    its existance has nothing to do with whether it appears ugly to you. It wasnt ugly by yesteryrears standards. They did what they did the way they could...and quite frankly, it might help the QB find his target quicker LOL

    Just because it wasn't "ugly" in 1934, doesn't mean it doesn't look like shit today. There's a reason those uniforms have never ONCE been worn by the Steelers since 1934.

    Meh. They will wear them for a couple games. It's a piece of their history and this is their 80th season. 1934 was their second year. I have no problem with them wearing them a couple times.

    Are they ugly? Yes. Are they the worst throwbacks ever? No. Are they among the 5 or 10 worst throwbacks ever? Probably. Will I buy one of these jerseys? No. Are they better than the current Seahawks uniforms? Possibly.

    Who cares?

    Greatest Heisman Winners in the NFL, according to the NFL network:
    #1 Barry Sanders
    #2 "Captain America" Roger Staubach
    #3 OJ Simpson
    #4 Paul Hornung
    #5 Charles Woodson
    #6 Tony Dorsett
    #7 Tim Tebow
    #8 Earl Campbell
    #9 Marcus Allen
    #10 Cam Newton

    They redeemed themselves with the Top 2 ... but Tebow? Newton? What a shit list.

    In their defense, everyone interviewed for the Tebow segment started laughing. "Tebow made our list because he did what most Heisman winners failed to do, made his college game work in the NFL." What a crap reason.

    That is a shame. How can those 2 be on such a list already, much less have Tebow ahead of Campbell and Allen?

    Personally, I would put Allen and Dorsett ahead of Woodson too. I'm also hard pressed to have Sanders at the top of the list. While I consider him the greatest back of all time, he didn't win anything and he doesn't hold any significant records.

    True ... but he was on the Lions. Even the greatest running back of all-time, if he's that, can't carry an entire loser team. The fact that he got them to the playoffs is saying something, and I genuinely believe he could have had the rushing record if he had deemed it important enough to continue playing for.

    Yes, he presumably could have. But, he didn't.

    the list says nothing about NFL success as a factor..it just says greatest Heisman winners in NFL. Tebow is statistically one of the greatest QBs in college and deserves to be somewhere on that list..not sure about Cam?
