Everything about those uniforms screams of 90's "trying to be cool" design, but it just looks awkward and wrong. Probably the 3rd worst jersey in team history ahead of the flaming snot donkey and the recent 3rd jersey Calgary word mark.

I like the flaming snot jersey better than those diagonal stripe travesties.

Anything beats flag patches and a black C. Yes that includes pedestal and horse head.

Black is back is good on an ACDC album, it is no good on a Flames jersey!

Damn just laughed out loud. Recall trolling the porno rentals in the video store years ago and seeing one titled "Black in back."

First of all, funniest post I've read in months. Kudos.

Secondly, I always got the lyrics wrong to the bolded song when I was a kid. When he says "Dirty deeds and they're done dirt cheap", I always thought he was saying "Thirty thieves and a Thunder Chief".

I still think 2006-07 had the best combo. Horseheads crests instead of those silly flags, none of that nonsense side striping etc.

Because you're a junky. Just admit it and then you can move to step 2.

Because the hot sun sometimes gives posters brain cramps - which can then be the source of great humour!
