hugevolsfan Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 It not as much to do with the 4 new teams as it is is the two new divisions that has caused the problem.I personally like the 32 team alignment & one of the reasons there is parity is that if you are a division winner you play all other division winners in the conference & your schedule is always tougher.Except if your the New England Patriots & for some reason always get the other best team on your home field each year. just kidding but Denver has traveled to NE the past two years which is one thing I do not understand.

BrianLion Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 ^ one time it was due to the scheduling of the division AFC West vs AFC East (which flip flops every 3 years). The other was just due to both teams finishing in the same place the year prior and that year's schedule dictated AFC W1 @ AFC E1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OnWis97 Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 One thing on the original post jumped out at me and that's a reminder of how awesome the 1980s Eagles helmet was.

I like the simplicity of this helmet much more than the current one.

spockEars7 Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 Looking at that alignment it almost makes sense to switch the chiefs and oilersAlmost. Houston would have been farther away from Denver and Oakland. The trip to/from San Diego would have been just a tad closer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the simplicity of this helmet much more than the current one.Absolutely. The new wings look so cartoony. I think the rest of the uniform is nearly perfect, but those wings... yeah. Maybe if the inside was just silver and no white. Or maybe silver with white outline and just drop the black (it's in the facemask so the helmet would still work with the uniform.) Or just silver and black. Just make the inside of the wing a solid color.Of course... I still advocate a silver helmet with green/black wing. Pair that with silver pants and I might have to masturbate right in the middle of the lower seating bowl the first time seeing it live.

infrared41 Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 I remember as a youth Monday Night Football really seemed larger than life. Then again, when one is 5 or 6 years old, heck even 10 years old, many things seemed larger than life to me. It felt like such an event back then, when ABC still had it. Now it feels like "just another football game" with ESPN doing it.Monday Night Football was an "event" back in the 70's and early 80's. It was "larger than life." Especially in the heyday of Frank Gifford, Don Meredith, and Howard Cosell. It was arguably the most popular show on television. Gifford, Cosell, and Meredith were practically rock stars. Hosting a MNF game back then was a major event for the team and host city. It was really something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jungle Jim Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 I've never understood the love for the Pittsburgh Steelers helmet. There's a logo on one side and not the other, for heaven's sake, and that logo is almost a complete knockoff of an existing corporate logo. Take away the six championships and the love for that helmet would not run nearly as deep. It's surely based more on team success than on aesthetics.

Mitch B Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 I always liked how Pittsburgh adapted the U.S. Steel logo. It's fitting for the Steelers. I do, however, think the organization can now afford to put the logo on both sides of the helmet. "Of course, that's just my opinion. I could be wrong."

BBTV Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 that turtle has a booty.That can't be real - how could it get inside the hole and how could it be strong enough to bend the shell?

Gothamite Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 I don't know if it's real, but if it is the turtle got stuck in it as a wee thing and the shell grew within it. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBTV Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 Didn't think of that - you're probably right. I might have thought the shell enough to break it as it grew but apparently not.
