This would be even worse than what they're already doing. I think McCarthy had the concept of record for them (burgundy over gold, white over burgundy, double stripes throughout) but even if they just took the 2002 uniform and de-Indianed it, not in the manifest destiny way but in the good way, that'd be fine too. 9 ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

throwuascenario Posted October 19, 2022 Share Posted October 19, 2022 On 10/17/2022 at 9:02 PM, DCarp1231 said: Y’all really grasping at straws. The wife of *insert last name* Jr. retains the Jr portion as well because legally, like I said previously, that Jr is part of the husband’s legal name. She can choose to drop the “Jr” in less formal situations, but her name is *insert name* Jr through-and-through. This is not correct and the absurdities of thinking it is have already been pointed out. Suffixes are not part of your last name. The last name is passed down from generation to generation and don't get changed because two people in a row have the same name. There isn't just a permanent Jr. attached for all time. If he names is kid Jim, would the kid be Jim Slay Jr.? If that kid were to name his kid Jim as well, would that kid be Jim Slay Jr. Jr.? Obviously not to both, because Jr. is not part of the last name. The simplest argument for why any suffix shouldn't be on a jersey: The suffix IS part of your name but IS NOT part of your LAST name. The last name is what goes on the jersey. Boom, it doesn't belong. 1 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the Saints have the issue that they can't really use the pope as a mascot and what really is a saint and how should they look without pissing off everyone? http://media.zenfs.com/en/homerun/feed_manager_auto_publish_494/bc51a27c779bbb4dd28fdb774d555a9e Maybe this guy?

It was the apex, even if it was the most contemporary NFL thing ever (mid 80s no less!) to make a league wide mascot program. Given todays toy/collector culture, it's amazing they haven't brought the Huddles back, or at least licensed them to Funko or Super 7. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Starting Lineup roiling out NBA players this year I wouldn't be surprised to see the NFL/NFLPA jump on this next year too, if they haven't already. Agreed with the Huddles. I had a Washington and I believe the Bears Huddles at one time, but not the Browns because we ordered them out of Sears and they never had all of the teams at any time except for the cheap football uniforms. And the cutesy toy aesthetic translates pretty easily to them. They are a little overpriced in my opinion ($50) but I can see why people might want to pay that. They're wearing there actual shoes as well as the official uniforms. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
