cranium Posted October 9, 2005 Share Posted October 9, 2005 Any idea why on earth that the Browns are in all white today at home? It is not exactly a heat wave coming off Lake Erie. P.S. I usually hate all white. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JQK Posted October 9, 2005 Share Posted October 9, 2005 the Browns have a history of wearing white at home. I like it.

bulldogbarks55 Posted October 9, 2005 Share Posted October 9, 2005 So that they look like the Cleveland Browns, not some schlock Arena League team. When the Browns won their last champioship in '64 they wore all-white in a 27-0 a**-kicking of the invincible Baltimore Colts of Johnny U & Co. and it was a heck of a lot colder that day at Municipal Stadium. The Browns should ALWAYS wear all-white. It's one of football's all-time best uniforms! Nuf ced! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
infrared41 Posted October 9, 2005 Share Posted October 9, 2005 Their home record is bad wearing the brown jersey. They wore white at home in most every successful season they have ever had. And they look great. I like them. Nice win today. GO BROWNS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slats7 Posted October 9, 2005 Share Posted October 9, 2005 The problem is that the orange stripe on their pants it too wide. They need to go back to the thinner mid-1980s stripe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Galwegian Posted October 10, 2005 Share Posted October 10, 2005 I've heard before that Paul Brown always preferred to dress his Browns teams in white because he thought it made the players look bigger and therefore more menacing. The Browns are big on tradition (even the "new" Browns, especially now that Davis is gone), so it's not surprising that they still seem to prefer white.In my own opinion, I think it's a classy look, although I do like the brown jerseys a lot too.

andrewharrington Posted October 10, 2005 Share Posted October 10, 2005 I like the whites better as well. They look great with orange pants as well. I would like the brown jerseys a whole lot better if the white and orange sleeve stripes were flush together instead of showing the little sliver of brown between them.

Chazberg Posted October 10, 2005 Share Posted October 10, 2005 I like the all whites and I'm thrilled they went back to the striped socks as well, now if they would only go back to the old pants with the brown strip in the middle and not on the outsides, and lose the script under the collar they'd be set..... charles-noerenberg.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cubbymark Posted October 10, 2005 Share Posted October 10, 2005 I don't really like home teams in the NFL wearing white. It just seems the NFL has always been different in this regard. Most teams (before the abominations that took place this year) wore their dark jerseys at home. I get annoyed at teams like Dallas and Washington when they wear white 99% of the time, although it just seems that's the way it is, and I have grown to accept it. I like the brown jerseys for Cleveland. The all white for the browns does work well, I must admit. Still, I'd rather all teams be uniform in regards to uniform colors for home and away.

Mojomiko Posted October 10, 2005 Share Posted October 10, 2005 In regards to the Browns uniforms, I love the brown jerseys. I like the whites and I could do without the orange alternates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burning River Posted October 10, 2005 Share Posted October 10, 2005 It seems that the Browns wear white at home early in the season, the nBrown later. It's not a "weather" decision. Of course I can't remember, but it seems that they wear white the first 3 or 4 home games, then Brown later in the season. But... this team seems to be reaching back for tradition. So, it may be white/white for the season at home. I like the orange pants Pre-Spandex era. The shiny orange pants rub me the wrong way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
