njmeadowlanders Posted November 9, 2009 Author Share Posted November 9, 2009 How 'bout those Bucs unis come back full time?...they did win.I'd say bring them back full-time if they didn't have a kick-ass set currently...A couple of times a season though it's wonderful.

Claystation360 Posted November 9, 2009 Share Posted November 9, 2009 I'm stoked about them, I'm not as big on this as I am the 79 ones or even into the early 90s. But these were awesome to see and I really think they should be used seldomly so it doesn't deminish the valve of throwback heritage . But I would be totally be down for a modernized unis with all the modern colors and logos just switching the Buc Red for "creamsicle and replace the orange in the home uniform with buc red??

Brave-Bird 08 Posted November 9, 2009 Share Posted November 9, 2009 is New Orleans going to wear a throwback this year? I know they did a few times this decade, so I assumed they would this year considering everyone else is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M59 Posted November 9, 2009 Share Posted November 9, 2009 I like the all white with the white socks the Redskins are sporting today as the road uni instead of white over the maroon with maroon socks.The Redskins looked like they played today...bad.It's time this team went back to wearing the uniform as it was intended to be worn...and not treated as a mix and match set at the players discretion. This team in no way resembles the 1979 Pirates; they shouldn't be allowed to play with their uniforms as if they were. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmoothieX Posted November 9, 2009 Share Posted November 9, 2009 The 'Skins looked terrible in the ultra uber whites.The Creamsicles are atrocious, but fun to see once a year or so. I love their current set though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueSky Posted November 9, 2009 Share Posted November 9, 2009 is New Orleans going to wear a throwback this year? I know they did a few times this decade, so I assumed they would this year considering everyone else is.This has been asked several times in the N.O. newspaper's regular "Mailbag" feature and as far as the beat reporters know, there are no plans to wear throwbacks or the gold alt this season. Very disappointing since I think they have one of the best throwbacks in the league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John in KY Posted November 9, 2009 Share Posted November 9, 2009 Bucs jerseys look more "pastel" than they used to.They are, they are based on the original 1976 unis that were more pastel, but were changed in 77 or sometime after.That's correct - per the info in the thread on the creamsicles the original orange shade was only worn once (including the striped socks) for a pre-season game against Miami. They were deemed to difficult to see the numbers from the pressbox (remember the old stadium had a very high/far from the field press box) and on good old analog 1976 TV so they were never worn again that season; just the white jerseys (with almost equally hard to read light orange numbers with red borders) were worn. I only remember seeing one or two Bucs games in 1976; probably when they played the Steelers or Bengals.They changed in 1977 by slightly darkening the orange jersey - it became closer in color to the orange helmet stripe and pants stripe - and by switching the numbers on the white jersey to red numbers with orange borders. The face masks were always orange; they might have darkened them up a little bit in 1977 as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColeJ Posted November 9, 2009 Share Posted November 9, 2009 so this was the first week i've seen the 49ers play in their downdated uniforms...the pants look horrible. the helmets have this really gorgeous gold shine to them. they look like they're really made of gold. then they wear it with what looks like mustard colored sweatpants.the titans columbia blue looked more metallic than 49er gold. and that makes very little sense to me.

Matito Posted November 9, 2009 Share Posted November 9, 2009 The Bucs looked gorgeous. It's a shame I was too young to appreciate them back when they wore them. They really did everything right yesterday, both during the game and as far as doing everything they cant to make the throwback week a success. The orange accents all over the stadium, orange walls, the retro endzone text, the helmet at midfield, all great touches.What I don't understand is why they based the uniforms off the lighter 1976 jerseys when they honored the 1979 team (our first to make the playoffs) at halftime, specifically Lee Roy Selmon. (Though I guess he was drafted in 1976.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Though I guess he was drafted in 1976.)My guess is that it just wasn't that big of a deal. Most people are probably unaware that there were more then one set of creamsicle uniforms. The fans and players wanted to throwback to the old set, and they just picked one and went with it, with most people none the wiser that it wasn't the '79 set.

(Though I guess he was drafted in 1976.)All about history. They wanted to honor the roots...where it all began. I, for one, am so glad they did!

Sguse1 Posted November 9, 2009 Share Posted November 9, 2009 Yeah I think the ravens are one of the few teams that can pull off the monochrome black look. Or monochrome for that matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sport Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 The Broncos oranges are far superior to their navy blue jerseys. If they drop the blue jerseys then they only need one set of white pants and it ties into the team's history while continuing to look modern in today's NFL despite the design of the uniforms being over a decade old. This is a top ten look IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
