Great Fake Sports Team Uniforms of Cinema ...

There have been some fantastic sports movies made. Unfortunately, there have been many, many more horrific sports movies made. For the most part, my favorite sports movies have been based on real teams and players so the uniforms have been hardly worth mentioning. However, there are times when the uniforms are for fictional teams and those uniforms are worth noting and ranking.

For the purposes of this list I have decided to only include the originals and not the remakes. For instance, remakes of The Longest Yard, The Bad News Bears, and Rollerball are not included. These uniforms are noteworthy for the roles they played in making these movies memorable.

Go to imdb.com and check some of these out.

1 Bad News Bears - Bears
- A Little League team with a Bail Bonds sponsorship on the back. These are classic button up style uniforms and deserve praise for the comic touch of how they fit the kids.

2 Rollerball - Houston Energy
- These bright orange jerseys with black leather pants and fancy numbers stand out in a classic film from the 1970s.

3 Longest Yard - Mean Machine
- A great moment in American cinema is when the cons trot out wearing these very cool black jerseys.

4 Slapshot - Chiefs
- An actual minor league hockey team now wears these uniforms.

5 The Natural - NY Knights
- Classic old school baseball uniforms.

6 The Waterboy - SWCLSU
- Uniforms so ugly the XFL would have turned them down; brown, orange, and blue. The Cleveland Browns uniforms look stylish by comparison.

7 Dodgeball - Average Joe's
- A fake team uniform dream movie. The bright yellow jerseys of the Average Joe's lead the way.

8 The Fish that saved Pittsburgh - Pittsburgh Pisces
- Old school basketball uniforms in a film that the NBA did not license their uniforms to be used.

9 One on One - Western University
- They look sort of like the uniforms in Hoosiers style wise, with Western in bold type plainly across the chest.

10 Shaolin Soccer - Martial Arts Soccer Uniforms
- The yellow martial arts style uniforms are actually quite cool.

*** The order here is as much the order I thought of them as anything else ...
