winghaz Posted December 12, 2005 Share Posted December 12, 2005 What if the Detroit Lions replaced its black trim with navy blue trim? And had navy blue alternate jerseys instead of black jerseys? Would that make them look better? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shumway Posted December 12, 2005 Share Posted December 12, 2005 It would look better, I think, but it still wouldn't be right. They shouldn't have put any dark trim at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chazberg Posted December 12, 2005 Share Posted December 12, 2005 What they need to do is go back to the unis of 1985, which were the same as 3 years ago except with matching striped socks. Top notch. Obviously their current look needs to go as it is synonimous with mediocrity. charles-noerenberg.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbman21 Posted December 12, 2005 Share Posted December 12, 2005 Obviously their current look needs to go as it is synonimous with mediocrity. If the Lions were mediocre that would be a hell of a lot better than they've been in five years.Mediocre would be a great improvement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Intimidator85 Posted December 12, 2005 Share Posted December 12, 2005 I would not favor navy blue. In fact, I don't have a problem with the black trim they use now. Even the uniforms they had previously were good ones. I say no change is necessary. It's really the honolulu blue that make these great uniforms and the black does not detract from it at all.

What makes you so sure that will happen? It is obvious that he has incriminating pictures of one or more members of the Ford family (and isn't afraid to use them). Otherwise, he would have been fired long ago.

logodawg Posted December 12, 2005 Share Posted December 12, 2005 I hope the Fords don't run their car company the way they run their football team... I once had a car but I crashed it.

Max Power Posted December 12, 2005 Share Posted December 12, 2005 I think the black trim looks really sharp. I've always liked the current Lions jerseys. The black alt. jersey took it too far though.Yes, what if the Lions... didn't suck. I thought that too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JQK Posted December 13, 2005 Share Posted December 13, 2005 Since hiring Millen, the Lions have had a worse winning percentage than the years before he joined the team. The Fords MUST see this fact, and realize their team is heading down, not up, and a change in GM is needed. The Lions now have hired and fired two coaches in the Millen Era. There is only one constant: Matt Millen was GM.It's so obvious, but the Ford's seem to be loyal to Millen, so there's several more years of sucking ahead for Detroit.

brinkeguthrie Posted December 13, 2005 Share Posted December 13, 2005 Millen should just pack up the black jerseys and anything with black trim, and carry it with him on his way out of town. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jayworld Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 Yes, I think the Lions should lose all traces of the black, and go back to the "Billy Sims" era uniforms (with the silver numbers outlined in white on the Honolulu blue home jerseys). It always bothered me when they changed the numbers to white, outlined in silver, and left the sleeve stripes silver outlined in white. It should be one way or the other, either white numbers and sleeve stripes outlined in silver, or silver numbers and sleeve stripes outlined in white. The road uniforms were great!And I don't even want to think about the new black facemasks; those are horrible; bring back the blue!Jayworld Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
