rfraser85 Posted July 24 Share Posted July 24 35 minutes ago, nuordr said: I would've preferred a green facemask like my concept: Not bad for a whiteout, but it needs a couple things. First, I would reverse the helmet stripe to green/gold/green to match the rest of the stripes. The other thing is it could use either dark green socks or white socks with the striping pattern used on the rest of the uniform. But to be fair, the players would probably just wear solid whites on their own and replicate what you have here. The funny thing is the Packers would have the perfect storytelling element with dark green. They could say that represents the evergreen trees in winter. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They went white over white for all of 2001, 2002, and 2003 (save one game). Then they went back to it for a bunch of games in 2006 (that Hester pick is from his legendary game against the Rams in St. Louis). Back to navy pants in 2007 but then went all white for the entirety of 2008. They seemed poised to continue that trend in 2009... and then this happened: They haven't worn that look since and indicators are that ownership won't permit it.

Carolingian Steamroller Posted July 24 Share Posted July 24 Just now, Sec19Row53 said: And 90s, 80s, 70s ... Sure. But they went white over blue exclusively from 1984 to 1999 except for two games in 1995. So from the perspective of most Bears Gen X and Millennial fans white over white was really rare. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The white-on-white Bears road looks is my fave. Wish they'd stuck with it, but where did you see it wasn't allowed? 1 Quote Quote "You are nothing more than a small cancer on this message board.

Michael Bolton Posted July 24 Share Posted July 24 5 hours ago, MCM0313 said: Does anyone know the story behind the Cardinals’ black helmets in the PC version of Madden ‘08? (Not the current ones.) Or the Raiders’ silver jerseys from the same game? Some teams from that era had "fashion" jerseys that never hit the field but were in Madden (the Bucs had a very dumb black one.) So maybe the Raiders jersey and Cardinals helmet were the same idea. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Jaguars had an all teal in the game, and this was many years before they started wearing the combo in real life. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nostalgia is a hell of a thing. It's like when Lorne Michaels was asked what the best cast of SNL is. I think he said something to the effect of "whichever one was on the air when you were 15". 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
