This was the only way to make it a surprise when we came on the field. If we wanted new pants completely, it would have had to been applied for with the league and would have been leaked/reported on, just like every other new uniform.

There are people out there obsessed with uniforms and dig for this stuff...then share it online.

We all knew about the gold pants rumor...but didn't know for sure when it would happen until it did.
