Is this the objectionable uniform? 

They look simple and clean to me other than the attaboy axes on the helmets.  I save my outrage for travesties like the gray on gray alternate uniforms of the Wake Forest/Luck game.

I always wondered why we do Axe stickers on the helmet. That's not a new thing, either; I vividly remember Andrew Luck rocking a helmet-ful of those bad boys. IIRC Harbaugh started the helmet sticker system. My question isn't why helmet stickers (I totally get that), but why use the Axe in particular? For instance, Michigan State does Block S stickers and famously Ohio State does the buckeye leaf. So why not a red Block S or a redwood tree (instead of the tree in the block S logo)? Anyone know?
