sscrunner06 Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 I love throwbacks, especially the Dallas ones. I wish the Saints would follow suit.By the way, have any other teams recently worn throwbacks in the preseason? Just a question I'm throwing out there.

DGivens87 Posted August 22, 2006 Share Posted August 22, 2006 Not only are they wearing throwbacks, but some of the jerseys (Marion Barber and Julius Jones) have the "Cowboys" script just below the neckline, while Terry Glenn doesn't have an NFL Equipment patch on his jersey. A large cheese pizza, just for me.New England's source for soccer newsAnd hey, I made it to ESPN! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jagler Posted August 22, 2006 Share Posted August 22, 2006 as for saints helmets--i know that the logo is smaller this year...here's my question--are the numerals on the back of the helmet different this year as well? on the outer stripes the gold numbers? looks new to me but what do i know...

number81 Posted August 22, 2006 Share Posted August 22, 2006 the "cowboys" script under the collar is lame. leave it to the cowboys to screw up their throwback... nice work, jerry! http://anyonebutdetroit.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
statebully Posted August 22, 2006 Share Posted August 22, 2006 saints are home team tonight and wearing white. is this a sign that they might think of wearing white at home this season? i would welcome that change! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitedawg22 Posted August 22, 2006 Share Posted August 22, 2006 saints are home team tonight and wearing white. is this a sign that they might think of wearing white at home this season? i would welcome that change! Quite a few teams only wear white in preseason, to make the first time they wear the home jerseys (ostensibly the first home game of the season) seem more special. It's possible the Saints are saving their black jerseys for their first true home game in 2 years, on September 25. oh ,my god ,i strong recommend you to have a visit on the website ,or if i'm the president ,i would have an barceque with the anthor of the articel .

wman Posted August 22, 2006 Share Posted August 22, 2006 Thought throwbacks were only for 2 games in the regular season??? Why is it the Cowboys are once again allowed to flaunt the rules?? Bring back the Whale! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The announce crew made note of the fact that it's hotter then hell out there so I think the Saints wore white for that reason more then anything else.

It's possible the Saints are saving their black jerseys for their first true home game in 2 years, on September 25. It was noted that it was 100+ degrees in Shreveport today. That could have something to do with them wearing white...In fact, I just looked it up - game-time temp was 97 with a dew point of 66... That's a heat index of 102, and that's at 7 p.m.Moose Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And no, those helmet numbers aren't new or different. I shot this 2 years ago at Lambeau - same size fleur-de-lis, same helmet numbers.Note Aaron Brooks' full name is on his jersey because they had a received named Ahmad Brooks on the roster at the time. After Ahmad was released, Aaron's jersey name was back to Brooks.As for tonight's performance by the Saints, this isn't me but he must have been watching them also...

The Bengals list the black jersey as the jersey they will be wearing for that game on their website. So that's where I think people are coming to the conclusion that Saints might be thinking about doing that all season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
In 5..4..3..2..1 Posted August 22, 2006 Share Posted August 22, 2006 By the way we know that the Saints do play in the Dome and that would kill the reason for them trying to gain an advantage do to the heat in that game against the Bengals during the regular season.

dennisbergan Posted August 22, 2006 Share Posted August 22, 2006 As bad as the Saints are likely going to be this year, it won't matter whether they are wearing black, white or polka-dot home jerseys. They won't have much of an advantage with any of them.Wearing white at home (except for a early season warm weather game) is lame. The only team that should get a pass is Dallas, because they have done it continuously for so long. It stinks when a team wears the same uniform for every single game in a season. Its boring.

Dallas, Washington, Miami, Carolina. yeah these teams have done it for awhile, but i still think white looks better for the saints Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love it when teams wear white at home, but only when THEY are playing dallas, forcing them to wear their "unlucky" blue jerseys. If Dallas wants to be superstitious and dumb about the whole thing by wearing white all the time, other teams should be able to screw with them.
