I'd rather talk about helmets than which stiff the Bucks will draft at 10.
I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

I think the Steelers, Cowboys and Raiders helmets are all awesome.

The Colts? Lulz.

Dolphins: Yo dawg, I heard you like decals for helmets, so we put a decal of a dolphin wearing a helmet on your helmet.

Saints got screwed.

I thought it was funny that the Redskins got a vote. I also think it's funny that they're still called the Redskins. Their logo looks like something you'd find on a messed-up 8 year old's charm bracelet. It's a picture of a trinket with a picture of a Native American on it.

This is my favorite Redskins helmet.

Edit: The fact I went to Waunakee and we had the FSU spears on our helmets may make me bias, but I just think it's a cool looking emblem.

BTW, I've always thought that the Chargers helmet sucks.

Less is more, IMO.

I dont really like Green Bay's unis, mainly because the color scheme. Bright yellow and green doesn't do it for me. I really wish we had real gold unis like ron wolf wanted back in the day. Real gold and green look great together. IMO, whn Notre dame wears their greens, they have the best unis in sports. I like the G, just hate the yellow. Gold looks better and fits the prestige of being called title town.

My top 5 would be
Chargers - Old school cool and simple
Vikings - Love the idea of the horns on the sides. unique. Only mascot that actually wore helmets.
Eagles - The wings are dope. I really liked when they added black
Seahawks- The lime green accent really makes it pop
Cincinatti - Again, simple and they resisted the urge to do something cheesy looking
Do it for Chuck

The FSU Redskins helmets are legit. Whenever I play the Skins in Madden, I make sure they have the FSU-like unis. Those are great.

I'm surprised the 49ers didn't get any votes, especially considering some of the other teams that did.
