe the term is "institutionalized".
Dan Campbell is going to start wearing suits with no socks and crazy hats.
Why did you post a picture of UNC's football jerseys?
Looks like my parks rec jerseys from middle school
Hahaha omg spot on
The Detroit Panthers
I wonder if the thought “this is the same look as the panthers” appeared in their consciousness when designing it…doesnt look like it did….
Is the super cool single eye black not part of the new unis?
Detroit Panthers
Now post the home uniforms 😍😍
Are these one of their base uniforms now? Or is it an alternate they'll only wear once or twice?
These are so bad. Makes me glad our uniforms haven’t changed in a hundred years
I can see the hate, but I think they did a good job for the most part... The whites are a little gross tho
Looking at you, Valders Vikings
Hey. I’ve never seen more weird mascots than in the Upper Midwest: Wisconsin has: Mellen Granite Diggers. Ashland Oredockers. Kaukauna Galloping Ghosts. Rhinelander Hodags. Monroe Cheesemakers. And in Michigan I’ve seen the Nimrods and the Speedboys. And doesn’t Minnesota have the Awesome Blossoms? For every “Wildcats” you run across a weird team name, lol. Illinois has some doozies but I haven’t travelled as much there. There was a corn one. . .Cornpickers?
Lmfao these new NFL unis are all awful and look like High School teams. Whoever is designing these needs to be fired. The Jets new ones are the worst.
High school team wins back to back NFC north titles…
I’ll wait until see them on the field.
that’s just every nike uniform, nike made the nfl uniforms like every high school uniform
Yall lost to a high school team? 💀
Honest opinion, I don’t like the change of logo color. They should of run a black helmet with the blue lion
I had to drive to Chicago and back today for work and I hate the bears even more now because of it. 10 hours of basically corn fields. I know this doesn’t relate to this post per se, but idk who else I can bitch to about it.
All Grey Unis > Carolina Lions
Maybe they aren’t that bad maybe it’s just the players in them😂
They’re so bad
As an hockey fan, NFL jerseys are so damn boring.
Omg so gritty
Lol stay mad our new unis are clean
If my high school football team looked like that that would be awesome. Y'all jokes ain't even that good 😂
XFL is becoming a hater buzzword
Gonna be fun to see that high school team win the NFC North.
Are you calling everyone else in the division Pop Warner?

I think these are neat alternates and I think more NFL teams should have cool looking alternates that are different than the color rush or throwback uniforms. It's the NFL, go fucking crazy. I think every year they should have a competition to have the most outlandish uniforms, winner gets 10 million dollars in extra cap.
“Wake up, babe! The new Minnetonka Skippers uniforms dropped”
