I don't think anyone said that the uniforms lost the game. The home team gets to pick the colors, so it's about looking your best, and our best look at home has always been burgundy pants and white jerseys. Those were the colors for all three Super Bowl victories. Time to return to tradition.

I call bullshit on that just like I call bullshit on my superstition. We could win in 2 weeks with burgandy on burgandy just like we could with white on white. So long as our fans show up.

I liked last year's throwbacks, but we played like shit in them, so I don't want to see them. Same goes for these. White on white always makes me think of the Spurrier era and Patrick Ramsey staring blankly ahead as he threw another interception. I think we can just stick with the traditional unis for the time being.

Superstition says: Burn the jerseys.

I say: I really liked them. Keep them around.

Pretty much. I liked the uni's too and I'd like to see them worn again, but because they will forever be associated with this game we probably won't see them again for a while. I'm kinda superstitious when it comes to games, i.e. I wear my gear and things like that, but I don't believe it's bad luck when we lose a game while wearing a certain uni.

I second that....

B on B is horrid. Looks like a DII college team.

Dont like white on white or burg on burg. It looks too much like a high school uniform. Stick to the classic uniform combo, they look best.

I agree. The burgundy on burgundy looked too much like a college or high school team.

Burgundy on burgundy looked ridiculous.

cdskins26 · 11-04-2008, 11:47 AM

I don't think we'll be seeing them again after last night.

Skins fan 44 · 11-04-2008, 12:08 PM

We have played worse wearing white on white. If the want to wear them again wear them.
