Tampa Bay Buccaneers to wear orange throwbacks in 2009

Replace Bucco Bruce with the current logo on the helmet and I wouldn't mind seeing these full time. There are really no orange teams in pro sports (well, I guess the Flyers are from time to time). They're clean, unique, and the current logo matches beautifully (maybe change the ball color to match the orange in the unis).

I was thinking the same thing, the old orange uniform design is outstanding, and as much as I like Bucco Bruce the current flag logo is better. Just not a fan of the pewter and red.

Did I miss something? I was always under the impression that the creamsicle jerseys were lampooned for years. Now they're outstanding?

I don't know, I had several friends while growing up that chose the Bucs as their team because of their uniforms. Regardless of how good they were, they just liked how they looked.

You gotta remember one thing, Ad...many of those posting in this thread may not have ever seen the real creamsicles in action.

But...I am glad that more people are seeing the inherent beauty in what I believe, bias be damned, was the most beautifullest set of uniforms the NFL has ever seen.

*Disclaimer: I am not an authoritative expert on stuff...I just do a lot of reading and research and keep in close connect with a bunch of people who are authoritative experts on stuff. 😁

i'm fortunately old enough to remember the old creamsicles, broncos orange crush, pat the patriot etc. it was actually jarring one day to open up the news paper and see the bucs current set for the first time. I was so used to seeing bucco and the orange unis that it took A LONG time to associate the current set with the team.

Searched but couldn't find a pic of Warren Sapp when he got drafted by the Bucs. Saw a feature about it on TV once and he talked about hating those unis. I've never ever seen anyone look the way he did after Tampa Bay drafted him. Rather than a creamsicle jersey, his expression in the pictures suggests he was holding up a big steaming pile of something left behind by a Great Dane with intestinal issues. :D

a friend of mine back in 98 who was a year younger than me wore a sapp/creamsicle jersey to school.

Well, to clarify, he was upset about going to the then-horrible Bucs, not the jersey in particular.

Correct. Actually they just replayed an episode of "America's Game" on the NFL network about the Bucs SB win and it has that flashback in it.

Anyone purchased the new 76 throwback jerseys yet ? Interested to see the difference between the shades of orange from someone who also has an orange jerseys from the 90s.

I ordered a Selmon jersey, which I just got on Monday. Here it is:

I just ordered it from the team website, but right now it's not loading for me.

Yep, so did I. Mine hasn't even shipped yet. :cry:

I'm glad they went to great lengths to get the jerseys right. Facemask, even.

But where in the hell did those sock stripes come from?

I know for a fact the Buccs wore striped white socks back in those days...never have I EVER seen striped orange socks. Wtf?

Apparently they did wear those socks when they wore the orange jerseys, according to this team pic. But of course no one really got to see them since they only wore them once during the preseason.

Possibly the only photo in the Western Hemisphere of that game.
