Do Denver teams have some of the ugliest uniforms in pro sports? That’s what ESPN’s Paul Lukas thinks after he ranked the Mile High City at with three or more major pro sports teams.
In case you’re wondering, Boston claimed the top spot.
From Lukas:
You have to say this much about the Mile High City’s teams: They use some interesting colors, like orange (Broncos), purple (Rockies) and sky blue (Nuggets). Too bad those hues aren’t deployed to more tasteful effect.
The only cities to be ranked below Denver is Tampa Bay (19) and Atlanta (20).
Each team’s uniform was graded on a 1-10 scale, based on Lukas’ latest rankings. The Nuggets (5.5) and Rockies (4.5) were roughly about average among NBA and MLB teams, respectively. The Broncos (3) and Avalanche (2.5) were ranked near the bottom of their sports.
The Broncos were ranked below teams that include the Jets and the Browns. Seriously, according to Lukas, Denver’s unis are worst than the Browns.
What do you think? Did Denver get cheated in this ranking or are our cities’ sports uniforms really that ugly?
