santoleri3 Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 Potential Tennessee options for the Oilers:Am I the only one who like really misses those old Bengals duds?You have LOTS of company.Yeah. I don't mind the all blacks (I know that's kind of not the popular sentiment here), but I miss the old Wyche era threads...

Cujo Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 From the looks of it, the Lions are in fact rockin' those 1950s throwbacks of theirs for Thanksgiving Day.IMO, they'll probably play as good as they look today. (Yeah, not a fan of the unis.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CubsFanBudMan Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 So, didn't see this anywhere, but: No throwbacks for the Cowboys on Thanksgiving?First time in several years, but I thought something might be up when they wore the retros on Sunday. Actually was nice to see them wear their actual home uni for once, flawed as it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBTV Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 Your arrogance is astounding, especially when taking into account your complete lack of any kind of knowledge about the subjects you talk about. This is a bad pattern with you, as it has showed up in almost every thread you've been a part of.Nice comeback, Sparky.Here is some knowledge for you. The Baltimore Ravens FRANCHISE used to be the Cleveland Browns. If the New York Titans (who were a complete joke of a team) can be used as "throwemback uniforms" for the Jets FRANCHISE, then why not the Ravens using some of those old, tired Browns threads for a throwback classic game? And, yes, I know the Browns new franchise got to get "its" history and colors back. But, we all know the real deal. The Browns, even though they pretend to own their history now, are a expansion FRANCHISE. Without the NFL building its stadium for them and picking Al Lerner to own the team, there is no Browns football team anymore. They would be just a footnote in NFL history, just like the St. Louis Cardinals and the Los Angelas Raiders.The "real deal" is this. Officially, The NFL determined that The Browns history and colors would stay in Cleveland when Modell moved his franchise to Baltimore. The Browns franchise was not gone. It was simply dormant. The rest is just your asinine opinion.Well I happen to agree with his opinion. The NFL can spin it all they want, but legal technicalities aside, the lineage (this guy played with this guy, who played with this guy, who... etc.) traces back to the start of the Browns franchise. I understand the whole "dormant" thing, and how the Ravens are technically an expansion team, but that still doesn't change what actually happened. If I changed my name, would I be considered a new born, and turn one (instead of 32) next year?

bigdub81 Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 I would have liked to have seen these aside from Detroit going retro already. If not for any other game during the year, I think the NFL should mandate retro uni's for Thanksgiving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well done. Why bother with the stripes when there is no room for stripes?These all look superior to the contemporary looks of each team. Clean, distinctive football uniforms which honor the past in a modern context. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clean, distinctive football uniforms which honor the past in a modern context.I picked the uniforms for Seattle and Tennessee because these are the one's that you'd never see. Everyone favors the Seahawks with the wrap-around logo on the sleeve and the Houston Oilers of the Campbell / Moon era. Show me the originals! Let me see a powder blue Oilers helmet and some striped Seahawks which I had no choice but to put on the sleeves since the team has had it since it's inception into the league. Detroit fails at it's throwback attempt by using a black facemask. I wouldn't be suprised if they just strip the regualr helmets of the decals and say go lose! Dallas, on the other hand has a improper pattern based on the teams original design. Everything else is good except for the sleeve yoke which I corrected.

bigdub81 Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 Anybody know who's playing next year for Thanksgiving? I will be bored tomorrow at work and thought I'd get a jump on the upcoming year... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBGKon Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 Well, Detroit will surely play an NFC team and Dallas will go AFC, just so CBS and Fox switch it up.Other than division games, the Lions play Arizona, St. Louis, and an whoever finished last in the NFC East. Dallas plays the Raiders and the Chargers at home.Right now, I'd suggest it'll be Dallas v. San Diego and Detroit v. an NFC North Opponent other than the Packers.
