Ferdinand Cesarano Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 Deion Sanders as a...Sorry, but I have to object right here. Deion Sanders doesn't really qualify, because he is not overwhelmingly associated with any one uniform. Even if seeing him in a Ravens uni feels a little unfamiliar, it cannot possibly impress as "wrong" in the same way that the sight of Cal Ripken in a non-Orioles jersey does.Jim Brown with an LA Raiders shirt on (though he never played for them...):Here is Jim Brown in a full LA Raiders uniform on the cover of Sports Illustrated in 1983:For the kiddies who might not remember this, Jim Brown was seriously considering a comeback in 1983, when he was 47, and the rumour was that Al Davis was going to give him a chance.(Brown never did go to any Raider training camp. But, if he had, it would have been very interesting to see what would have happened with the no. 32 jersey, which was worn by Marcus Allen. My guess: Allen, who is a bit more humble than Mr. Brown, would have ceded the jersey and worn a different number.)By the way, that was not the only Sports Illustrated cover which showed a football great in a uniform of a team he never played for.This was right before the never-to-be-played 1986 USFL season, which was intended to be the first one played in the fall. Jim Kelly had played for the Houston Gamblers, which merged with the New Jersey Generals. The stage was thus set for a QB battle between Kelly and the incumbent Doug Flutie (which Flutie, by virtue of his magical qualities, would surely have won).But, a few weeks later, the USFL went out of business, through no fault of its own (all fault lying with the goofball judge who failed to correctly instruct the jury), and so we never got to see Jim Kelly in this uniform. (In this uniform standing on the sidelines. Watching Flutie play.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eye Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 Ernie Davis with the Browns (only played a season, his rookie season, before his sad death.)Davis never actually played though. He was drafted by the Redskins, traded to the Browns and his number ended up being retired, but he never played a down in the NFL. With that said, how is Ernie Davis in the wrong uniform?

Gothamite Posted September 29, 2008 Share Posted September 29, 2008 Yeah, well, the NFL hasn't ever really pretended that its throwbacks were authentic, only that it's what the teams would wear today if they hadn't changed their uniform design.Unlike baseball, which sometimes uses period cuts and materials, the NFL just takes old designs and drops them on the modern template.

NFL throwbacks are inherently modern, so there doesn't seem to be any reason not to use the C patch (other than the arguments against C patches in general).
