NY Jay Posted March 31, 2006 Share Posted March 31, 2006 I have a feeling these are either going to look really nice or really ugly. The idea of the all purple uniforms frightens me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hawk36 Posted March 31, 2006 Share Posted March 31, 2006 All purple scares me too. I love purple in moderation but a little can go a long way. I remember when the UW Huskies tried the purple helmets and looked horrible. Design Hovie Studios Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TruColor Posted March 31, 2006 Share Posted March 31, 2006 The Arizona Cardinals followed a similar route whenthey redesigned their uniforms two years ago. Uh...ONE year ago. It hasn't been THAT long yet... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TenaciousG Posted March 31, 2006 Share Posted March 31, 2006 Cross of San Diego and Denver?Shoulder stripePlus Broncos stripe... would equal the WSU/Toledo stripes:That would be pretty scary to see for the vikings. How else coud they "combine" the SD and Denver unis?

HowBoutThemFins Posted March 31, 2006 Share Posted March 31, 2006 Well I think it's a given that the Viking logo won't change seeing how it looks the same on the draft caps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
In 5..4..3..2..1 Posted April 1, 2006 Share Posted April 1, 2006 A mix of the Chargers and Broncos does'nt sound very subtle or very good to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

winghaz Posted April 1, 2006 Share Posted April 1, 2006 Which is unfortunate if true...it's the one aspect of their identity package that definitely DOES need an update...Why update the Vikings logo?As a Vikings fan AND a Norwegian-American (in other words, a descendent of the real Vikings), I say it's perfect the way it is.Let's leave well enough alone. Enough of changing for the sake of change. Look where it got the Toronto Blue Jays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgnmrwrw Posted April 1, 2006 Share Posted April 1, 2006 A mix of the Chargers and Broncos does'nt sound very subtle or very good to me. My thoughts exactly. I can't imagine how this will be anything but a big step backward. HURRICANES | PANTHERS | WHITE SOX | WOLFPACK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebod39 Posted April 1, 2006 Share Posted April 1, 2006 I'm trying to figure out what it is about San Diego they would emulate enough to callit out as such " cross between". I mean I get the Broncos, that's easy but the ChargersI don't see anything unique aside from the lightning bolts and they sure can't use those.oh, wait, maybe it's the tri-color number. To seperate the yellow and whit, since they are so close in value with an outline of purple. Now that would make sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtrich11 Posted April 1, 2006 Share Posted April 1, 2006 Which is unfortunate if true...it's the one aspect of their identity package that definitely DOES need an update...Word. I have to wonder if it's on their agenda. I've seen a lot of updates on the board (incl. mine) and a few haven't been too bad. And for the unis, were they NFL Props in-house, or did they get someone outside to do them? Just wondering what route they took. cafepress.com/artbyrichards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Redskins and Chiefs have/had an arrowhead or spear and the Raiders and Buccaneers have swords. Save the slugalo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
