But of course, nothing exists in a vacuum in the copycat league, and the NFL's now lousy with powder blue.

Easy to overreact to the shiny new object there in Nashville, but I'm going to still ride with the Chargers as my favorite powder blue ensemble.

But the Carolina Panthers also wear a very similar shade of blue.

And the Dolphins wear aqua.

And the Jags wear teal.

And 15 of 32 teams now wear a jersey that's some shade of blue.

Well, the Cowboys prefer their white jersey still, I think, but less and less over the last decade.

And I'm worried on behalf of the players, don't you know?

Back in the 80s, Bills QB Joe Ferguson couldn't distinguish his own teammates from AFC East defenders because four of the five teams wore white helmets, so they switched them to red.

And now with more and more matchups of home and home uniforms, I'm worried the NFL's aesthetics are falling back into SEC territory.

Six out of 16 SEC schools, Bama, A&M, Oklahoma, Arkansas, South Carolina, and Mississippi State wear maroon and white.

Did you know that?

Yeah, of course you did, because if you watched them at all, it looks like a scrimmage out there.

I'm keeping my eye on you too, Big Ten, with five of your teams wearing red and white.

Okay, it still means more or maroons more in the SEC.

What I'm getting at is it's too much, or is the bad kid or bad...

guy or whatever he was in The Incredibles put it, when everyone's super, no one is.

And the same goes for Powder Blue.

Meantime, I'm getting hot under the collar here.

It's April, not much madness left.
