Note: Below is the result of a well-executed April Fool’s joke. The XFL is not longer ahead of its time.
More and more NFL teams are taking advantage of the league’s rules on alternate uniforms to sell more jerseys to their fans. What Seattle Seahawk fan in their right mind would buy a lime green jersey with the word “Hasselbeck” on the back is beyond me; But someone inside the franchise obviously thought there was a market for it. Who knew: with ugly uniforms like this, the XFL was actually ahead of its time.
