JQK Posted November 27, 2003 Share Posted November 27, 2003 God man.. the Lions... beauty in simplicity. Those throwbacks will always look good. And hats off to the Packers (with the uniforms anyways). Given that their "Throwback" wasn't much different from their current uniforms, but they added the gray facemask and had the thinner pants stripe. good job.The Dolphins look good. I always liked their older Aqua color compared to the newer Aqua. Dallas.... ugh..... Stay Tuned Sports Podcast Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TruColor Posted November 27, 2003 Share Posted November 27, 2003 I thought a major aspect of the Packers' throwback was the use of non-spandex material for the pants. Like in the old days.Someone else might be able to clarify this, but I don't THINK that the Packers started putting trim on the collar until more recently. That would be the only mistake I could really see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STL FANATIC Posted November 27, 2003 Author Share Posted November 27, 2003 According to Canis' site, the Packers did indeed have striping on the collar in of the white's in the 60s. JUSTIN STRIEBEL | PORTFOLIO | RESUME | CONTACT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clyon81 Posted November 28, 2003 Share Posted November 28, 2003 Did the lions every have black face masks before this season??? Play RBI Baseball 2K9 @ http://league.rbicentral.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sterling84 Posted November 28, 2003 Share Posted November 28, 2003 I thought it was very interesting and a nice touch for Miami to have the embroidery on the TV numbers cut sloppily on purpose. No white visible in enclosed areas like 8s and 0s and in particular the use of a square orange twill bg on the 9s like on Fiedler.I dont have a pic of this but Im sure someone else noticed and can back me up.Happy Turkey Day all!

CZzyzx41 Posted November 28, 2003 Share Posted November 28, 2003 We've got to get the Bucs on for Thanksgiving. I'd love to see if they play along or go sour-puss and perhaps just wear those god-awful platinum jerseys they've teased (or threatened) us with for so long.AND I think the Patriots also should play...so...Cowboys-Patriots, Lions-Buccaneers.HARDY HAR HAR! -DanielCheck Out My Podcast!

sj32 Posted November 28, 2003 Share Posted November 28, 2003 I have a gripe with the Packers and Dolphins throwbacks and that is that they put the numbers on the shoulders when they should have been on the sleeves. The way the uniforms are cut these days, I know it makes more sense to put the numbers on the shoulders, but still I have to point it out. Another inaccuracy that Sterling brought up is the TV numbers on the Dolphins' jerseys. That style was used in 1971 and '72, but not in 1973 (at which time they changed from sewn-on numbers to screen-printed). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fusebazell Posted November 28, 2003 Share Posted November 28, 2003 I think the Lions should permanetly switch to the jerseys they wear on Thanksgiving thats the only time they ever manage to win. What is it 9 wins in 3 years? :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1994Patriots Posted November 28, 2003 Share Posted November 28, 2003 Sterling, I noticed the "sloppy" TV numbers on the Dolphins...annoying at first, but if it's supposed to be like tat to date back to '73, then it works. Once again, loved all the throwbacks on Thanksgiving, still one of the best ideas the NFL has had in a long time.BTW, anyone know if the Pats are wearing throwbacks this weekend vs. the Colts? Check the banner at patriots.com...one would be led to believe they'll be wearing throwbacks this weekend. Anyone know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger Clemente Posted November 28, 2003 Share Posted November 28, 2003 Those Lions uniforms SUCK! They are wicked wicked boring. Gimme a blue T-shirt and put on a number, and we're done. There's simple and then there's laziness. This falls into the latter.--Roger "Time?" Clemente. Follow me on Twitter if you care: @Animal_Clans.My opinion may or may not be the same as yours. The choice is up to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STL FANATIC Posted November 28, 2003 Author Share Posted November 28, 2003 Speaking of Throwbacks where did yo get taht old Blues add St. Louis?http://www.stlouisblues.com/billboards/billboards_0304.htmlIt's one of the Billboards for the Blues this year. It's part of their awesome marketing scheme this year. In the book Note By Note it has many old ads, and the Blues did a great job making these new ones really retro.

No white visible in enclosed areas like 8s and 0s and in particular the use of a square orange twill bg on the 9s like on Fiedler.i was wondering what happened there... it looked so odd, was that historical-ly correct?just glad that Dallas lost, so when we bump down the Eagles this weekend, my Panthers will be back atop the food chain. haha.

Chazberg Posted November 28, 2003 Share Posted November 28, 2003 I was also disappointed to see the Lions with the black facemasks as someone else mentioned, I know they never had those before this year. I think my favorite part of the throwbacks was the socks. The ones Green Bay wore were great and I wish they'd make those their regular socks. Miami's were awesome too, so mouch orange...more teams today need striped socks. charles-noerenberg.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
