If they go white helmets I really want to see them in matte. Gloss finish white helmets drive me crazy because they are always a shade or two darker than true white and against white jerseys they look more like pearl. Matte white helmets fix that issue and look gorgeous.

Entirely possible I’m reading too much into this video, but I couldn’t help but notice the lack of pewter here.

Does look like we're at least getting creamsicle throwbacks unless the first bit of footage was from the 70s. Still, going back for the future is an instant upgrade. 

 

EDIT: And if you stop around :04, you'll see a flash image of the pirate ship logo. 

Not only that, the mast is behind the back sail now. I wonder if there are other differences

Is that a new typeface at the end or one they’ve used before? I like it.

FWIW he was a massive fan of Seattle’s new uniforms too. Doesn’t mean that’s the direction they’re going but he really liked them and kept calling them cool and fast too.

Shameless plug if we’re talking Broncos, shout out to @ren69 for the awesome logo! I think an “icy” blue fits a team that plays in Denver really well.

Joe Ellis is on the record this offseason saying any changes to the Broncos Uniform would not occur until the team has a new permanent owner.

Personally I was never a fan of the lighter blue, looked fake or like a child’s toy or something. The orange being the primary is enough of a distinction from the Bears for me, but if they did change the shade of blue something like what the Giants wear could look sharp.

A sewn fanny on a prostitute?

 

 

Your Gramps might of had some issues.

Fanny means something different when speaking the Queen’s.

Watching the Guardians play today really has me hoping for an all silver alt for Atlanta with the new set. They played awful, but they looked great doing it.

I'm kind of scared to find out where you dug it out from.

It was one of my grandpa’s famous idioms. “That’s about as useful :censored: on a bull/a drum set for Anne Frank/a kaleidoscope for Hellen Keller/a football bat/a sewn fanny on a prostitute” etc...

They literally have to, it's the law. Holding the vote and then ignoring what the shareholders want is called "defrauding the shareholders" and is an extremely serious crime that has zero consequences because America doesn't prosecute white collar crimes.

They don’t actually hold real shares. That’s the whole point.

I'm not so sure about that... I'm cautiously optimistic. In general, after a team has screwed up their uniforms as bad as the Bucs and Browns did last time around in that over- modern direction, the next try is usually a turn on the opposite way.  I know some on this board think the Jaguars went too far towards the plain, but after that two tone helmet garbage, it really was what they needed to do.  My guess is Tampa and Cleveland are both going to do something similar, and I, for one, will not complain about anything being simple.  Not after the trash these two teams have been wearing for the past few years.

 

 

 

Is this an actual saying?

Sure is. You’re welcome for shedding light on it

It’s kind of cute Packers fans actually bought this schtick and think their “vote” matters about as much as a drum set for Anne Frank.

If you don’t think Mark Murphy and his board actually run things you’re pretty naíve.

You do know they aren’t actually owners and those certificates are pretty much worthless, right?

I’ve always thought if you rotate the ship to a profile view there would be three masts. That mast is in front of the sail because it’s the middle one, not the rear. 
 

though it’s a pretty funny allegory for the Bucs if you subscribe to the two mast theory, seeing as how Winston literally just had a 30 TD 30 INT season lol

Bucs and Falcons getting a revamp this year and I’d put money on the Panthers following suite next year, NFC South is about to look totally different.

Los and Las are literally “the” and even airports in Spanish speaking countries will list LA and Vegas in those orders. I’m actually surprised US airports do not.

I have no problem with a uniform Super Bowl logo, but I wish they’d go back to putting the stadium underneath it. That was a really cool touch. The Lombardi does not need to be in the logo.

Please please please be true. This is such a fun name. 
 

and we can call their fans Krakheads!

Watching the senior bowl, is this the new Nike template? It’s a huge step back from the clean Vapor Untouchable

Good look at the pants and socks for AFC Pro Bowl uniforms. 
 

I’m not going to lie, these are growing on me. The striped socks are a huge surprise.

I would love it if teams with grey masks started wearing grey gloves and shoes so people can stop complaining that they look out of place.

I kind of want to see this photoshopped now. Though I’m cool with black shoes and gray face masks just because it completes the old school look.

The Pro Bowl uniforms have stars on the top of their shoulders and it makes me hate them much less.

I’m with you that it looks matte... but why would Empower Retirement have a (potentially) yet to be released helmet? Or even a photo of a yet to be released helmet? 

Because they’re a sponsor. All these ads that are run are shot right now to be ready for the fall. It’s part of a process in LA called “pilot season” where they film pilot episodes for tv shows set to debut in the fall, but also commercials as well.

naw mate, look at the back of the helmet. all reflections / shadows are pretty sharp. theres nothing above the helmet to be reflected on the top

 

even if it were new, they wouldn't be putting this out there now

They didn’t. Empowerment retirement home did.

You guys are pretty much in denial. That’s as matte as it gets,

Still glossy IMO. You can see a reflection of the building on the back of the helmet. 

Lol Sammy you’re seeing ghosts. Matte finish, it’s the new helmet,
