ericcartman19 Posted December 23, 2006 Share Posted December 23, 2006 I'm guessing the Dolphins will be wearing Orange on Monday Night because it's a night game and they wear dark colored jerseys on night games. Another reason why is because they haven't worn it since they beat the Patriots back in 2004. That was their last night game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was their last night game.No orange jerseys this year, from what I remember looking at the NFL alt. jersey schedule. Somebody posted it awhile back, and I don't remember seeing the 'Fins alts on it this year. A large cheese pizza, just for me.New England's source for soccer newsAnd hey, I made it to ESPN!

-(dp)- Posted December 24, 2006 Share Posted December 24, 2006 No, the navy jersey was just a fashion jersey. I don't know why teams aren't wearing their orange jerseys this year. The browns, broncos, and dolphins aren't. Orange is the best color ever, I don't see why teams are dropping it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJSpeedy Posted December 25, 2006 Share Posted December 25, 2006 I expect the Dolphins to wear Orange because it was not only a night game but because it was Monday Night Football.You might have something there. The Fins last played a MNF game in 2004.However, they did not wear their orange jerseys in their 2 MNF appearances in 2003. The only time they did wear them that season was against Washington, a Sunday night game I believe.They wore their White/Aqua combo against San Diego, and went All-Aqua (YAK!) against Philly.

TruColor Posted December 25, 2006 Share Posted December 25, 2006 Isn't "coral" the official name for Dolphins orange?Yes, but it's the same color (Orange) that the Bengals, Browns, Broncos and Buccaneers use.Cute color descriptions like "Coral" are pretty much pointless.

DJSpeedy Posted December 26, 2006 Share Posted December 26, 2006 Back on topic here....No orange jerseys for the Fins tonight.Given that they didn't wear them tonight, and that they last wore them in 2004, I would say that those jerseys have most likely been retired from use.

Has it been over a year since the last time they wore this combo? Seems like it...Dolphins wore aqua jerseys, white pants against the Texans this year in Houston.

Sort of. They made the solid/spot color that they've been using as the Brown a custom CMYK color (it's just the same CMYK breakdown they were already using), left the fabric/textile the same color, and are calling it a "different" Brown.It's not.What's also weird, is that the Dolphins changed the sleeve striping on the Coral/Orange alts after the 2004 season, but haven't yet worn them in a game.Here's what I mean:Through 2004:2005 through present: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PackerBadger Posted December 27, 2006 Share Posted December 27, 2006 Is it not time for the Dolphins to update their look? Given that the aqua is darker than it used to be, what is the need for the navy blue? Moreover, shadowed numbers are so '90s (and '50s). They should go back to something more like ...

Troy Posted December 27, 2006 Share Posted December 27, 2006 I've never liked shadowed numbers. The numbers that have an outline are much better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troy Posted December 27, 2006 Share Posted December 27, 2006 Oh, and one of the reasons the navy blue is a fashion jersey is probably because the team plays in Miami. Try running around in heavy gear in dark blue for three hours in the South. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
