TruColor Posted July 20, 2005 Share Posted July 20, 2005 I've played around a little bit with Buffalo's existing uniform set, and thought that maybe THIS was a better way to go...get rid of the Dark Navy Blue, keep the Nickel, and go with White helmets. It still needs a little clean-up, but you'll get the idea: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gashouser27 Posted July 20, 2005 Share Posted July 20, 2005 Nice I like it. A little retro. More character. I hate the dark blue. Right now they have the worst uniforms Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LMU Posted July 20, 2005 Share Posted July 20, 2005 The shoulder yoke just doesn't work IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PackerBadger Posted July 20, 2005 Share Posted July 20, 2005 You could take the nickel out completely and its absence wouldn't be noticeable. And the yoke works for hockey, but not football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jezus_Ghoti Posted July 20, 2005 Share Posted July 20, 2005 I normally think that Pantone is the man, but I think that this concept is very weak. The minuses outnumber the pluses.Good: Got rid of the 2-tone blue.Bad: Still a disgusting yoke.Bad: Nickel included, but not needed at all.Bad: Introduces another white helmet into a division already with 2 white helmets and a silver helmet.

Telemundo219 Posted July 22, 2005 Share Posted July 22, 2005 this is nice a way betther their current jersey. A mix somewhat old and new. Great Job, just make it a blue helmet with a white bill/buffalo. College sports as we know them are just about dead. The lid is off on all the corruption that taints just about every major program and every decision that the schools or the NCAA make is only about money, money, and more money. We'll have three 16+ team super-conferences sooner rather than later, killing much of the regional flair and traditional rivalries that make college sports unique and showing the door to any school that doesn't bring money to the table in the process. Pretty soon the smaller schools are going to have to consider forming their own sanctioning body to keep the true spirit of college sports alive because the NCAA will only get worse in it's excess from here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmered Posted July 22, 2005 Share Posted July 22, 2005 Nice to see I'm someone's inspiration.I might tell my mum about that.She'll be pleased.As for the jersey, well, I was looking to get rid of the yoke, which is the thing on the white jersey that's around the neck.(Nickel is the colour used as an accent, and for mine, that can go too)Actually, I'm sounding like JG.I prefer the red helmet too.As for the yoke, it's not only retro, it's one of those retro things that should never come back into fashion.Like penny farthing bikes, or top hats.There aren't many teams you can say this about, but they looked better 25 years ago.

iconoclast Posted July 22, 2005 Share Posted July 22, 2005 There aren't many teams you can say this about, but they looked better 25 years ago. (OK, Cinci is another)Amen to that! I see you chose the 1982 Bills unis- i prefer the slightly different 1980 version. The socks look better, plus the stripe on the white pants are red-blue-red, which i like better than the blue-red-blue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FiddySicks Posted July 22, 2005 Share Posted July 22, 2005 What is a yolk and a nickel? Yolk- the nasty collar the bills have (or something like that)Nickel- one of the colors on the bills helmet stripes, sort of like silver (or copper, i dunno) On 11/19/2012 at 7:23 PM, oldschoolvikings said: She’s still half convinced “Chris Creamer” is a porn site.)

gashouser27 Posted July 22, 2005 Share Posted July 22, 2005 The Bills are in danger of losing their identity in order to sell more jerseys!I agree with the 80's style uniform coming back. I guess I agree with a red or blue helmet. Little known fact, the Bills switched from white helmets to try to help Joe Ferguson cut down interceptions. I think back in the 80's almost all the teams in the East had white helmets - Colts, Jets, Patriots, DolphinsI like the old style "buffalo" on the helmet too!
