Gothamite Posted October 4, 2004 Share Posted October 4, 2004 Very cool. Maybe one of these days ownership will realize what the fans want and bring them ball full-time. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmoothieX Posted October 4, 2004 Share Posted October 4, 2004 I heard Berman and Jackson waxing poetic about them on NFL Primetime last night, and I agree completely. Too bad the game won't be on around here. I got lucky in the that they played the Jets on throwback day a couple years back. (double bonus for the fact that the Jets beat the snot out of them)Now we just need them to play Lions on Thanksgiving one year and I will be set!

Blue Falcon Posted October 4, 2004 Share Posted October 4, 2004 Gee, ya think the Bolts will win this time? They're 0-3 in the candyass-blue jerseys since 2000! Each time they get shellacked! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Each time they get shellacked! ya, but they look good doing it. maby its a sighn from above that as long as the powder blues are relagated to alts. they will always lose in 'em. im with gothamite. bring them back full time. leave navy and yellow/gold to the rams.

LimeGuy Posted October 4, 2004 Share Posted October 4, 2004 I thought you were joking about the powder blue, but I see you're not.Those things are horrid. Nasty looking. Ew.But, that is my personal opinion. I'm not taking anything away from your tastes. That just isn't my style. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See Red Posted October 4, 2004 Share Posted October 4, 2004 I thought you were joking about the powder blue, but I see you're not.Those things are horrid. Nasty looking. Ew.But, that is my personal opinion. I'm not taking anything away from your tastes. That just isn't my style. Don't you normally like jerseys that are kind of unique or creative, for lack of a better term?Aside from that -- while I love the light blue jerseys (Have a Quentin Jammer one hanging in my closet), and wouldn't be against them being brought back, I think their current jerseys are the best in the league. There's not something about them -- so nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avenger Posted October 4, 2004 Share Posted October 4, 2004 I wouldn't mind the addition of light blue into their existing scheme, but I like the navy blue better because the yellow pops pretty well. I think the yellow and white contrasting with the navy is very important to their look.I know there's a lot of nostalgia with the powder blues, but I just don't think they work as well as the navys.

LimeGuy Posted October 4, 2004 Share Posted October 4, 2004 It is actually only the color that makes me say "ew". I'm not a fan of the powder blue, unless it is accenting correctly (like with the Titans). As a main color, though, I am glad its not around. The Oilers with that color now would have been... uh... bad.And, yes, I'm the one that likes "fresh and new". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paynomind Posted October 4, 2004 Share Posted October 4, 2004 I like the blue, myself.. but i'm all for what Av said.. the mix... toss it into the scheme. I'm afriad that might end up looking a little too Titan-ish, though. It would have to be done very carefully.I think it is interesting to point out they are 0-3 in that color.. arent they 7-36 over that period, regardless of the color they wear, or somehting liek that?

LMU Posted October 4, 2004 Share Posted October 4, 2004 They really should bring them back, but modernize them a bit. They need to take the numbers off the helmets, and maybe add a little navy trim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevja Posted October 4, 2004 Share Posted October 4, 2004 The baby blues are nice. But they've become the most over appreciated unis in recent memory. They're cool with white pants, but imho, are butt ugly with the yellow pants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

winghaz Posted October 5, 2004 Share Posted October 5, 2004 Actually, my favorite look of the Chargers was the royal blue worn by the Dan Fourts era. The royal blue helmets with the gold (or yellow, if you will) facemasks seemed to have pizazz. And those unis are often forgotten in the powder blue-navy blue debates.

stimpy Posted October 6, 2004 Share Posted October 6, 2004 (aka the greatest unis in all of sports) That's funny because that is exactly what Chris Berman said in the Red Sox-Angels game today. Yeah I like teh powder blue's no doubt. Alot better than the currents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBGKon Posted October 6, 2004 Share Posted October 6, 2004 heres a concept of mine that I came up with. It's a combo of old poder blue and what they have nowChargers conceptwhat do you all think???**EDIT 10/6 - added gold pants** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
