Bad Uni Alert: The Grizzlies of Groningen
Oh, where would we be without those crazy Europeans?
You can always count on our Euro friends for delicious food, catchy pop tunes, soccer riots, softcore porn under the guise of 'art', and bad sports uniforms.
From the fine nation of The Netherlands, we have the Grizzlies of Groningen. You'd expect something ferocious, right?
Instead, we get some d00d's tie-dyed acid trip.
Those Milwaukee Admirals only had to put up with the Hawaiian shirts for one day. The Grizzlies? They wear these every single game!!! Poor bastards! And what's with the cityscape?

Its a clever tactical maneuver...
If the other team is laughing their asses off, its hard for them to - you know - score or do defense :p
I`m sure Dallas had the same idea with their infamous Moo-terus third jersey... >.<

It doesn't hurt them in the least at all. They're dominating the Dutch 2nd level league, which is purely amateuristic. Groningen which has some abition of joining the top league has go a couple of imports which helps them immensely.
