[quote=Monkeydad;927978]Vinny Ceratto's idea of an offensive line?[/quote]

I didn't know he understood the concept of an "offensive line." I just assumed he thought if he put a quarterback and some skill players on the field they'd automatically score touchdowns.

[QUOTE=Alvin Walton;928698]The fake collars on the Saints uni's look stupid.[/QUOTE]

Yeah, they look worse in action than pictures I've seen. They looked like 1970s disco collars...and the black contrasts too much. Also, that washed-out gold does look like ballet panty hose. The Saints uniforms were completely ruined by Nike.


The Cardinals uniforms looked great.

Also, I noticed the Nike Swooshes are practically touching the numbers on the Saints. Sloppy.

So much for Nike being an upgrade to Reebok's blunders. They could redeem themselves if they can do the Colts shoulder stripes properly and consistently on all players, but I'm not expecting it.

I think the collar would look just as ridiculous if the black fabric went all the way around. Far too thick.

Anyone know where to get a real Ryan Kerrigan 80th throwback jersey? All the one's I see online look fake. I don’t mind paying the extra $$ for the real thing.

Are they even for sale yet?

I saw a ton of terrible fakes of that jersey over the weekend. It honestly is best to get the official jersey despite the cost... not bleed through of the color after the first wash (as was the case with the majority of the jerseys).

So someone said that the Skins have gone totally away from the burgundy pants this year? Is that right? So our home colors will be Burgundy tops on White pants and road will be White tops on Gold pants? Does anyone know for sure? I also know they will rotate in the throwbacks from the 30s look for a couple of home games as well I guess.

I've heard the same rumor. Guess we'll find out Thursday. Bills wore Blue at home last year and will probably wear it again this year.

[quote=Monkeydad;920181]Heard from someone with access to the official team style guide that gold pants are back for 2012, but they've dropped burgundy pants...so white or gold pants all year.

Thanks, I should have looked back. So realistically we should see either white on gold OR white on white for Thursday. Let's hope for the White on Gold. I like that look.

If history is a guide, they won't unveil the gold pants until the regular season.

I hate those uniforms. Like someone just said, looks like Oregon.


My favorite Baylor look is the traditional gold and green (ginormous picture warning):

Hey, in the past few years our team hasn't played well, at least they can look good losing! If they win 13 games this year they can wear all pink for all I care! Until then, they better look good coming out on the field, because once they take the field they have been stinking it up recently.

Look good, don't get hurt, move the ball, get on the plane and go home. that's my receipe for success tomorrow night.

Even if they are winning, I'd prefer they not wear pink outside of the month of October. We get made fun of enough nationally.

I'm a little sick of that. Once was cool since it's for a good cause, but every year?

Where's the light blue for prostate cancer?

It's just a money maker and attempt to market to women now. If everyone isn't "aware" of breast cancer by now, they're hopeless.

So all the Browns are doing are putting numbers on their helmet... Why even have a "throwback" at that point?

Monkeydad 08-08-2012 01:15 PM

Re: 2012 NFL Uniform Thread - Nike takes over
 
Helmet stripe is different, uniform stripes are slightly different.

They haven't changed much over their history, they can't just make something up.


Personally, I think they should do the helmet numbers full-time.



The new owner of the Browns is planning on making some uniform changes in the future...no word on how big. He just hinted at it in his first press conference.

Man the Jets and Steelers have ugly throwbacks. I have to say, my favorite throwback aside from ours, is either the Pats or the Lions.

Monkeydad 08-08-2012 01:21 PM

Re: 2012 NFL Uniform Thread - Nike takes over
 
Yeah, I LOVE the Pat Patriot uniforms. Flying Elvis was a terrible idea.

The Falcons, Rams, Bucs and Bills all look great too, along with us of course.

The Jets missed a big opportunity to bring back some great-looking Kelly Green uniforms...instead, the used the Titans identity that no one knew existed and no one likes seeing now.

I think I like the Colts but that "kicked in the back of the head" look is tough to get used to.

Monkeydad 08-08-2012 01:22 PM

Re: 2012 NFL Uniform Thread - Nike takes over
 
I bet the Packers are jealous of our leather helmets. They'd look great with their throwbacks too.

The Steelers' use of their current helmets...seriously...who approved that blunder?
