I'm all for uni changes. I'd like to see several combo's, not just a home uni, a road uni. Gimmie a home, a road, an all white, red top gold bottom, white/gold, all red maybe, throwback once a year, and the AWESOME SPEAR ON THE HELMET UNIFORM once a year. I don't care if we won several games wearing white/white last year, we've won superbowls with other uniforms on.

If they want to travel the supersition road, lets wear white/white until we lose a game and then bring some color...if they do that I'd prefer that we wear white on white until next season though...

PLEASE, for one game a year wear the DAMN BURG/GOLD WITH THE SPEARS ON THE HELMETS, best looking uniform i've seen on the redskins, one of the best in the history of the NFL.

hell with teh stupid spear jersey...

we should wear orange and green

To hell with teh stupid spear jersey? Is it because of teh seminoles that you hate it so much? Perhaps a spear jersey hurt your feelings, is that why teh spear jersey needs to go to hell? I thought most folks liked teh spear jersey, I didn't mean to bring up bad memories, sorry.

Orange and green, hmm...let me think about it...i'm seeing it now...yeah...um, nope, I don't get it. Why would teh redskins wear teh dolphins uniforms? I honestly can't think of a single reason for it, what is the strategy or reason behind wearing teh Miami Dolphin Uni's? Seems very silly to me.

Um, wow I think SkinsNCanes was just joking, and he suggested Orange and Green because he is a fan of the Hurricanes, it is like me suggesting the Skins should wear Blue and Orange because I am a Virginia fan. I do not really think he thinks the spear jersey is "stupid" nor was a direct attack on you.

never liked the spear unis, its the seminoles uniform, not ours (not for decades). looks foreign on us.

the whites on whites were great when we needed a break, lets bring it back to the Gibbs era with the burgundy pants and save the whites for another time we need a (regular season) break.

Maybe....or maybe he was talking about the FAMU (Florida A&M baby!), coached by none other than former Skins D-Line coach and Andre's dad, Rubin Carter! Their green and orange unis would look great on the Skins

Meant as a joke, sorry it came across wrong

Whoa whoa whoa, before this gets ugly/uglier, my post was a joke. I wasn't upset, didn't get offended, and it wasn't a attack/counter attack for what cane/skin posted. Since I never actually said anything to him (I only questioned why he didn't like the spear jersey and made my self "look dumb" by not knowing the dolphins colors) I thought folks would see I didn't actually take offense.

Just think if I had said the types of things cane/skins did in my post as well, lol, ya'll would have me kicked outta here for sure. Saying his uni should "go to hell" and that his idea was stoopid like he said about mine...well...lol, this would be real ugly/uglier.

I'm sorry it didn't come across as a joke, I went back and read it just now and am sorry I wasn't clear about that. I shoulda made my post clear i guess that it was meant to be funny, the wife would say I am funny on rare occasions, so folks wouldn't take offense to it. I just came back to the site to see what was new and found out i'm a touchy little twit because of that post, so I wanted to clear that up.

***I know he meant the U of Miami, not the dolphins. Between his name, the fact Portis is the scouting director for souther florida, the fact up to 15% of our 53 roster could be former U players, and that the Dolphins don't use those colors I thought it would be clear I was joking. I guess the playing dumb thing in that paragraph just came across as me being dumb, sorry.***

And I only wrote teh because thats how cane/skins wrote it in his post where he quoted/responded to me. It was hard to remember to spell it that way when I typed that. Doing that was meant to be part of the humor as well, not meant to piss you off. Alright, I better post this before everyone stops by to rip me a new one....hell, much longer and ya'll might have me banned from the site, lol.

Re: Anyone else think it's time for a uniform change?

O, and I actually do like the spear uni's. I don't think it screams redskins, but I think it looks good and I like the throwback aspect. It think it doesn't look as foreign as the all whites do, we're burgundy and gold, not white with a wee little bit of red trim.

I liked the white at first for the change and uniqueness...everyone in the league was putting on black and we went white...but now its just a tired uniform that looks like a nascar team that isn't good enough to get a sponser or something. Or some 5th grader won a competition and got to choose what color they would dye the uniforms for the upcoming game, and he said clear.

yeah i agree with that, they're great as a change of pace, our 'black unis', but not our standard uni.

Honestly, I could go back to the 02' uniforms in a heartbeat. That might settle down the native americans who are pissed off at us too.

These white on white unis look too high school and I have never liked them. Burg on burg is also a high school look. Just go back to white jersey & burg pants at home and burg jersey & white pants on the road.

And of course Madden is an excellent gauge for how the team will perform in real life.

Personally, I think the Redskins should try the "DC Cheesehead" uniforms again... it might look better with all the new equipment they have out now... at least for a game or two...
