Nike is reversing their logos on the sleeves to flow with the uniform. Works.

I don't get all the dislike for the jerseys. The Seahawks especially look cool. Ours looks... about the same as always.

In general the new uniforms look more refined and a bit sleeker. I like em.

is that a nike?[/quote]

Yep, you can tell by the NFL logo by itself. Reebok used the big "NFL Equipment" shield.


All teams are supposed to have a saying inside the collars.

Hope ours is either HTTR, "Braves on the Warpath" or "Fight for Old DC".




Probably will be something stupid since it's Nike.

The Browns would have been a better team to use "Keep Pounding" for...I have no clue what they're thinking using that for the Panthers. Did they poll they players or something?

That has meaning for Panthers fans, well maybe players, but anyone else would laugh, as we did.

Maybe ours will have a Sean Taylor reference?

How about "Sling it like Sammy"...for RG3's at least!


Rex probably had that stitched into his briefs already...he obviously lives by it.

Re: 2012 NFL Uniform Thread - Nike takes over
 
Although the gloves look cool with the team logo on the palms...it is quite a gimmick...certainly a branding guy's dream come true.....but from the perspective of a QB in a downpour, it may be more difficult to see the hands of the receivers.
I am sure teams with a brighter icon on the gloves may have an advantage when their QB's are trying to see the hands of their receivers.
I would have loved to see solid Gold Gloves...that would have stood out and been quite a good advantage

More stupid bullshit to fleece the fans with. I have one Skins cap to replace my older one that had its brim start to wear out and a jersey I bought from 2002. That is enough for me. You will get idiots that will buy all these new designs etc, and get thrown back a few hundred dollars. The NFL/ and the other corporate stooges will do anything to get the fans to dish out tons of dough for stuff they don't need. At the same time, the NFL's product suffers from mediocrity. You have 32 teams, and only a handful are really good teams. So much for parity!!!!! Yeah it is parity alright, but most of the teams suck. But oh what wonderful new uniforms they wear, we must part with $200 to see a bunch of morons play crappy football.

Good for you Dynamite. I got a personalized jersey for my 32nd B Day and it is in great shape. I don't mean to be a bastard, but these new uniforms, however cool looking they are, are nothing but a promotional gimmick to cover over the fact that the NFL really is starting to deteriorate in terms of play and competition. Not to mention getting gullible fans to part with cash they should save for the bad times ahead.

From what I heard on Espn, Nike put alot of effort in from direct feedback from players to make the uniforms better for actual play on the field. Voice of the players was motivation for the changes. Sure a couple minor color change or stitching here or there for the eye but it wasnt profit oriented. I mean I get your point of changing jerseys or having an alternative one or throwbacks to make a little cash...but every sport always does that and they wouldnt if fans wouldnt spend the cash but obviously they do.

It will one day.

Maybe it's because I live up in an upscale area but among a lot of young kids Lacrosse is become pretty popular. I know it's been popular up in the DMV area for a while but down here where there was no real base it's started to catch on to the point where some kids are actually quitting football to focus on LAX. Granted it's still a niche sport but nonetheless it's still catching on

Makes me wonder what might happen 30 or 40 years down the line. I mean could anyone have predicted back in the 50's and 60's that football would replace baseball as the top sport in America? Heck they barely had an established pro league at that point

Football is on top by far today and will be for a long time, now will it be moved aside by another sport years down the road ? Maybe but it's not anywhere close right now.. the NBA is a joke and I live where the most exciting team in the league plays, baseball is almost like the NHL but not quite as bad and of course the college games will never become bigger than the NFL.
