You mean yellow, right, and I like that idea. I'm guessing some here would argue that it looks too much like our Green Bay Packers scripted "R" helmet uni's, for which no one seems to like but me.

It's gold. It's organic gold (like goldenrod) rather than metallic gold.

I remember his name now. Schmitt was the guy who bashed his own head open with his own helmet. I posted his Youtube video in the Super Happy Fun Thread.

He'll fit in fine in Philly.

He's been out of WVU for a few years now.

Being a WVU guy, i would love to have Schmidt here in Washington. He is one bad ass dude. He could fill in / take Sellers job with ease. Plus he plays special teams like a crazed monster. They were selling those t-shirts in seattle after he busted his head open during team introductions. "get Schmidt faced" with his bloody mug on them. pretty cool.

^ Ha, sounds like it could be fun...a modern-day Riggo.

Lets pull another in-division trade with Philly.

AH for Schmitt and picks.

I voted stay, even though I really wish they would use more of a "Gold" metalic color. I see Tampa using Pewter instead of dark grey and it looks good. Dallas and Detroit use Silver, the Rams went back to Gold vs. Yellow, the Patriots use silver, the 49ers would be the only club even close to using "Gold" besides the Rams. I'd like to see us use the colors we are actually named for.... Burgundy and Gold.

But the uni's looked good otherwise.

^ Yet you have the helmet that goes with those pants in your avatar. :D

Wiki has a whole page about gold colors, there are of course lots of variations, and the pants certainly fall in the broad spectrum:

Gold (color) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gold_%28color%29)

seems a bit of a nitpicky argument to say that it has to be one specific shade of gold. I like the idea of going to closer to burgundy and gold (whatever shade) than white, which to me was as bad as black uniforms. Just use our colors

from the same wiki article:

Fans of the National Football League will note the Pittsburgh Steelers, Washington Redskins, and Green Bay Packers as having gold as a color. The gold they use, however, is a distinctly more yellow color (akin to the non-metallic web color version) than the traditional "old gold" used by the New Orleans Saints, San Francisco 49ers, and Saint Louis Rams. In both cases, the color is referred to as "gold".

I'd much rather see them wear the Burgundy jerseys with white pants rather than these icky mustard yellow pants. They should go back to the gold pants like they wore in the mid-60s. As long as they never, never wear those all burgundy uniforms from last year.
