Sounds like a flippin' clown suit.
I think the problem is there are fans who despise change and prefer the Burgundy and Whit mix with gold trim, and then there are the older folk (and I fall in this catagory) who have been around through the Burgundy and Gold.
I'm sure the white when added pissed off some people and they probably said similar things to what you have about the black.
I personally am a fan who would like to see a change. We've essentially had the same uni since 1980 when JG came in and it was redesigned. I'm proud of it, I'm glad it has lasted the test of time, but it would also be nice to see a more updated uni for a change. Your favorite Burgundy and White mix can always be used as the away game uni or alternate uni. <take note I'm not even asking for a change to the logo or helmet. but I will say I that I would like to see a reversal of colors on the "R" scripted helmet. Burgundy helmet with a Gold "R" on it.

Redskins' 80th Anniversary Kickoff, Tonight (http://www.redskins.com/news-and-events/article-1/Redskins-80th-Anniversary-Kickoff-Tonight/e7771e6c-bda5-42f5-84dd-ba58a1485d10?utm_source=twitterfeed&utm_medium=twitter)
The Redskins Blog | Sneak Peek At Anniversary Uniform? (http://blog.redskins.com/2012/05/10/sneak-peek-at-alternate-jersey/)
I'm slightly worried since it's Nike!
The uniforms will blend historical elements from the team's past, with a new-age look for the future.
UPDATE: You can watch full podium coverage of the event, from 5-6:30 p.m., on the Redskins' Facebook Ustream page. (https://www.facebook.com/redskins/app_196506863720166)

Personally I like the burgundy on burgundy or burgundy on gold, the white
Only looks good if it's all white

i don't like the all burgundy look. it would look better if the pants didn't have stripes, like the ravens in all black

With no stripes to break up those pants, the ravens players look like dancers in the black swan.
