What is the worst sports uniform of all time?

Some ideas that come to mind are: the Houston Astros rainbow popsicle, San Diego Padres brown and yellow, Pittsburgh Pirates all yellow with billed pillbox hats from the 70s (great teams can have horrible uniforms), Chicago White Sox in shorts, and just about any uniform of a minor league football team, whether it’s XFL, USFL, WLAF, etc. (What’s the deal with the L.A. Extreme logo? It looks like a cross between a swastika and a ninja star. And why do so many minor league football teams wear outrageous colors like neon green?)
