First I wasn't into the new training gear that the USMNT is wearing at the World Cup camp.
Now come leaks of Inter Milan's shirts for 2010/11. I don't know which is worse, the serpent on the away white shirt or the pixelated stripes on the blue & black home shirt?
Nike certainly failed when they came up with these designs.
USMNT Camp:
