beansdooma Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 I really think these Bucs training camp jerseys, or at least the lettering and coloring, should be integrated into their uniforms. The numbers just look so... piratey.Check it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lilgump Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 As much as I think those letters are awsome, I dont think that they would be too legible on the field. I think maybe if they were a little more calm, but the same kind of style, then it would be pretty cool.

officeglenn Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 I'm sure this has been brought up before, but basically those numbers are too complicated to work on the field. They would be illegible on TV and from the cheap seats in the stadium, and any sort of glare or fold of the jersey could distort them and make them indistinguishable for photogs. I think they're better off sticking with the varsity block numbers for games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Telemundo219 Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 The Cowboys should make their practice jerseys into their real jerseys. 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...
eqtmgr Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 Like most teams in the NFL, they are using their walkthrough jerseys in those pics. They are only used on days when there are no pads being used. The numbers would never be approved for field use becuase, as some have stated here, they are not legible.

TenaciousG Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 Those seem like something out of the XFL. I think they're great for practice jerseys, but on the field they would be a mess because the numbers are just too goofy. As boring as block number can be sometimes, people often do prefer them.

paynomind Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 i think they are slightly too stylized, but I dont hate them. I'd like to see them clean them up just slightly, and use them.Teams redesigning to look more modern, like the Vikings did, only to use old school block numbers is ridiculous and slackass.

dennisbergan Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 Forget about these practice jerseys. What has been the reasoning behind not using a pewter alternate jersey? You put a pewter jersey (with white numbers trimmed just like the regular red jersey numbers are) with pewter helmet, white pants, black socks and black shoes and that would be a really cool look. Plus, it wouldn't be another black alternate jersey (that so many of you are so bothered by). It would look good and it would be different from any other team in the NFL. It would certainly look better than the dingy silver jersey's that NE has worn. And, since pewter is so dark, it could be used as the dark jersey (with the opponent in white).The Bucs haven't done any updating to their unis since they made their debut in 97'. They have, in my opinion, the best uniform in the NFL. A pewter alternate would cap it off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sodboy13 Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 Anyone have pics from the Bucs' minicamp jerseys of a few years back? I recall black numbers and color blocks on the shoulders and sleeves. I also recall liking it.

Claystation360 Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 1st , the reason they don't use the # is because of the view from the nosebleed area would play hell on peoples eyes . but I do like them . 2nd , The pewter was denied in 2003 by the NFL front office saying "pewter is a neutral color & cant not be used in the uniform . " & "GM Bruce Allen said no citrus is coming back at this time & we will not be wearing black when we play in central florida ."3rd , thats about the must stupid thing I have ever heard if it'd good enough for pants then whats wrong ? #DTWD #GoJaguars Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lumbergh Posted April 29, 2006 Share Posted April 29, 2006 it's kinda like the old show "Playmakers." They used standard block numbers for their playing unis, then the sweetest numbers i've seen for their practice jerseys.can't find any pics of their practice unis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sodboy13 Posted April 29, 2006 Share Posted April 29, 2006 I think their practice jerseys used Bank Gothic. Honestly, it's one of those fonts that's used everywhere, and I know it when I see it, but I can't place the name.Also, evil eye to the NFL for forcing Playmakers off the air.

You're right, but if a team can make a number font other than block look good, I'm all for it. Like when the Lightning used Reporter Two as their number font. That was pretty sweet looking.
