The Yearly Uniform Change...

Beemnseven · 05-18-2006, 08:22 AM

Here's a link to the new Minnesota Viking uniforms:

True to recent form, if you look at the accompanying video of their uniform introduction show, there's about 6 different versions that the Vikings will wear this year.

I was wondering if the Redskins will ever change their uni's. It seems that some teams stay the same, like the Steelers, Raiders, and Cowboys. I believe they've had the same uniforms for at least 30 something years. Hopefully the Skins will stay with theirs for a long time to come. I like the white on white look though (but that's not really a change.)

i hope the skins stay the same with the exception of wearing the throwback once a season

The skins only real uni chages over the last few decades have been the throwbacks the one year, the different color pants on occasion and the minute chages in the logo. We have a classic and unique look that doesn't need changing.

Exactly, but i wouldnt mind seeing one alternate a year. I dont really care for the white on white, but burgundy on burgundy could be interesting, say vs. dallas. Or if they could get a black uniform somehow with like a black helmet and a script R on the helmet. And if they could somehow incorporate the burgundy and gold in the uniform. That would look pretty intimidating vs. dallas.

The Vikes ugly uniforms just got uglier.

The Skins have a classic look, I hope they never go with one of these Arena ball style of uniforms.

How about instead of the Redskins selling out their fantastic tradition you simply become a Raiders fan? Black uniforms are a dying fad anyway. Perhaps after we get another ring the rest of the NFL will consider integrating burgandy and gold into THEIR uniforms. The only uniform change that we needed has already occured. This year the Skins put the words "Randle El" on the back of a jersey. End of discussion.

It was just a suggestion. Why would i want to be a raiders fan? I have a black skins hat with a script R on it. The Redskins Official Online Store was
pushing those black jerseys towards the end of last season. And they actually looked pretty cool.

Our colors aren't black.

Same with dallas, detroit, philadelphia, and baltimore. All teams that have pushed black alternate jerseys. I was just suggesting an alternate uniform for like one game of the season particularly vs. dallas. Im not calling for a complete uniform makeover just a one game kind of deal. I love the white jerseys and burgundy pants.

the new vikings uniforms are whatever...

i like the white-on-white. i used it in madden even before we started using it during the season.

MTK · 05-18-2006, 11:11 AM

Yeah I'm pretty tired of seeing teams put black into their uniforms too.

hey gloon,welcome aboard

Things have gotten REALLY slow when we are discussing uniform colors. It's the sort of thing a group of wives might do while we're watching the game.

Black uniform! Are you nuts? What? Do you want them to wear that uniform on Halloween? How 'bout the Skins wearing Red & Green for Christmas. Come on Dirthog! Seriously... Burgundy and Gold! Absolutely rediculous!
