08:02 AM ET 04.18 | The Steelers will have a new look twice this season, a black-and-gold striped jersey that was unveiled Tuesday. Initial fan reaction on the Post-Gazette website was overwhelmingly negative. Running back Isaac Redman, who modeled the uniform for assembled media, had the first word from the players' perspective. "They went way back for this one," Redman said. "I don't know how everybody else is going to take it, but I really like the uniform." ... An indecisive, or, perhaps, politically correct linebacker LaMarr Woodley simply said "Hmmmmm ..." His fellow outside linebacker, James Harrison, was less charitable, tweeting: "There's a reason these jerseys were from [1934] ... it's 2012 now though, so send them back!"

Those jerseys look like part of a prison uniform. The Bungles should wear them.

Harrison will launch himself, helmet first, into the designer of these uniforms.

If there ever was a uniform that could actually detract from enjoying the game itself then this is it.

The Oregon Ducks and their mirrored helmets now have some company in the hard-to-look-at hall of fame.
