TruColor Posted January 10, 2003 Share Posted January 10, 2003 Apparently, today on a radio station in Phoenix, Michael Bidwill and Rod Graves of the Cardinals' front office were asked about the possibility of new uniforms once they move into the new stadium (looks like 2005).They said they are definitely considering a change...however, they WILL still be the Cardinals. No name change.I've mentioned this before, but there's a designer out there who has sent me preliminary designs for a new AZ Cardinals look, but he won't let me share it until it's done. It kicks serious booty. I just LOVE this guy's idea. I can't wait to share, but I promised him I wouldn't prematurely.WooHoo!! My Cardinals might make a change!!!!(I've only been waiting - oh, about 33 years so far...no gray facemasks? Please?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TruColor Posted January 10, 2003 Author Share Posted January 10, 2003 No; the only hint I'll give is that is uses a variation of the Arizona state flag's colors... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JQK Posted January 10, 2003 Share Posted January 10, 2003 The cardinals should use 2 colors..Cardinal, and White.Maybe black....Maybe....but that's it.AND GRAY FACEMASKS RULE!!!!! ( ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puckguy14 Posted January 10, 2003 Share Posted January 10, 2003 DO YOU BELIEVE IN MIRACLES? YES. All I have to say is, it's about darn time! (Ideas? See my concept on Pantone's SSUR site!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tout_pret Posted January 10, 2003 Share Posted January 10, 2003 No; the only hint I'll give is that is uses a variation of the Arizona state flag's colors...Hmmm, so that would be blue, red, yellow, and copper. No brown. Trivia on the flag - the blue and yellow are Arizona's colors and the red and yellow are the colors of the Spanish Conquistadores headed by Coronado who first came to Arizona in 1540. The blue and the red are the same as on the US flag. The copper star represents Arizona as the largest producer of copper in the nation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STL FANATIC Posted January 10, 2003 Share Posted January 10, 2003 I love grey facemasks. But only if they are part of the color scheme. Ad a hint of grey to the scheme, and grey face masks work. See Giants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowcap30 Posted January 10, 2003 Share Posted January 10, 2003 i think that it is good that the cards are changing. about time. and i see no harm with the grey facemasks. and i see wut STL is saying about the giants. their pants are a grey tint, that of the helmet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronChefShark Posted January 11, 2003 Share Posted January 11, 2003 if those are the colors they are going to use, I hope they dont make the helmets and pants copper (assuming the dark jersey is PANTONE 194C). Then they will look too much like the 49ers or the team they intend to beat this sunday, the Bucs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Discrim Posted January 12, 2003 Share Posted January 12, 2003 bear in mind these infamous words, originally brought to you by pantone: "Let's see what the other teams do first"-Bidwill in 72 when it was suggested that the Cards change to black facemasks. that said, them desert birds need something. i never thought it'd be a uni change, but sounds likely to me.

tout_pret Posted January 12, 2003 Share Posted January 12, 2003 From an article in today's Arizona Republic @http://www.arizonarepublic.com/sports/arti...ickley0112.htmlDuring a radio show appearance, Bidwill said the organization is contemplating changing its uniforms when it begins play at the new stadium. When pressed by host Mike Jurecki, Bidwill said both color and design of the uniform could be altered. And while the bird logo would forever be untouched, fan participation may be utilized in making the final decision.Now, if the old man was not aware of such plans, they are words that will surely make his ears bleed. But it's exactly what the public wants to hear.See, a small thing like changing the colors would mean everything to Arizonans. It would be a sign that the Cardinals are their football team, not a team from another town clinging to a tradition born in another city. It appears the young Bidwill understands this.???
