tohasbo Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 There are some on here who have said over and over again these will not be seen on the field. Even though I am not one of the guys in the loop on this, I can assure you these will not be worn. EVER. People would probably go blind or have to affix their television sets.

BBTV Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 I'm getting kind of tired about the exaggerations used when discussing these."people's eyes will fall out!!!!" "OMFG I'm going to go blind!!!" "the goggles.. they do nothing!!!" "LOL ur kidding me!!! there soo brite!!!"It's not flourescent. It's not neon. It's not even that bright. It's just a limeish peaish green. You may not like the color, and that's fine, but to act like it's just bursting out at you is ridiculous. They're not even close to what the Orlando Thunder wore. They'd actually look rather flat while on the field.

Has the NFL done away with the jersey with the extra-long sleeves and gone to a more realistic look, or are these just concepts?

DG_ThenNowForever Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 From the Seattle Times today: http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/seah...697_hawk03.htmlThe color is actually rave green though radioactive cabbage might be more descriptive.Or perhaps the slime from "Ghostbusters."But a template called a uniform slick for the neon green alternative Seahawks jersey was published on Michael Princip's blog GreenGlare.com and linked on Uniwatchblog.com. Click here to see the slick.Princip said in an e-mail that the green jersey was part of an April Fool's joke. However, the hoax could in fact become a reality. According to the team, Reebok has made a green "fashion" jersey and sold it the past couple of years. The Seahawks would have the option of wearing the neon green jersey as its third — alternate jersey — if wanted, but no decision has been made.I think that author is just making that up. 1 hour ago, ShutUpLutz! said: and the drunken doodoobags jumping off the tops of SUV's/vans/RV's onto tables because, oh yeah, they are drunken drug abusing doodoobags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gothamite Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 Don't think he did make it up - it's a pretty meaningless statement.Yes, the Seahawks could wear it as their third jersey, since it meets the requirements (maintains color scheme). They'd have to inform the League, in advance of each season's deadline, but they have the option of elevating it from fashion jersey to on-field alternate. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database!

PatriotX03 Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 I for one would love to see the seahawks in that green jersey, don't know why but i just like it, you don't see those colors that often. I would love to see a green monochrome also! haha i'm a sick individual! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The new Dolphins sheet is still using the old template though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

myartsaywhat Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 Even though this was a joke. With the Hawks already selling a "fashion" version of this could actually happen. A lot of the polls and message boards in Seattle were about 50% of people liking the bright design. This may be enough market study along with strong sells of the fashion version to actually bring this design to the field. Spooky eh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought NFL teams needed two years advance notice? Or is that NBA?No, you're right - the Rams in particular have a reputation for missing the deadline - but that's what I meant. The reporter didn't say they could wear the jersey as an alt in any specific game, only that they have the option to add it to their rotation if they so desire. As I said, a pretty meaningless statement in its generality. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
