it'd be funny if he wears a leftover Russel Wilson's #3 jersey while the rest of the team wears the new ones.

The side panels were a Nike creation.

If a team has nine looks, then it doesn’t have two. While overall each look seems (based on the 1 minute I spent looking) fine, it’ll be a mess trying to instantly identify them in short clips. also… as others have pointed out, THE CHARGERS SLEEVES.

When I was like 13 in 1990ish, doing pencil-and-paper concepts for a fictitious league, my New York team (I think they were the Brigade for some reason) looked almost exactly like that (and I obviously didn't have the ability to research any throwbacks unless they were in the NFL History books that I'd borrow from the school library.). Glad to see that it could soon become a real thing!

I always thought that the front was pointed so that it didn't "block" the front of the horse head. The cyber-horse logo is too long to have to compete with a stripe for space. Really hoping the stupid-ass triangles gimmick thing is a troll job by someone and not something we're actually going to see.

Paul's piece. But that part was interesting for two reasons. 1. the timing. He said 2015 or 2016, which kindasorta lines up with when they started lobbying for the kelly green helmet to "test" a return to the color by first using it as an alt. The story says that Lurie got cold feet and thought he should just keep the current uniform, which validates his desire to "test" it first. 2. after he nixed the redesign, he asked for "just give me some cool pants stripes, something that's never been done" (paraphrasing.). The proposals that were shown in the article were rather tame, but Lurie just swiped left. As for a rumor that he'd "never change", that's simply not true. He's flat out said that he'd consider it. But they're very conservative and brand conscious and aren't going to make any decision that's not very well thought out (note - I didn't say well executed, just well thought out.) *the wordmark fiasco would seem to run contrary to what I just said, since it wasn't timed right to get on the uniform in time, though we don't know the fully story there (like, maybe they were told it was minor enough to not require 2 years, or something like that.)

Given that the last times teams went "out there" we ended up with the Titans and Falcons, I'll gladly take throwbacks, even if that's not usually my preference.

I'm still devastated that they didn't use my concept, at least for a mascot:

In some cases it could be just as bad for the fan base and former-host-city. Our city-wage tax is 4%, so even if the athletes don't live in the city, they're still paying that for practicing and playing here. That's not nothing (plus the revenue the city gets for fan-related things.). Also in areas so dependent on transit, a move to the suburbs could potentially make games inaccessible (or at least much more difficult to access) for people. I just think if those cities need domes, then they should be forced open for the majority of the time, unless conditions are such that the athletes are at heightened risk for injury. Build them in a way that the fans are mostly protected from rain, and keep them open. Every mid-atlantic and northeast baseball stadium should be like Safeco, no exceptions. None. Not one. The "umbrella" concept needs to be implemented yesterday.

LOL Brady Anderson / Rafael Palmeiro. There was a lot of juice in that lineup. I'd love some stat guru to find if there's ever been a one-year-wonder season like Anderson had, which was just coincidentally during the juice era. I forget exactly what a standard deviation is, but that season had to be multiple SDs from his norm.

You're right about three of those things.

and edibles. 5280 types of edibles were consumed in the making of that stripe.

All the terms? Not even close. You're half-assing getting banned. There's plenty more rules you could break if you put your mind to it.

Please don't ban this guy. I have questions. First - why now? Was there a pre-planned expiration date that you set for this account, and April 19 was "self destruct" date? Second - while I know you can't say what your next name will be, will that account also have a pre-determined shelf life? If so, would it also be April 19th? I don't know about anyone else, but I'd love for there to be a year-long guessing game leading up to April 19th, where we patiently wait to see who it is. Third - if your going to get yourself banned, why not go out in a blaze of glory? Say some seriously-offensive stuff, rip into someone, get hyper political, or post dick picks. Something better than this. Make it count.

Since I guess we're all having fun here, waiting for you to be banned, here's a true story. A long-ass time ago in college, I was drunk AF at like 4AM and had to go to the bathroom, which was located a the complete opposite wing of the dorm from where my room was. Whilst walking, wearing nothing but mesh shorts, I sneezed, and some poo came out and hit the floor - miraculously not getting on my shorts. Clean shot. Anyway, some girl who must have hooked up with a guy just happened to also be in the hallway (I didn't know until after the "incident"), and she ran away. A week or so later, some people I didn't know started calling me "poop pants", and I found out it was because she told them. But the thing was - no poop was in my pants! Shoulda called me "poopy floor" or something.

Just so we're clear - is it just my ass that you think is fat, or are you calling me obese in general? I'm curious what would give you that impression. Maybe my posting style gives off some high BMI vibes.

These stupid undershirts, man. People design a uniform, and nobody sees it the way it was intended because even at the unveilings, people are wearing stupid-ass dummy shirts that create (at best) a cummerbund effect, and at worst, a "fat kid in t-shirt at the pool" effect.

Is it an "exclusive" look if literally the whole internet has seen them?

I'd say life is rougher for the family of the woman that was killed. Not gonna feel sorry for a guy that has two complete idiots for siblings that intentionally made choices that had consequences.

If you're saying Starter wasn't their manufacturer when the Cunningham jersey was made, that's true. Any of the licensees could make replicas for any team. And even the ones that were replicas of the on-field jersey (not fashion jerseys) varied by maker. For example, the Eagles kelly greens were always full mesh. But the Wilson replicas were a brighter green with dazzle-ish shoulders. Not even close to the Russell replicas (better, IMO.)

While I'm not in the XII, these are collectively the POTD. Well done. No side panels? Maybe it looks that way because they're transparent. This is not true. Russel was their brand from at least late '80s - 1996. Then they were Starter for a couple of years, then Puma, before Reebok took over everything.

I agree (though I wish they had no black uni at all). In fact, they sold so many black fashion jerseys in the early ‘90s that there’s a bit of a Mandela effect where some eagles fans of the right age will swear they occasionally wore black jerseys. A black jersey with black helmet with the throwback wings, and silver pants, would be miles bettter than their current black crap. of course they shouldn’t have a black jersey period, but if they must, a fauxback (fauxblack?) is the way to go.

Unrelated to these unveilings, this article is among the most insightful ever of the interaction between a team (Jets), league (NFL), and supplier (Nike.). It costs $5 (but you would get the other two as well) which is well worth it for legitimate journalism rather than reading nonsense by nobodies on Reddit. Everyone's entitled to opinions, but reading these things would go a long way to making those "informed opinions", rather than spouting off stuff like people did about certain things in 2021 when everyone was a medical expert. You will see the NFL's concept logos and "stories", which I think everyone here would love. *I have no affiliation with PL or UW, just think it's one of the best interviews i've ever read in 20 years (JFC... it's been 20!) of being in the uni-community, and even longer of following UW.
